  • Y5/6 Residential Trip to White Hall

    Wed 08 Mar 2023 Jill Warren

    From Monday 6th - Wednesday 8th March our intrepid adventurers from Year 5 and 6 went off to White Hall in the Peak District for 2 days of outdoor activities.

    They got to try out stream scrambling, climbing, caving, low ropes, and have a go on the zip wire and leap of faith. The children all did brilliantly, challenging themselves and learning to take risks safely. They demonstrated resilience and perseverance, and worked well in teams, supporting each other.

    A huge thanks goes to all the staff at White Hall, and to those teachers and volunteers who accompanied the children on the trip. We all had a brilliant time!

  • E-safety sessions

    Sat 04 Mar 2023

    Thank you to all the parents that reviewed the E-safety policy and left comments. The parents that responded said it was vey comprehensive and others felt it was very long. These thoughts have used to update the policy which can be found on the school website along with the child friendly one too, which is a lot shorter.

    Within the survey, there was also requests for a professional to lead sessions on how to keep your child safe online. Because of this wish, the school has purchased an information sharing workshop from Derbyshire County Councils E-safety expert Traci Good. In this session, she will be sharing the latest apps, as well as, knowing what to do if your child has seen something upsetting online or they have shared or posted something they shouldn't have.

    There will be two opportunities to take part in these sessions.

    One on Monday April 24th (1pm – 2pm) and the other on Wednesday April 26th (6pm – 7pm).

    If you would like to come along please sign up using the following link at the end of this message.

    If you would like to be part of this but the time is inconvenient, please use the link below to share this with us. If there is enough interest we maybe able to record this for you and share if afterwards.
