SCHOOL NEWS & Key Dates

BIG LITTLE THEATRE

Year 3 and Year 4 enjoyed a fantastic visit from Big Little Theatre, who delivered a series of engaging workshops designed to build confidence, encourage teamwork and develop performance skills. The children enthusiastically took part in a range of drama activities, growing in confidence as they explored different characters and ideas.

The workshops were followed by a wonderful performance of “Valoria” to the whole school, a heartwarming play with an important message about celebrating who we are, accepting one another's differences, and showing kindness, support and friendship. The children thoroughly enjoyed the experience and took away some valuable lessons that will stay with them long after the final curtain.

_{DROWNING PREVENTION WEEK}

This June, we are supporting Drowning Prevention Week, an annual campaign led by the Royal Life Saving Society UK (RLSS UK) to educate children and young people about water safety and lifesaving skills.

As the summer holidays approach and more families spend time outdoors near rivers, lakes, beaches, swimming pools and other open water environments, understanding how to stay safe around water becomes increasingly important. Drowning Prevention Week aims to equip children and young adults aged 5 to 17 with the knowledge and confidence they need to enjoy water safely and recognise potential dangers.

Learning simple water safety messages can save lives. By raising awareness and encouraging conversations about safe behaviour around water, we can help reduce the risk of accidents and ensure everyone can enjoy water-based activities safely this summer.

Useful Resources

To help families, carers and young people learn more about water safety, we've gathered a selection of useful resources below. These links provide practical advice, educational materials and guidance on how to stay safe in and around water throughout the summer months.
