No Outsiders - Everybody Welcome
Mon 13 Feb 2023We were so privileged to welcome Andrew Moffat MBE into school to deliver workshops to all the children. Previously a Primary school teacher at Parkfield School in Birmingham, he is now the author of the book "No Outsiders, Everybody Welcome". It was fantastic to witness his innovative approach to inclusive education, promoting community cohesion to prepare young people and adults for life as global citizens.
Andrew said "No Outsiders enables us to teach about equality and diversity within a framework. The framework is that every child knows that they belong, and that’s the bottom line. You want every child to know that they belong in school. I want children to be proud of who they are. And I think all parents want that for their children. It’s an anti-bullying resource. No parent wants their child to be bullied."

Skipping Festival and Barter Books
Thu 09 Feb 2023Year 3 and 4 enjoyed a trip to Alnwick this week to take part in a local skipping festival alongside other local schools. They were taught skipping techniques and tricks. They then enjoyed a trip to Barter Books after lunch and were able to choose a title to bring home from the wonderful range of children's books they offer using our school account. Donations made to our account are vital for allowing us to continue visiting Barter Books and contributing to the children's love for reading.
