This week, Years 5 and 6 had a workshop with two lovely members from The Social Justice Network Charity. The charity is based within the Diocese of Canterbury and works within communities to alleviate issues of poverty and vulnerability, especially the homeless, refugees and asylum seekers. The children had a good understanding of the difference between migrants, refugees and asylum seekers. They were then shown a clip of a very familiar face, Paddington Bear, alone and lost

It was raining confetti in Assembly today as we all gathered together for our last PSHE assembly of the academic year. Together we celebrated our individual achievements! A few brave individuals walked our red carpet and shared their success stories with the whole school - We had proud moments such as Leap of Faith from our Residential trip, to being good friends, to wonderful art work. After this, it was time for the teachers to celebrate all of the pupils at St Eanswythe's

We joined hundreds of other schools in a high-energy workout to celebrate Mental Health Awareness Week. We discovered how moving our bodies can boost our mood, build resilience and support our mental wellbeing. Both staff and children enjoyed fifteen minutes of exercises in the hall - what a great end to our school day!

Mrs Semple set us a task of inventing and designing our own toy based product to pitch and sell to our class mates and some guest judges and wow - did we take this task seriously! We thought about names, prices, target age brackets and practised how we would create our business pitch! Those who were brave eno

What would you do with a million pounds? This is something that Year Four was thinking about in our PSHE lesson today. We started the lesson making some very hard choices in the form of a game - do we spend the money on a new car, a house, or give it to charity? Each part of the hall represented something we could splash out on and we had to run to the different options! These choices were hard enough but then things became more challenging. Could we give up the most special

Today in assembly, we celebrated everything British! We explored the values that make living in modern Britain so special, including celebrating our differences and showing respect to one another. Afterwards, we took part in a big quiz all about Britain; we spoke about religions, British Bands, Castles and The King! Did you know that around 100 million cups of tea are enjoyed in the UK every day? It was a wonderful time that left us all feeling proud to be British!

As part of our Healthy Me topic in PSHE this term, today Year 1 have been learning all about how to keep their teeth clean and why this is so important for our overall health and wellbeing. With Mrs Semple, the children explored the role of the dentist and how they help us to look after our teeth. We shared our own experiences of visiting the dentist, helping to build confidence and understanding around these important check-ups. During our class discussion, the children dre
