A number of our Year 6 children represented our school today in an event to celebrate the Re-Dedication of the War Memorial on Lord Street, which is 100 years old this year. They took part in the event alongside members of the armed forces and many veterans. The children were absolutely delighted to meet HRH Princess Anne, who spoke with them after the ceremony. The children were also interviewed by reporters from the BBC. An exciting and very memorable time was had by all. 

A huge well done to everyone who prepared and presented a manifesto for the Council Elections. Everyone did an excellent job and we are very proud of you.

Congratulations to our newly elected councillors!

Children in Key Stage 2 have been learning about Democracy this week as they have been preparing for the election of the School and Eco-Council. Children were invited to prepare manifestos, which they presented to their class and/ or other classes in the Key Stage. 

We are enormously proud of all the children who put themselves forward for this opportunity. This shows great courage. The work that children put into their manifestos was tremendous and children presented their ideas with confidence. Congratulations! 

The winners of the elections will be announced later in the week. 

We all enjoyed having a special Mission Day in school on Thursday 14th September. Children explored the Mission Statement and celebrated some different ways in which we can follow in the footsteps of Jesus. Children sang our Come & See song - please see the Class Pages for a short video of the singers in action. 

As part of the day, children looked at values that they feel are important within our school community and in the wider world. The values they chose are: 

Helping Others, Friendship, Courage, Respect, Trust and Loyalty. 

Well done children! 

Over the summer holidays Ciara, Sylvie and Charlotte decided to raise some money for Queenscourt Hospice. They spent several weeks making bracelets which they sold on 10th August, outside Ciara's house. The girls raised a tremendous £135 for this very worthy cause. 

We are very proud of you girls - what a wonderful example to us all!
