• United Against Bullying

  Mon 16 Nov 2020

  This week the children across the school have been reflecting on what a difference their actions can make to those around them. At Northern we feel very strongly that every individual deserves to be able to wear a smile every day. This also led in to work on how not only can we make a stand against bullying but we also need to make sure we are taking care of ourselves. Circle time activities were planned by class teachers to help the children focus on the importance of mental wellbeing and how important it is to talk and share.

  To help gain an understanding of how some people feel on a daily basis all the staff and children came to school wearing odd socks.

  Today children across the school took part in activities to help them understand why the festival of Diwali is so important for many people across the world. Here are some of the highlights from Key Stage 1...

  

• Remembrance Day

  Wed 11 Nov 2020

  It seemed very strange this year not to be walking with our Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6 children up to the Deerplay War Memorial. This is such an important part of our Remembrance Day acts of remembrance that we chose instead to brave the elements on the school field.

  Our Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6 children laid a wreath at one of the trees on the school field after taking time to reflect during their walk. We were lucky enough to have a recording of the last post played by one of Northern's former pupils which added to our act of remembrance.

  Our younger children created poppies which were displayed on the school railings.

   

  

• Sports After School Clubs

  Wed 11 Nov 2020 Mrs Ewens

  From Thursday 11th November until the end of term, you will be able to log on to the Youth Sports Trust after school club sports adventures.  These look like a fantastic way to keep fit whilst we are unable to access other sports events and centres.
