Congratulations to Grigory!
He has recently completed Level 3 and can now perform a number of challenging exercises, such as pulling himself up to chin level on the high bar, completing a squat on a strength jump off the vault, swinging over from German hang and pulling back to hang on the rings — and many more impressive skills!
He also performed exceptionally well at the Summer Club Championships, where he earned two bronze medals out of 11 competitors for his vault jumps and floor routine.
We're thrilled to announce that Elsie earned her yellow belt! What an incredible achievement! We're all super proud of her dedication and focus.
OW has enjoyed a great Summer of cricket. He plays for Old Northamptonians in the Under 11's Northants and South Northants league and helped his team to win the league last Sunday. He also plays for the Northampton district cricket team helping them win all of their matches so far. Keep up the great work Oscar
We want to send a huge shout-out to one of our amazing parents, Chris, who recently completed an incredible abseil down the iconic Northampton Lift Tower! Despite facing high winds that moved the challenge indoors, Chris showed incredible determination. More importantly, he managed to raise a fantastic £332 for The Hope Centre, a truly worthy cause. What an inspiring achievement!
Process for parents and carers if you have concerns about your child's mental health or well-being.
At times, we can become concerned about our child's health and wellbeing, and it can sometimes be difficult to know where to go for support and guidance. Don't forget that we have a section on our school website that can signpost you to help and guidance for both your children and for yourself.
But if you would like to bring anything to our attention, then the flowchart below will help you know who to go to and what we are able to do to help you and your child in school.
Any questions, just get in touch with your child's class teacher.
As a parent, it can often be such a worry with regards to our children.
But there is support out there.
If you have any concerns about your child, including their mental health, we can help and there are other organisations that offer support and guidance. Please speak to your child's class teacher or contact the charity Young Minds on the details below.
We wanted to remind parents/carers to please drive and park legally, safely and responsibly when dropping off and collecting your child/ren from school. We encourage parents/residents to report dangerous driving and parking using the below link.
