Today is a lovely reminder to notice the small moments that bring us joy and to spread kindness to those around us.

🥕 has returned! 🥦
Next week our school will be taking part in the Eat Them to Defeat Them campaign. To ensure the activities are inclusive for everyone during Ramadan, we will be running the campaign for one week during the last week of term, 23.3-27.3.26
Throughout the week, children will have the opportunity to taste a different vegetable each day and will be encouraged to munch, crunch and chomp those veggies!
Parents and carers can find top tips, fun activities and prizes at:

🌟 Join the Rights Club! 🌟
As a proud Rights Respecting School, we are excited to launch our new Rights Club at Colindale Primary.
This club will help children learn more about their rights, share their ideas, talk about positive changes, and get creative through posters, videos and fun activities. 💬🎨🎥
It is a great way for children to develop their voice and play an active part in our RRSA work across the school.

📱💬 Year 5 Safer Screens Workshop 💬📱
Year 5 took part in a fantastic Safer Screens workshop led by One Collective Power this week.
The session explored the impact that excessive screen time can have on both mental and physical health, as well as practical advice on how to stay safe and responsible online.
A big thank you to One Collective Power for such an important and empowering workshop!

What an AMAZING animal workshop in Year 6 today!
A huge thank you to for bringing in such incredible animals to enrich our Science learning. As part of their topic on animal classification and adaptation, the children got up close with some truly fascinating creatures!
They met:
🐢 Bulbasaw – a 10-year-old tortoise
🐍 A huge 9-year-old python
🕷️ Charlotte – a 14-year-old tarantula (everyone was very brave… even the teachers!)
🦨 Flower – a 9-year-old skunk
🦉 Gru – a 12-year-old owl
An unforgettable, hands-on experience that really brought their learning to life!

🌙✨ Ramadan Mubarak to all our families who are observing ✨🌙
Wishing you a peaceful and blessed Ramadan. May this special month bring reflection, kindness, togetherness and spiritual growth to you and your loved ones.
We are thinking of all those fasting and celebrating within our school community.
