Dancing in the corridors

By Collective worship, Community, Glee, Mental Health, Music, News, PSHE

Over the past three weeks, our corridors have been filled with uplifting gospel music. And now, we have transitioned to exploring the world of jazz. Through this musical journey, our goal is to familiarise our children with different genres of music and broaden their musical horizons.

 

Rest assured, despite our newfound musical enthusiasm, we are still maintaining our commitment to orderly behaviour in the corridors. We continue to encourage our students to walk smartly and responsibly. However, you may notice a slight swing in our step as we embrace the rhythms and melodies of these captivating genres!

By exposing our children to a diverse range of musical styles, we aim to ignite their curiosity, and expand their appreciation for music.

The King’s Coronation

By Collective worship, Community, Newsletter, PSHE, PTA

Even though we were all very disappointed about the picnic being cancelled, we still had a lovely afternoon together.

Here are a few photos of the children, even nursery, singing the National Anthem and parading their crowns.

Wishing you a restful weekend, celebrating this historical event.

Thank you,

Mrs Gurner

PTA Auction

By Collective worship, Community, Fund Raising, PTA

Last night the PTA hosted their first auction. This week we were all slightly nervous. Unsure if the event would come together – but I am thrilled to announce that it was a HUGE success!

Mr Thompson hosted the evening and had us all in fits of giggles.

Thank you so much to everyone who made the auction happen. Thank you to the PTA, the kind companies that gave generous donations and the volunteers who served canapés and drinks.

We are so blessed to have you as part of our school community.

The PTA will let you know how much money they have raised shortly. All money raised will go towards creating a reading hub and quiet area in the key stage 2 playground.

Thank you,

Mrs Gurner

Litter Pick

By Collective worship, Community, House Jericho, PSHE

Last week, Miss Widdop and Mr Dawson led an assembly teaching children about the importance of keeping our environment litter free. Litter endangers our environment, our wildlife, and our economy. It pollutes our neighbourhoods, and destroys our school’s natural beauty.

On a Friday afternoon, children can volunteer to help Mr Hetherington pick litter. Each week, children from different classes can volunteer 20 minutes of their time to keep our school clean.

House Jericho, our eco warriors, have purchased the equipment needed to pick litter safely. In a few weeks, House Jericho will talk about the litter that they have found and discuss ways forward.

Thank you children, we appreciate your support.

Here are a few photos from the litter pick.

Anti-Bullying Policy

Anti-Bullying Policy

Today in collective worship, house leaders presented our Anti-Bully Policy to the children. They were TRULY FABULOUS! This policy clearly explains exactly what children need to do if they experience bullying. A copy can be found in classrooms and on our school website.

Remember bullying is… Several Times On Purpose (STOP).

I will attach a copy of the policy in my next post.

Thank you,
