What’s on this Week?
Last week there was a whole school focus on all things financial with classes across the school engaged in workshops and lessons around financial education. There were many important life skills being addressed at all stages with children developing a growing awareness of the cost of living and managing a budget. This week our whole school focus is in line with two national awareness raising events. Safer Internet Week and Children’s Mental Health Week. Assemblies and lessons will have a clear focus on the importance of looking after our body and mind and learning about how to stay safe online.
