As part of the positive feedback from parents/carers from the period of ‘lock down’ we have decided that we would put on our website things we have talk about during assembly times so that you are able to continue the conversations at home. This is a really valuable time for us at school, learning about the world we live in, exploring different views and opinions, learning how to question and challenge and to think out our core values.

We started off with a quiz about some key things about the world we live in … strengthening some of our understanding about the civil rights movement and racial equality, as well as the refugee situation. We can’t think about these, unless we have a developing understanding of where countries are in the world, and the world leaders. See if you can remember any of these – it’s hard, so you may need a family discussion!

We couldn’t ignore the impact that Covid-19 is having on our lives. We have all adapted brilliantly to changes at school and the kindness shown to other children and staff has been overwhelming.  Changes will happen throughout life; something we have control over, and something we won’t.
