Behaviour Management Conversations
Behaviour Management Conversations
In April 2021 we asked you to complete a google form that explained our approach to behaviour management. We had very positive feedback but only 24 responses. We have updated this form based on feedback and would love to find out what the community thinks about behaviour management. We have included a question about how we define poor behaviour in a class and we are very interested in your views. We have asked our children and will be asking staff and governors also. We look forward to sharing the results and our next steps.
All our views are important - we are the community together. Click the link below to tell us what you think - click the link below:
FOLG SCHOOL DISCO THANK YOU
FOLG SCHOOL DISCO THANK YOU
It was a pleasure to see how much fun was had by the children at our Year 3/4 and Year 5/6 school discoes. a HUGE thank you to all the adults that volunteer their time to make the vent a possibility. A special thank you to the FGL staff who put in the effort and hours to organise the event, book the DJ, collect tickets, complete risk assessments etc. Thank you to everyone - a great team effort!
Animal Therapy - supporting the community
Animal Therapy - supporting the community
We are very proud of the many different ways the school works to offer a range of different interventions and support for children across the school. From targeted academic interventions to social wellbeing groups, counselling to Lexia, Family Support Working to Watford Positive Minds, Safe Hands approaches to Self Esteem Workshops - the team really do work hard to do everything a mainstream school can do to make the difference. For some our our children and families, we are also able to offer an amazing experience with horse riding, grooming and animal welfare. Parents report incredible positive and calming experiences supporting their children to develop confidence, self regulation and, perhaps, future animal experts! Thank you to Ms. Rowland and the whole community for continuing to develop this initiative and for identifying so many different support approaches to so many different individual needs.

Stationery sets
Thank you to everyone who ordered stationery sets - it was the first time FOLG had tried this and it seemed to go relatively smoothly. All packs should have now been received by those who placed orders.
If you missed out on ordering stationery sets we have received new stock and will be opening the opportunity to order on PTA events again - the introductory price has unfortunately finished so packs will now be priced at a very competitive £8 (still far cheaper than you can source on the high street!) and can be ordered via: www.pta-events.co.uk/folg. Information of what is contained in the packs can be found at this link.
Second hand uniform
Good quality second hand uniform can be ordered from Faye via folg-uniform@littlegreen.herts.sch.uk - most items are just 50p. Send an email outlining the items you wish to order - remember to include sizes and your child's class - you will then receive an email to let you know when your items are ready to collect from the school office.

Supporting you and your family through the cost-of-living crisis
The rising cost of living is making many of us feel scared, stressed and anxious. You may be worried about paying rent alongside putting food on the table - or anxious about how these uncertain times may be impacting your family. Our new web guide and blog on money and mental health offers advice on supporting your own, and your child’s, wellbeing through the cost-of-living crisis. We’ve also included lots of suggestions of where to find practical financial support if you’re struggling. We hope this helps

Calling all Key Stage 2 pupils in Hertfordshire!
As advertised on the Grid and in the Schools Bulletin, Hertfordshire Heroes is encouraging all Key Stage 2 pupils in Hertfordshire to take part in our annual Christmas Art Competition by 21 November 2022. This year, we invite children to create artwork depicting 2022 to bring “Christmas cheer” to military personnel for their chance to win a day of adventure at the UK military’s strategic headquarters, Northwood HQ. A winner will be chosen from each year group in Key Stage 2.
The artwork will be shared with those serving in the Armed Forces who are working away from their families at Christmas to help bring them some “Christmas Cheer”. This information is also located online at www.hertfordshireheroes.org/christmasart.
To enter the competition:
The children should create artwork no larger than A3 size (with no glitter) which incorporates the following:
depicting events important to you in 2022
Christmas or winter scene
The Military - British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force .
The phrase, ‘Wishing our military heroes a Merry Christmas from (name of school)’.
Entries must be received by 21st November either by post or via email.
Along with your submissions please include the name of your school, contact name, contact number and total number of entries submitted.
If submitting by post, please write (or ensure the student has legibly written) the name and age of the pupil, year group, class and school on the back of the picture and send to:
Hertfordshire Heroes Christmas Art Competition

If submitting via email, please name each file “Nameofschool_Year_Name_Surname_Age” and email your entries to Hertfordshire Heroes or use SchoolsFX if sending multiple files.
Further Guidance
The competition is open to all Hertfordshire Key Stage 2 pupils.
By entering the competition, you accept that the artwork will be published and otherwise used. Unfortunately, pictures cannot be returned.
Please note that the judging and distribution of the artwork is dependent on the availability of staff at Northwood HQ and that the competition may be subject to change due to the nature of military operations.
Winning entries
A winner will be chosen from Year 3, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6.
The 2022 competition will be judged by personnel at Northwood HQ - the UK’s principal military headquarters – who then plan to distribute the art to armed forces personnel working away from home at Christmas.
With the relevant school Headteacher, Hertfordshire County Council will arrange for the winning child to receive a certificate in line with any Government regulations for COVID-19 at the time. We plan to alert the winning school before the end of term on 21 December 2022.
Photos of the winning entries will be featured on www.hertfordshireheroes.org and on Hertfordshire County Council social media.
We will seek permission to use photos of the winning artist on Hertfordshire County Council’s website, Hertfordshire Heroes website and in press releases.
The winning artist from each year group will win a “day of adventure” at Northwood HQ. This will be arranged subject to Government guidance at the time.
Hertfordshire Armed Forces Covenant Board works in partnership to deliver the Armed Forces Covenant locally. It brings together business, military organisations, charities, NHS and local authorities who work in partnership to ensure that no veteran faces a disadvantage when accessing public services, the Armed Forces community is honoured and celebrated for the sacrifices they have made, and the military and civilian communities are well integrated.
Northwood HQ in Eastbury, Hertfordshire, is a very important military base that makes decisions about joint and combined military operations involving the Navy, RAF and the Army worldwide.
Many thanks,
