Year 6 Assessments (SATs): Monday 13^th May – Thursday 16^th May

 

A reminder that children in Year 6 (all the Eagles and some of the Falcons) are taking their SATs assessments this week. To do their best, children need to be well-rested and get plenty of sleep each night. They also need to eat a good breakfast to help their concentration.

 

We are providing free breakfasts for all Year 6 children, Tuesday – Thursday this week from 8.00am – 8.20am. All Year 6 children are welcome to come along and eat breakfast with their friends.

Mental Health Awareness Week

 

Mental Health Awareness Week 2024 is taking place from 13 to 19 May, on the theme of “Movement: Moving more for our mental health”.

Movement is important for our mental health. But so many of us struggle to move enough. There are many different reasons for this, so the aim for this year’s Mental Health Awareness Week is to help people to find moments for movement in their daily routines.

 

There are ideas and resources for this on the Mental Health Foundation website:
