Well Being
PSHE
Our focus this half term is...
"We are celebrating people who persevere with a challenge."
Sleep
A huge factor that ensures our Well-being remains positive is sleep. Bedtimes can often be a tricky or challenging part of the day.
Watch the video below to see some quick and easy tips on how to gain the right amount of sleep for yourself and for our students.

New Learning Theme

| Key Driving Questions: How does water impact our own and the lives of others in cultures different to our own? How does the world recycle its water? Why is there a water crisis in the world? |

Event 1: Year 5 Bring Buy and Bake Sale - Date To be confirmed
Students are encouraged to bring in any old or second hand items to sell at our back sale. We need to start collecting now so that we can try to raise as much money as possible.
Students could bring things like old toys, books and games to sell at the event. All items must be in working order and should be brought to class teachers who will store them in preparation for the event.
Eco Bricks - Plastic Appeal
Our Year 2 buddies are currently looking at the idea of sustainability and are trying to build and create 'Eco Bricks'. We have volunteered to help them as they are trying to develop their outdoor classroom by using the bricks to build planters and shaded spaces.
We need your help! Students are encouraged to bring in their used plastic waste. Please ensure this washed first.
