The Year 6 sailors took the waters at Rockley Park again yesterday. They are now able to independently charter the waters and demonstrated outstanding inter-dependence throughout.
Attendance heroes
We are looking for attendance heroes this year at QPA! Awards will be awarded for outstanding attendance, including the houses with the best attendance.
Thought of the week
This week’s thought is about character. Today’s assembly centred around the QPA Character Award, detailing not only the importance of having a strong character but also the practicality of how the scheme works at school. The children were also introduced to Bethany Hamilton, an inspiring surfer who has continued to excel in the sport despite losing an arm in a shark attack when aged 13.
Traders and Raiders
Year 4 began their ‘Traders and Raiders’ topic today with a Viking visit. There has been an amazing range of outfits on show this morning across the year group, including some pretty intimidating looking teachers!
Awards
Congratulations to all of our end of year award winners. These accolades were achieved by pupils identified as making outstanding progress in academic subjects and sports as well as for demonstrating strength of character throughout school life.
Town Hall
The School Council conducted themselves in a very professional manner whilst visiting Town Hall and the Mayor. The children asked interesting questions and showed a great deal of interest in the role of the Mayor.
PGL
All the pupils who went to PGL last week had a fantastic time and demonstrated positive characteristics throughout: interdependence, trust, courage, compassion and grit, to name but a few.
