Lord, we thank You for the love You have poured out on us through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. May His resurrection be a source of inspiration and renewal for us all. Help us to grasp the depth of your love and the power of redemption. Amen. Wishing all our families a happy and holy Easter.
Neurodiversity Celebration Week In school we have created a Diversity Tree, using children's fingerprints, to celebrate and reinforce how no two people are the same. Just as we have been learning how everyone has a unique way of thinking, our Diversity Tree will be a lasting reminder that each of us have individual fingerprints too. We have been thinking about and celebrating the strengths and talents of people who think and learn differently. Neurodiversity Celebration Week has given us another opportunity to remember the importance of being kind and accepting of everyone. Neurodiversity Celebration Week reminds us that whatever our differences and challenges, everyone also has their own talents. Many people who have ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia or Tourette Syndrome and experienced challenges in school, are now very successful. In fact, many say their success is because of their unique way of thinking.
Year 1 had a truly wonderful time on their trip to the Lookout Centre in Bracknell! The day was packed with exciting activities that really encouraged teamwork and respect among the children. They faced the challenge of trying to open a treasure chest, which sparked their curiosity and collaboration. In addition to that, they got creative making paper creations that could soar in the wind, and enjoyed some fun water play that had everyone laughing. Building houses together showcased their fantastic teamwork skills as they worked hand-in-hand to design and construct their own little structures. The highlight of their day was the engaging show that introduced them to light and fire. All in all, it was a fantastic day of exploration and discovery!
This year our Mini Vinnies, Buddies and Anti-Bullying Ambassadors organised a joint Lenten charity appeal. They chose to support Blue Cross – an animal welfare charity. Blue Cross believes that nobody should have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their pet and so they provide pet food to owners across the country, helping ensure pets and owners can stay together during difficult times. By choosing to support Blue Cross, we are acknowledging how important pets are to family life and how they have a positive impact on our mental health and happiness. Many thanks for all your support with this project.
A huge thank you to Mrs Newman and Mrs Nash for training all the Reception children over the past fortnight showing them how to use their balance bikes with care and precision. The children have been working on their core strength, balance skills, co-ordination as well as their listening skills. Mrs Newman and Mrs Nash said the children have worked exceptionally hard and have all been amazing. Well done children!
