Remembrance Day Service

On Tuesday, our school community came together in the playground for a moving Remembrance Day assembly. The service was led by Miss Mowbray and Turing Class, along with pupils from Years 4, 5 and 6 who are members of the Brownies, Guides, Cubs and Scouts. These children proudly wore their uniforms as a mark of respect - a long-standing tradition within their organisations that honours those who have served in the Armed Forces and reflects the values of community and remembrance they uphold.

We observed a two-minute silence together, creating a moment of stillness and reflection across the playground. The silence was beautifully concluded with The Last Post, performed on the flute.

Miss Cooper, who serves as a Standard Bearer for the Royal British Legion, raised the Legion flag as part of the ceremony. 

It was a thoughtful and dignified service, and we are proud of all the children for the respect and sense of reverence they showed throughout.

Building a World of Kindness in Year 2

Year 2 had a fantastic and thoughtful Anti-Bullying Week, focusing on how we can all contribute to a kinder school and community. Within their PSHE lesson, the children were asked to imagine: "What does my World of Kindness look like?"

The pupils shared wonderful, insightful ideas about how they can actively show kindness every day. To organise their responses, the children worked on mind maps, visually linking different actions and feelings to the central theme of kindness. Their maps included actions like sharing, listening to friends, using kind words, helping someone who is sad, and inviting everyone to play.

This exercise was a powerful way for Year 2 to understand that creating a world free from bullying starts with their own choices and actions. They saw how small acts of consideration and empathy build a larger, supportive environment where everyone feels safe and respected.
