15th November 2024 Dear Parent Carers, Weekly Update: 15/11/24 We hope this update finds you well. On Monday 11th, students and staff joined with Noel Baker Academy for an Act of Remembrance. We gathered together at the front of the school, to reflect and give thanks for the sacrifices made by those in our Armed Forces. Students impressed us with their respect and patience as we took part together. This week’s update includes updates on Children In Need donations, how to take part in holiday activities, free football sessions and a travel survey from Sustrans. We hope you find this information useful. Next week, we are expecting our Ofsted report to be published, and we look forward to sharing this with you all through the update. Children In Need Thank you for supporting our Children In Need fundraising today – students and staff looked fantastic in their Pudsey Ears and students enjoyed taking part in activities together over the day!
