Reading Badge Competition Winner 21-22

It is a pleasure to congratulate Edie for her winning entry in this year's reading badge Competition. It was a close event but Edie's entry received 16.5 % of the vote to take the top spot!

In assembly on Monday we also thought about how 61 children will be feeling a little disappointed about the result. We then focused on how our response to failure/losing can define us as real winners. Please support all of your children with their attitude to learning and life. I do hope they all accept they can't always win but try even harder at every opportunity to be the best they can be. This half-term. why not try the 'Drawing a Legacy' Backdrop competition shared in the next segment.

As a school we cherish opportunities to promote reading and I look forward to seeing Edie's design being worn by all the children as they read through the year.

A final congratulations and thank you to Edie and also to all the children who took a risk to enter the competition this year. Remember:

'Drawing A Legacy' Competition

Isabel, Louise, Jessica and Dorothy came to me in September with the idea of a drawing competition. I suggested it would be great to link this to legacy and we thought designing the back stage backdrop with a more permanent positive Little Green message might benefit the whole school and leave a positive legacy for others to reflect on and embrace. The girls shared their idea last week in assembly. Here's a quick reminder:

Rules:

Children have until the first Friday after half term to design a new back-drop to replace the 'School of Rock'.

The winning entry will be painted on to the back-drop and serve as a positive promotion of the school during assemblies and events etc.

We are looking for something linked to the school ethos that is inspirational and drives a positive school message.
