Monday 13 March 2023 Lots of Socks for World Down Syndrome Day World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD), on the 21st of March, is a global awareness day which has been officially observed by the United Nations since 2012.On 21st March, we want the children to wear some socks that are going to get noticed! They might be mismatched socks or their craziest and most colourful socks. The idea is to start a conversation, so when people ask about their socks, they can tell them, “I’m wearing them to raise awareness of Down syndrome”.As well as encouraging the pupils to wear their craziest socks we would massively appreciate donations of £1 to help raise money for a local Down Syndrome Group, Archie’s Smile, which supports families in our community ??????

Thursday 6 January 2022 Gaming and Social Media Many children will have received new technological devices this Christmas - phones, games consoles, Ipads, laptops etc. As a school we are committed to keeping our children safe whilst online during the school day, however, we have little control over what happens once they are at home. To support parents/carers in understanding the risks associated with many games, social media apps and online gaming influencers, we have updated our E-Safety site with guides on newer consoles such as the PlayStation 5 and recent popular games/apps.Information can be found on our website E-Safety Page by clicking here. Together we can ensure that our children stay safe online and use new technology appropriately. Thank you for your continued support.
