Military Kids Club
Good Afternoon,
Military Kids Club will be taking place in 4N (in the Victorian Block) from 3:15pm tomorrow (6th October). It is open to all children whose parents/carers are currently serving in the Armed Forces or who are Service Veterans.
The aim of the club is to provide wellbeing support and nurture, along with completing fun activities as a group of children who have something in common. Some of the activities we have done previously include, learning the phonetic alphabet, visiting Beech’s Base, Remembrance Day/Armed Forces Day activities and playing games!
I hope to see you tomorrow 🙂

Reading Newsletter
Please find here the new Reading Newsletter.
We send out a new edition of our Reading Newsletter every half term.
We encourage you to share it with the children at home as part of our commitment to instilling in the children a love of reading. Talking about books, sharing book recommendations and reviews is all part of the fun dialogue to be had around reading.
If children wish to share their own book reviews and recommendations then I would love to receive them and can include them in future editions of the Newsletter.
Thank you,
Mr Rotherham
