Good afternoon,

It’s hard to believe how quickly this term is flying by!

Upcoming Weeks:

As we approach the final stretch, the energy and excitement across the school are unmistakable. We have a wonderfully busy few weeks ahead, packed with enriching experiences for all year groups.

From awe-inspiring cathedral visits and important transition events for both our confident Year 6 leavers and our eager new Reception starters, to the highly anticipated trip to the Houses of Parliament in London, there’s so much to look forward to.

These opportunities not only bring learning to life but also create lasting memories for our children as the year draws to a close.

Staffing Update:

Miss Warburton, Miss Hassan and Miss Blood have made the difficult decision to leave our school. I would like to thank them for their contributions and I am sure that you will join me in wishing them well for the future.

In the coming weeks we will share the staffing plan for the next academic year.

This weekend:

This weekend is Father's Day on Sunday - we hope that you enjoy celebrating this with your families.

Have a lovely weekend, with some better weather,

Mr Robinson

Our school value for this week is Integrity. "Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I put my hope in you”

Psalms 25:21

The Christian value of Integrity can be seen in many aspects of school life, both inside and outside the classroom.

Here are some examples of where Love can be found:

In School – Children:

A pupil owns up to a mistake they made in a group activity, even though they know it might affect their mark, because they believe in being honest and fair.

A child resists the pressure to join in when others are making fun of someone, choosing instead to be kind and stand up for what’s right.

In School – Staff:

A teacher admits to the class that they gave incorrect information in a lesson and corrects it the next day, modelling honesty and responsibility.

A staff member notices a mistake in planning or assessment data and ensures it is rectified rather than ignoring it.

🌍 In the Community:

A local resident finds a child’s lost backpack and brings it to the school rather than ignoring it, showing honesty and care for others.

Community volunteers working with the school report honestly on how a project or event went, even if there were challenges, because they value transparency and learning from experience.

Our focus in Collective Worship this week has been looking at the Christian Value: Compassion. Our theme this week has been about From Trunks to Tentacles. Our Worships this week have been looking at the Big Picture News Question: What do animals need to be healthy in zoos?

This has struck up lots of discussion in Collective Worship and in the classroom around all animals being a part of God’s creation and deserve to be treated with kindness and respect.

Ask your children the following questions: Why do you think people care about animal welfare? How can rules in places where animals live help protect them? How might the new rules affect zookeepers and visitors? Can you think of other ways people show compassion to animals? #LetYourLightShine💡

# data[].attributes.body
In light of the devastating crash of Air India Flight 171 on June 12, 2025, near Ahmedabad, which claimed the lives of 241 individuals on board, our hearts are heavy with sorrow.

Let us offer a prayer for all those affected:

Loving God,

We grieve the loss of all who perished in the crash of Air India Flight 171. May their souls rest in peace, and may their loved ones find comfort in the midst of sorrow.

We pray for the injured, especially the lone survivor—grant them healing and strength. Be with the families, first responders, and all affected—surround them with courage, compassion, and peace.

In this time of deep loss, unite us in love and support for one another.

Amen.

A lovely evening was had in St Peter’s Church on Tuesday 10th June. We welcomed Bishop Matthew to baptise and confirm a growing number of our children and parishioners.

The children, parishioners and congregation were supported to take away two key messages. Confirmation and Baptism are all about two things: ‘Jesus’ and ‘Transformation’.

It was also lovely to welcome candidates from Westleigh St Paul’s and Leigh CE alongside their staff.

We celebrated afterwards with tea, coffee, biscuits and some lovely Costco cake. Thanks to everyone in involved in making it happen.
