Our values were also refreshed in 2023. We encourage everyone in our school community to demonstrate these values and they are celebrated each week in assembly. Children are awarded Core Values stickers and aim to complete their core values chart.
In October 2024, we held a competition to create 6 Core Values Creatures. These are shown below. The children also decided what these creatures would do and say. These creatures help our children to understand how to demonstrate and develop our core values within themselves.
