Blog – 26th November 2021

This week, our assemblies were based on the theme of Teamwork on Monday with our Character Education virtue of kindness. These followed on well from the Children in Need theme of “One Kind Word” last week and the teamwork classes demonstrated when creating their dances. 

Children in Need

We managed to raise £189.90 for Children in Need; thank you for all the kind donations sent in. The voting has been popular for the Strictly style dances created by each class. These are available via Facebook, and we will close the voting on Monday morning announcing the winners early next week.

Road Safety

Many thanks to the Fire Brigade who came into the academy on Monday and delivered three assemblies to highlight the importance of road safety.  The children took away very important messages that are particularly important as winter is approaching. Check out our Gallery page for more photographs!

Teesside at Christmas Appeal

We would like to support the Teesside at Christmas Appeal who are looking to give filled shoe boxes of gifts and essentials to those who would go without at Christmas. Please use the link below or look at the posters below to find details of what is recommended to go in the shoe boxes.  If anyone would like to donate a filled shoe box or to send items in that we can make boxes up in school, then please do so by Monday 29th November, so we can give them to this small, local charity.

Blog – 19th November 2021

This week, our assemblies were based on the Anti-Bullying Week theme of “One Kind Word” with Odd Socks Day on Monday celebrating individuality. We have also enjoyed Children in Need day, reminding children of the significance of this important charity.

Children in Need

The children enjoyed working on the theme this year which is ‘Together We Can’. Our dance competition has proved very popular and showed great teamwork.  Look out for the videos on FaceBook, where you can vote for your favourite dance. Thank you for all the donations brought in today; we will let you know how much we raised in due course.

Action for Happiness

This month’s theme is New Ways November. Action for Happiness are encouraging you to try something new!  Learning something new or getting involved in an activity that really absorbs and interests us is great for our wellbeing. Keeping our brains active is not only good for us physically but it can help you feel you are flourishing as you see yourself make progress with a new skill, or just make you smile as you make a mess and decide to start again. 🙂  Being playful and trying new things is important, as is remembering that it’s OK not to get it right first time – change “I can’t do it”, into “I can’t do it…yet!” This month’s calendar is full of ideas to help you decide what to try next.

Congratulations to B2S  who have won our Awesome competition this week.
