Just a reminder...

We have decided to re-brand our SPOT bands to SHINE bands in line with our school ethos. 

To achieve and keep your SHINE band you must be:

S - spiritually & socially responsible

H - high achievers

I - Independent

N - Nurtured

E - Empowered to meet life's challenges

Here are a few examples of how you might show this:

• persevere in your learning
• show respect to the school and the people in it
• make sure you are listening at all times
• take pride in your presentation
• demonstrate excellent manners
• try to have a growth mindset
• be a true role model

ALL of the time!

Books we have read so far:

 

  

10.10.23 Trip to the Library

Year 6 were exceptional on their trip to the library and showed exemplary behaviour during their visit. They listened well, enjoyed exploring the library, reading books and taking part in activities such as the scavenger hunt.

This was our first visit and definitely won't be our last.

 

Year 6 SHINE bright while they shine a light on their reading.
