Our Socials

Water Safety Code Cartoon This week is national 'Drowning Prevention Week' and never have I felt so strongly about the need to educate our children on the dangers of open water. Over the May half term, a catastrophic number of children and adults lost their lives to drowning. Please have that chat with your children to make sure that they are aware of the dangers of open water. We will be covering this in school also but as always, the message hits home even harder when school and home work together 🥰
Here is a little video that you could watch together and then chat about https://vimeo.com/863949936

This half term, our Christian value is ‘truthfulness’ 💫 The children will be exploring this over the next 5 wks. We always encourage our children to tell the truth no matter what but that’s not always easy to do…. For children or adults as no-one wants to disappoint or hurt the feelings of others 🥰
Well, if you’ve had a wknd like mine where everything that could have gone wrong has….. spilled Costas, full face plant injuries from a scooter accident (not me🤣) 🥲 then a bit of Sunday afternoon positivity might well be needed 🥰 So, let’s head off into next week hoping for lots of happy moments and embrace the opportunity to start a new week! 🎉🤩
Please check out next weeks dates (attached) We have a new date booked in for Sports day, lots of new clubs starting and the Y6 residential to Gulliver’s World 🤩 Please note that there is no Bright Lights this week but we will have our final session of the year in early July ☺️
Have a lovely Sunday afternoon and evening everyone and see you all tomorrow for an 8.45am start 💚💫 2 Likes
