Congratulations to Mrs Townsend who has been successfully appointed as the Vice Principal for Inclusion across the Cheam and Worcester Park Hub which includes Cheam Fields Primary Academy, Cheam Common Infants Academy and Cheam Common Junior Academy. She will now share her time between the three schools which will mean she is not at Cheam Fields full time.
Congratulations also goes to Mrs Mann who has been successfully appointed as our new Vice Principal. She will be continuing all her great work on our curriculum as well as taking on lots more exciting challenges.
Congratulations to both Mrs Townsend and Mrs Mann.

LEO Wellbeing Week is based on the Five Ways to Wellbeing: Connect, Give, Be Active, Take Notice and Keep Learning.
Evidence suggests there are 5 steps you can take to improve your mental health and wellbeing. Trying these things out could make you feel more positive so why not give them a go during LEO Wellbeing Week.
There will be a brand new Wellbeing Challenge each day of the week for you to get involved in and a Wellbeing Chart for you to record how you met the challenge.
We have also produced a Wellbeing guide to give you further ideas of activities you can take part in across the week.
The daily themes are as follows: Monday: Connect, Tuesday: Give, Wednesday: Be Active, Thursday: Take Notice and Friday: Keep Learning.
Check out the LEO Distance Learning site for activities and resources.

This collection of eleven evocative, accessible and funny stories tells how a particular animal came to be as it is now. The Whale grew up in God's vegetable patch but was banished to sea when he became too large and crushed all His carrots; the Polar Bear was lured to the North Pole by the other animals who were jealous that she always won the annual beauty contest; the Hare has asked the moon to marry him but can never stretch his ears high enough to hear her reply; the Bee must sip honey all day long to sweeten the bitter demon that runs through his veins . . . each story is a delight for reading alone or aloud.
