The Rushmere Park Academy is an Eco School!
We have recently been awarded the Eco School's Green Flag accreditation. This was a 7 stage application which involved showcasing work that our Eco-council have carried out, curriculum learning and uploading evidence of our work on reducing energy, recycling and biodiversity.
We are so proud of our young pupils who have a real sense of responsibility for the world around.

Our community gardening project with our neighbours Carrington House is in full swing!
The children, staff, residents and parents are all enjoying the activities.
The purpose of this group is to increase our ties with the community, to give parents some 1-1 time with their children, to learn some gardening skills and perhaps most importantly to have fun together with the residents and children interacting in a relaxed environment.

We went RED for dyslexia this month to bring awareness to the stigma that so many dyslexia leaners feel!
Red is a familiar colour associated with mistakes, corrections, crossing out an disapproval and so we wore red to help change the narrative!
Our pupils across the day enjoyed lots of different activities, helping them learn more about how they can support fellow friends with dyslexia!
