A message from Leeds Rhinos:
Our annual Wetherby Whaler Boxing Day Challenge against Wakefield Trinity is back again this year; and alongside the match children and families can experience family friendly festive fun as Father Christmas will once again take over game day proceedings before returning to the North Pole. The match day will also feature Santa’s elves and a sing along with Frozen Princesses Anna and Elsa. Plus children can also take part in our half time snowball fight lead by a certain Christmas loathing Grinch!

The link below contains all of the details. All tickets are purchased direct from the Rhinos.

We will use age appropriate resources from https://www.neurodiversityweek.com/ where there are also resources and advice for parents too.

Neurodiversity Celebration Week Neurodiversity Celebration Week aims to bring about worldwide neurodiversity acceptance, equality and inclusion in schools and workplaces.

Our wonderful school council have decided that they would like to raise money for a local charity and democratically voted to support the work of Homeless Street Angels.

Shelley and Becky from the charity came to deliver an assembly to the whole school this morning to share the wonderful work that they do in and around Leeds.
Please take the time to talk to your children about their visit. There is also a lot of information on their website about the humbling work that they do https://homelessstreetangels.co.uk/

In assembly the school council also shared information about a campaign they would like to run over the month of February where they ask you ‘Save the Change’.
They have designed a poster to give you some more information – please see attached.

Please send any money you have collected into school from week beginning 3rd March. School council will then count it up and donate to the Homeless Street Angels

Thank you in advance of your support.

Thank you to Homeless Street Angels who came to our assembly today to share the wonderful work that they do.
