A slightly calmer week this week, with the awareness of anti bullying being highlighted across the school by everyone wearing odd socks – it definitely put smiles on people’s faces! The learning going on has been absolutely fantastic across the school and so many golden stickers given out by myself and Mr Hick! We have 4 days to bring our STAR curriculum to an end (with INSET day on Friday 27th November) before we start a wonderful chunk of learning based on Christmas and Winter. On the INSET day, we are all updating our First Aid training, and the teaching staff will be unpicking the art of pedagogy further as well as developing how to teach metacognitive skills.
Despite Covid and current restrictions, we are still working hard to bring together our school community. Everything organised is within the current guidance and no-one is under any pressure to participate. My thanks go to the rather small team from the PTFA, who have worked hard to organise these events and raise money for the PTFA, which all children in the school benefit from. Even if you are anxious about Covid and choose not to participate in the activities, I am sure you will join me in thanking the work of the PTFA, especially Carly, Yvonne and Miss Hawken. If you are interested in supporting more events next year, please do not hesitate to contact us – all support is appreciated!
