With Christ at our side to guide us,
we shine in all that we do.

Y4 at the Youth Village

By

We arrived at the Youth Village and were greeted by beautiful sunshine! The children have settled in really well and have been well fed.  They have completed a couple of activities so far and have had fun playing out.

Here they are having fun:

The children had a good night sleep but woke up to hailstones this morning! We’ve had all weathers today – hail, rain and beautiful sunshine!

The boys helped with washing up the breakfast dishes then we played a few games.

This morning, the children completed a carousel of activities including making gratitude bracelets for someone they’re thankful to, a team building activity, getting creative with art and learning to sign the Our Father.

After lunch, we walked to the woods to explore and enjoyed being out in nature.

We squeezed every last drop out of the day with more fun and games around the lodges. They must be tired now??!!

Another super day on Friday – a few more photos to share:

Robinwood 2023

By

We had an action packed few days on this year’s residential. The children took part in every activity with a smile on their face (even the Piranha Pool!) and great determination. They were well-mannered and a pleasure to spend time with. We hope they enjoyed the trip as much as we did!

Children’s Mental Health Week

By

This week, we’ve been celebrating Children’s Mental Health Week. Our infant classes had an assembly from Miss Dixon and our junior classes had an extra special visitor. Lisa, from BlueJay Wellness, spoke to the junior classes about how to connect with others and why our connections help our own and other people’s mental health and well-being.
In our house meetings, we created jigsaw pieces that celebrate how we all connect as a school community. These will soon be on display for all our children to see.
