World of Work Week

This week sees many visitors to the school in connection with our World of Work week. We have a wide variety of professions represented. This includes many aspects of our health-related services e.g.  Intensive Care Unit nursing, dietetics, dental nursing, paramedic service, physiotherapy, and other services like police, coastguard service, and RNLI volunteers.  We will also have visits from RHET for farming, a farrier, a pilot, a joiner, a civil servant working with the OECD, someone from hotel management, a stage props creator, a beautician, a head of marketing, and a journalist.

Many thanks go to the fire service personnel, ambulance service personnel and joiner who came in at the end of last week as this week was so busy it was difficult to fit in all the volunteers.  The children really enjoyed your input.

Thanks must go to the teaching staff who organised and pulled together this wide variety of people to ensure every class were timetabled for inputs throughout the week.

We are proud to announce the achievement of our Reading Schools Accreditation.  We have achieved our goals and targets.  The accreditation takes us up to April 2027.  As a school we are continuing our focus on reading for enjoyment and developing our skills and interests in a wide variety of books and texts.  Well done to all of our Reading Star Pupils on the committee your hard work and enthusiasm was very successful.
