We are after some cable reels for our outdoor spaces. Can you help?

We’ve had lots of fun with poet, Ian Bland today! The day started with lots of laughter as Ian performed some of his poetry for us and gave us all parts to join in! The children have then had workshops throughout the day to create some poetry of their own and then performed it in an end of day assembly. So much fun!

Thank you to all our parents/ carers who were able to attend our parent information sessions tonight. We hope you found them useful and informative.

Teachers will share all of the slides used on Seesaw for anyone who wasn’t able to make it.

Over recent days, our children and staff have spent time thinking carefully about what we value most in people and the qualities we want to see reflected across our school community.

Together, we have agreed on three core values that will guide us in everything we do:

🩷 KINDNESS ❤️
We are kind when we show care, think about others and help everyone feel included, valued and happy.

💛 RESPECT 🫡
We are respectful when we listen, use kind words, look after our school and treat everyone and everything with care.

💙 RESILIENCE 💪🏼
We are resilient when we keep going, try our best, learn from our mistakes and don’t give up — even when things are tricky.

These values are at the heart of who we are at Shield Row and will help us to create a school where everyone can flourish.

We are Shield Row.

❤️ We are kind.
🫡 We are respectful.
💪🏼 We are resilient.

We will aim to reflect these values in everything we do — in our learning, our relationships and the way we care for our school and wider community.

A couple of days ago, the DfE published The Back-to-School Reset Guide — practical advice from psychologist Dr Martha Deiros Collado to help parents support children as they return to school.

It covers things like:

🕐 Getting back into school routines
🎒 Building independence through small choices
💬 Talking about worries without making predictions
👋 Making those tricky goodbyes easier
❤️ Helping children manage anxiety about the new school year
🧘 Giving them time to unwind after school

📄 The original DfE guide is here: The Back-to-School Reset Guide (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/6a856b28c9205b515d421e7d/The_back-to-school_reset_guide.pdf)
