Junior Leadership Team

As part of the overall leadership of the academy we have a Junior Leadership team led by Our Head Boy, Head Girl and Deputies.

Each year group from year 2 upwards has representation on this committee. They meet with the Senior Leadership Team every two weeks to discuss suggestions from children, charity work and changes to school curriculum. The representatives for this year are;

Every two weeks they feedback to their classmates and bring suggestions and ideas to the next committee meeting. An excellent way to develop democracy and leadership amongst our children.

Parent Suggestions

Encourage children to drink water through out the day -

Children can access there water bottles at any time during the day and are encouraged to

take them out during break and lunch time.

Look at fees for Care Club -

We are currently comparing the cost of fees charged.

Dementia Champions

Our Year 5 children are working with Bee Active #beeactivestaff at Rowan Court care home to develop as Dementia Champions

A Dementia Friends Champion is a volunteer who encourages others to make a positive difference to people living with dementia in their community. They do this by working with people with dementia helping to maintain their physical and mental wellbeing. All of the children will have the opportunity to take part in this initiative using this term’s gospel values of LOVE and COMPASSION

October Half Term

Should you need childcare or an opportunity for your child to let off steam during the October Half Term Bee Active will be running a holiday camp at Newcastle college. Further details and booking can be found at www.beeactive.co.uk. The children love their Bee active sessions at school so you know they will be in good hands.
