This week our school community came together to mark Remembrance Day.
We created time and space for children to pause, reflect and think about the people who have served and sacrificed in times of conflict. At 11 o’clock, pupils and staff observed a two-minute silence, showing great respect and maturity.
Moments like these help children develop empathy, gratitude and an understanding of the importance of peace. ❤️🌺

Miss Deal generously gave up part of her holiday to continue developing additional green spaces across the school grounds. We are now working with experts in biodiversity and environmental sustainability to explore how we can further enhance these areas. Through this work, we aim to embed sustainability within our school ethos and nurture a lasting appreciation of the natural world, helping our children understand their role in caring for the environment for years to come. 🌳🌳🌍

One of today’s life skills sessions focused on decorating biscuits for Remembrance Day.
Through this activity, children developed their fine motor skills, creativity, independence and ability to follow instructions, while practising patience, concentration and working together.
It was also a lovely opportunity to reflect on the importance of Remembrance Day and why we take time to remember those who have served and sacrificed 🌹
