☕📚 PSHRE Curriculum Café 📚☕

It was wonderful to welcome parents and carers to our recent PSHRE Curriculum Café.

The event provided an opportunity to explore our PSHRE curriculum, find out more about the topics pupils learn about, and see how we support them to develop important life skills, wellbeing, relationships and independence.

Thank you to everyone who attended and took the time to engage with discussions. We hope you found the session informative and enjoyable.

Our pupils have been making the most of the outdoors during their PE lessons, developing their physical skills, confidence, and teamwork while enjoying being active in the fresh air.

Outdoor PE provides fantastic opportunities for our pupils to build resilience, improve coordination, and have fun while staying healthy. It’s wonderful to see everyone engaging so enthusiastically and supporting one another.

Well done to all our pupils for their fantastic effort! 👏

This week at The Cavendish School, we have been recognising Mental Health Awareness Week and exploring this year’s theme: Action 💚

Our pupils and staff have been thinking about the small actions that help them feel calm, supported and happy — from spending time outdoors, listening to music and reading, to talking with friends, exercising, drawing and taking mindful moments throughout the day.

By sharing what helps us feel calm, we are encouraging one another to prioritise wellbeing and support positive mental health every day.

We can’t wait to see the amazing pottery creations our pupils will make! 🎨✨

Grandin Class had a fantastic time on their recent trip to Shepreth Wildlife Park! 🐾🌿

Pupils enjoyed exploring the park, meeting a wide variety of animals, and learning all about wildlife and conservation. From fascinating reptiles to playful meerkats and incredible birds, there was so much to discover throughout the day.

The trip provided a wonderful opportunity for hands-on learning, building confidence, and creating lasting memories together. Everyone showed great curiosity, enthusiasm, and excellent behaviour, making it a truly successful visit.

A big thank you to the staff at Shepreth Wildlife Park for such a warm welcome and an unforgettable experience! 🦁🐒🦜
