All money raised by filling the boxes was sent to the ‘Disaster Emergency Committee’ (DEC) who have launched a specific appeal to support the people in Southern Turkey and Syria following the devastating earthquakes last month.

School of Character Kitemark

We are very thrilled and very proud to say that, following a comprehensive inspection we have ‘met the exacting standards required to be awarded the School of Character’ Kitemark.’ This is a very prestigious award which recognises that we teach the children sound values which enable them to make good choices. There were rigorous interviews with staff and Governors and two children, Ivie and Eshan from Year 2, were splendid ambassadors for our school. The report is very glowing and here is an excerpt: ‘The two pupils who showed me around the school were confident and well-informed regarding the values which the school reinforce at every turn. It is also clear that learning experiences at the school afford them the ability to grow and develop in a nurturing environment, which does not shy away from providing both challenge and personal care in equal measure.’
