Junior Travel Ambassadors

Our Junior Travel Ambassadors carried out a survey at the school gate on Thursday morning to monitor how many cars were idling and how many had their engines switched off. The children confidently recorded their findings and spoke politely to parents about the importance of turning off engines while waiting. We were delighted to see that many drivers are already helping to reduce air pollution by not idling.

International Week

What a wonderful way to round off this half term with such an enriching and memorable week for the children. Every class has learnt new information about languages, cultures, landmarks and history from all over the world. The week began with the children arriving at The Rowans harbour to receive their boarding pass for their virtual journey to their respective country. Our thanks to the many parents involved in bringing their own home countries and cultures to life for our children at Wednesday’s International Fair!
