Calling New Global Avengers

Mr Jones is on the hunt for his new team of Global Avengers!

This is a club set up for children who want to make a difference to the world around them; be the voice for those who can’t speak for themselves.

In recent years, Global Avengers spearheaded a campaign for Toilet Twinning, where we managed to put toilets in 5 of the poorest parts of the world: Shropshire Star Link.

This year, we are hoping to embark on a new global project, where the children will lead the way in being advocates of change and making a difference to those most in need.

This club meet every Thursday lunch time in 6J. If you think it is something you would be interested in, please sign up on Parent Pay or speak to Mr Jones for more information!

Year 6 Assembly – Creation.

Mr Marsh led a Yr 6 assembly linked to Creation this morning. Our unit in B&V is all about creation and the children learned more about being a custodian of God’s creation. We then followed this up with some work back in class in our Spiritual Journeys.

6J Day 1

6J had a wonderful first day. This morning they got to grips with a place value problem solving lesson from nRich.
A brilliantly start to life in 6J!
