Yavneh College

📚Huge congratulations to our Student Librarian, Beth! She received a special shout-out in the acknowledgments of Alex Fenton’s new book, Delirium ( Five Finalists. One App. No Rules). Alex thanked Beth for providing her invaluable teenage perspective during the writing process.

Governors, family members, SLT, staff and Year 7 pupils came together today for a special Thank a Teacher Day assembly celebrating the impact teachers have within our school community. 💙

The assembly included heartfelt messages from pupils thanking their teachers and a beautiful piano performance by Rayah in Year 7.

We were also proud to present our Yavneh Hero Awards to two members of staff who embody kindness, positivity, humility and hard work in everything they do.

Congratulations to Mrs Shah and Miss Tappenden, truly deserving recipients! 👏

Our Thank a Teacher Day celebrations continued today with a special lunch in recognition of the incredible hard work, care and dedication shown by staff throughout the year.

Thank you to all of our amazing staff for everything you do to support and inspire our pupils each and every day. ❤️

A wonderful start to Thank a Teacher Day this morning, with thoughtful cards from pupils waiting in staff pigeon holes 💌🍎

Thank you to all our pupils for your kind words and messages of appreciation. You are the reason we do what we do! 💙

And to all our incredible staff — thank you for your dedication, care, and hard work every single day. The impact you have on our pupils and school community is truly invaluable 🌟

This week at Lunch & Learn…

Hannah Bank from Tribe led one of our Lunch & Learn sessions for Rosh Chodesh Tammuz, exploring the role of the Beit HaMikdash and what it can teach us about our lives today.

📣 Don’t forget to sign up on Teams for next week’s Lunch & Learn so you don’t miss out!

🌞🎢 Pupils who have consistently attended pre-school Shacharit throughout the year enjoyed a well-deserved trip to Thorpe Park.

In glorious sunshine, they spent the day exploring, laughing, and making brilliant memories together. A fantastic reward for their commitment and dedication and a truly special way to celebrate their effort this year.

Well done to all the pupils who took part! 👏✨

A huge well done to Madison and Neo (Year 10), who completed their work experience placement at Monskmead Primary School in March.

Their contribution made such a positive impression that they were invited back to deliver an assembly to the pupils, sharing their experiences and reflecting on what they learned during their placement. This was a fantastic opportunity for them to represent our school, develop their confidence, and inspire younger students.

We are incredibly proud of Madison and Neo for the professionalism and enthusiasm they demonstrated throughout their placement. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Monskmead Primary School for hosting them and providing such a valuable and rewarding work experience opportunity.

Shabbat Shalom to the Yavneh Family ✨
