• Whole School Assembly - Remembrance

  Tue 11 Nov 2025

  To mark Remembrance Day, the whole school came together to participate in a 2 minute silence. We heard from different people who shared how and where they remember the sacrifices made by people who fought to preserve our freedoms. Miss Whaites played for us to mark the start and end of our silence.

  We would also like to thank Liara and Phoebe who have been selling poppies over the last week, from which all donations go to the Royal British Legion.

  

• Whole School Assembly - Anti-Bullying Week starts with🧦Odd Socks Day🧦

  Mon 10 Nov 2025

  Today launched this year's Anti-Bullying week.
  
  All of the children have found out about why we are wearing odd socks today. They have watched this year's video about empowerment. That it is important to speak up about in-person and online bullying and that their power can be used for good to end bullying.
  The video can be found by following this link:

  The children in KS2 have looked at the topic of bullying in a bit more detail. They have discussed the different roles involved in a situation and how they can speak up to stop this. Below is the link to the video they have watched which may help you discuss this topic at home.

• BRIGHT Assembly - Belief

  Wed 05 Nov 2025

  In the week's BRIGHT we read 'The Cave' by Rob Hodgson. We talked about the times we need to believe in ourselves (just like the 'cave creatures' in the story) so we can be brave and do things out of our own comfort zone. When we do this, exciting things can happen!
