πŸ’™ Children’s Mental Health Week πŸ’™
This week, we were proud to support Children’s Mental Health Week by running a range of uplifting and creative activities in the library, giving students the chance to relax, connect and focus on wellbeing in a safe and supportive space.
Students took part in:
Keyring Making
Positivity Clouds
Bracelet Making
Poetry and Pizza
We also ran a Random Acts of Kindness challenge, where students spread kindness throughout the week by completing thoughtful acts for staff and others around school. Students who completed the challenge received a certificate and a small treat as a thank you for making our school a kinder place.
Well done to our poetry winners:
πŸ† E. Todd
πŸ† R. Renjith
πŸ† A. Ahamioje
Thank you to all the students who got involved! Your creativity, kindness and positivity have truly brightened our school community. We are so proud of the care and compassion you showed to one another this week. 😊

πŸ“š Library Ambassadors - Congratulations! πŸ“š

We’re delighted to announce our new Library Ambassadors!

Students applied for the role by completing an application form and then took part in an interview, where they impressed us with their enthusiasm, maturity, and passion for reading and the library.

Being a Library Ambassador is an important responsibility, and these students were chosen because they showed excellent communication skills, commitment, and a genuine desire to support others.

Well done to all of our successful applicants. We are so proud of you and can’t wait to see the positive impact you’ll make in the library this year!
