Pupils at our Independent School have been working extremely hard over the last few months, including in Art where they learned about using different types of food to make sculptures, and in PE they took part in finger gym lessons and exercises in the park.
In Geography they practised map reading which they used to go on a walk and find objects that were placed around Peterborough. They then added the date ready for the next explorers to find!
They celebrated Children in Need by decorating and selling biscuits for charity, and watching the England football matches together.
Christmas was a time of fun and joy for all, with plenty of festive activities including Christmas Jumper Day, and trips to the garden centre to look at all the decorations. They hosted their annual dinner and Christmas Fayre where the school was transformed into a Winter Wonderland with plenty of magical decorations and treats for all to enjoy. The pupils had a fantastic time interacting with all the festive games and activities, from decorating cookies, to playing pin the nose on Rudolph! They also managed to raise over £300 for the local homeless community.
The school has also just launched their brand new range of free accredited qualifications provided by West Suffolk College which are open to all parents, carers, and staff to help them with supporting children. Some of the subjects available include:
- Understanding Autism
- Understanding Children and Young People’s Mental Health
- Adverse Childhood experiences
- Understanding Specific Learning Difficulties
We are excited to start rolling these courses out to help people get a better understanding of some of the key issues around young people’s mental health and wellbeing.
