Another term comes and goes as Module 5 comes to an end and what a term it has been. This final week really demonstrated what a wide variety of learning opportunities our children have at Marden from the WWII Workshop in Y6, Y5 Litter Picking in the community and Y1 Jobs Dress Up Day! A big thank you to Mr Pope the builder for coming in to see the children in 1Spruce & 1Willow today! We also continued our sports competitions with KS2 Cricket. Please take a look at our devoted sports section.
I am so excited for next term, the calendar of events looks great and I'm sure more is to follow. In the meantime, enjoy your holiday and I look forward to the final term of the year.

National Online Safety
A free online safety guide on influencers.
The concept of influencers is hardly a new one. Through newspaper columns and TV spots, we’ve long been accustomed to hearing informed opinion from, say, Martin Lewis on money, Nigella Lawson on food or Mark Kermode on cinema. How the digital revolution has changed the game, however, is by providing a plethora of platforms from which literally anyone can have their say.
Online, you’ll find hordes of people holding forth on any number of topics: gaming, beauty, travel, fashion, fitness … virtually anything you can think of. What qualifies them as ‘experts’, however? Is it safe for young people to consume the oceans of content that they generate? Our #WakeUpWednesday guide brings you the essential info on the influencer phenomenon.
