Living our values

We are balanced and fulfilled.

Important dates

Well-being

Relationship and Sex Education

This week, we explored our changing emotions as we go through puberty. We learnt about the changes that we can control and the changes that we can't control. We review our learning on puberty for boys and girls. 

Next week, we will look forward to Year 6 and transitioning. 

Learning

Laptops for learning - It is a good idea to do this before the summer holiday.

Global Citizenship

CAS - Development of a Socially Responsible Product

Available today at the Tiger Shop is this cool craft (DIY Tie-Dye Butterfly pin) developed by Y10 students as part of their CAS project: Development of a Socially Responsible Product.

50% of the proceeds go to support local charities (Fatima Home, Bangkok).

Events In The World 

You can keep up to date with current events around the world by watching Newsround, an age appropriate news show.  Being aware of current events will help your child to make connections with a range of themes when reading in class, and it is an ideal opportunity for you to model discussing your opinions and using experiences to draw connections between events and people.

• Individual treats can be brought into school with your child in the morning.

• Children will be expected to eat any birthday treats in their classroom.
