• Eddie the penguin saves the world!

  Wed 10 Jul 2019

  This week, the Seahorse class wowed their teachers, parents and friends with their spectacular performance of, ‘Eddie and the penguins save the world!’ 

   

  ‘Eddie and the penguins save the world’, is a thought-provoking play about world pollution and how we can all do our bit to help save our planet.  The year 2 children are very passionate about this and enjoyed sharing this important message through fabulous songs and wonderful acting (I’m sure many of us will be singing those songs for days to come)! 

   

  Well done Seahorses, we are all so proud of each and everyone of you! You were sensational! 😃

• Mental Health and Wellbeing Parents Meeting

  Thu 23 May 2019

  Mental Health and Wellbeing Parents Meeting

   

  It was lovely to see some parents at this meeting. 

  The meeting was an introduction to TRICKBOX, we are using this programme in school to support the mental health and wellbeing of your chidren. If you were unable to attend the meeting and would like to know more about TRICKBOX then have a look at the power point on the Mental Health and Wellbeing section of this website. You can find it under the key information section. In TRICKBOX time children are taught a series of  'tricks' to help them deal with everyday situations. These tricks are printed on cards and used throughout the school.

  If you would like to purchase a box of TRICKBOX cards to use with your child at home Mrs Anderson will be selling them for £5 in the office.

• Working towards one goal for the greater good🐘🌟

  WOW! What a brilliant week. The children have truly been courageous advocates this week by spreading the word about TUSK. A huge thank you to everyone that has donated to this wonderful cause. This week alone we have raised £179.85! We will continue to raise money throughout the year as we are currently talking to the charity about how it will be spent. Here is a photo of all the children showing that we are all different but together we are amazing!

• Mosaic Cross

  Sat 11 May 2019

  The mosaic cross is really starting to take shape now and is looking beautiful. It has been a real privilege to be part of this art project, one that will remain an important part of the school for many years to come.  Everyone at Catherington has placed a tile on the cross, I know where mine is!  Your child will be able to show you their contribution when it is mounted on the wall at the front of the school. The cross will be in the blue lodge this week, why not go and have a look.
