Read MoreWebsite, Logo, Mission Statement, Aims and Values Launch!
Published 06/11/15I have enjoyed working with our house captains, exploring our new mission statement and aims and looking at the wording behind it. Part of our exploration was what a lifelong learner is and their considerations were excellent. The quote this week signifies the culmination of these discussions; a motivation to learn and a love of learning at all stages in our life. The children have been so motivated to put together the information about our Federation mission statement, aims, slogan and values in an accessible format for all during Friday worship and I think you will agree that they did a really good job. It was nice to see our Chair of Governors along with some other Governors and so many parents in both schools enjoying their delivery and it was special to have tea and biscuits with families to celebrate this next important step.

Read MoreParish Council Visit - Mock meeting!
Published 06/11/15Class 4 were privileged to have a visit from 3 of our parish councillors this week to enable them to experience democracy in action as part of our continuing study of British values.
The class learnt about how parish councils work and were organised into a council, with an elected chair and vice chair. With the experience of the real councillors, they were able to appreciate first-hand how to organise a meeting and all got to learn valuable debating, listening and speaking and listening skills. The councillors were impressed with our children’s knowledge about local issues and their passion, not only for their school, but its surrounding locality.
Future plans to work together again are afoot, with 6 junior parish councillors from school due to join part of a full parish council meeting later in the month. Maybe a future politician or prime minister is amongst us!
