Each English module begins with a hook which engages children and generates curiosity in the new topic. Year 2 ae beginning to write about The Great Fire of London and so to generate a deeper understanding of fire - how it moves, smells and spreads. They took part in a camp fire where they generated language to describe the fire and of course enjoyed toasting some marshmallows as a reward for all of their hard work. ... See MoreSee Less

Today, our Mental Health Ambassadors began their training from the Thought-full team.

In Year 5 and 6 children have the opportunity to apply to be a MHA - they write their applications and then the strongest candidates are chosen. The children then take part in 2 afternoons of training to prepare them for the important role.

The MHAs play an important role in helping to promote positive mental health and wellbeing across our school. They are pupils who help to make sure that everyone feels included, supported and listened to.

Through activities, conversations and wellbeing initiatives, our ambassadors encourage children to talk about their feelings, look after their wellbeing and know that it is always okay to ask for help. They also help to share children’s ideas and promote a kind, caring and supportive school community.

We are incredibly proud of our Mental Health Ambassadors for taking on this important responsibility and for helping to make our school a place where everyone’s wellbeing matters. ... See MoreSee Less

My boy is so happy to be doing this for the second year. He really does care about the well being of others. Such an important skill for the children to learn. 😊

Today, our children took part in the exciting process of electing our new Junior Governors!

Each Year 6 child had the opportunity to apply for the role, which sits above our School Council and plays an important part in ensuring that children’s voices, ideas and opinions are heard across our school. Today, the candidates delivered their speeches to the school, sharing why they would make a great Junior Governor. Following the speeches, children had the opportunity to vote for the candidate they would like to see take on the role.

Well done to all of our candidates for their confidence, enthusiasm and commitment to representing their peers. We are incredibly proud of you all! ... See MoreSee Less
