Friendship, New Adventures, Endings, Perseveranceโฆ
I had the privilege of going away last weekend with Year 6 on their residential. I say privilege as, although we all can back sleep deprived and exhausted, seeing the children in this environment is really so rewarding. They made me so proud to be part of our school and their enthusiasm, manners, approach to everything and perseverance to it all was commendable.
Their teamwork was excellent and we laughed more than I would normally laugh in a weekend - thank you Year 6 for a fantastic time away!
It made me reflect on the skills that are developed on trips like this and the experiences that we want everyone to develop before leaving All Saints. As we are approaching the end of the school year and thinking about Year 6 moving onto their next adventure, what do we want them to leave us with.
This then takes us back to the route of everything, our Vision, of helping children be โHealthy, Happy and Confidentโ, which is what we aim for in all children that attend our school. There may be points where we feel less of these things for many reasons, but teaching skills such as resilience and perseverance certainly goes a long way to helping children (and adults!) lead a healthier, happier and more confident life.
Thanks again to all of the children for a great weekend and a special thanks to all of the staff who made it possible to go!

Hijri New Year - Saturday 6th July - Sunday 7th July 2024
The Islamic New Year marks the beginning of the lunar Hijri year.
The Islamic New Year, also called the Hijri New Year, is the day that marks the beginning of a new lunar Hijri year, and is the day on which the year count is incremented. The first day of the Islamic year is observed by most Muslims on the first day of the month of Muharram.
There have been lots of goings on this term so far - have a look what Year 4 and Year 6 have been getting up to this week โฆ
Apologies about the lack of Newsletter last week - my only excuse is a busy weekend with Year 6!
Another fun filled week, this week with our football fundraiser on Thursday - thanks for Miss England for all of the organising - the children loved it! Well done to Evie, in Year 3 for winning the most money raised. We raised over ยฃ390, which will be put towards our new Library project.
I have been busy reading all of the end of year reports and adding my comments, it makes me quite emotional reading how well children are doing both socially and academically. I am sure there will be lots of proud parents when they are sent out on the 17th July.
Next Thursday, the children will be taking part in transition morning. The following staff are in each class next year:
Nursery - Mrs Tennant and Miss Caveney
Reception - Miss Sprason
EYFS Support Staff - Miss Bulger, Mrs Pollitt, Miss Hughes and Miss Vowles
Year 1 - Mrs Bloor, Miss Radcliffe and Mrs Sheridan
Year 2 - Miss Nulty and Mrs Farrimond
Year 3 - Miss Tanner and Miss Joelle
Year 4 - Mr Hogan and Mrs Horton
Year 5 - Miss England and Mrs Allen
Year 6 - Mrs Casey and Mrs Tierney
I wish everyone a lovely weekend and look forward to seeing all the children on Monday.
Mrs Flatman
