Areté Learning Trust

Supporting sustainability, community engagement and positive action for the environment is something we are passionate about across our Trust.

It was fantastic to see this clothes swap hosted at one of our schools, helping to give pre-loved clothing a new home while bringing the community together. ♻️

This weekend the school hosted a clothes swap, organised by Stokesley Clothes Swap. It was great to be able to host this event and to do our bit for sustainable fashion! The next clothes swap will be on 3rd October from 2-4pm and we'd love to see you there!

A lovely example of learning beyond the classroom for our Helmsley Community Primary School Oak and Acorn classes. 🚒

Understanding the vital role of emergency services helps pupils connect with their community in meaningful and memorable ways.

Oak and Acorn class had a super fun afternoon on Thursday when the fire engine came to visit. They have been learning about the special people in our community who help us like the emergency services. The children were able to sit in the fire engine. Explore some of the resources and spray the hose.

Congratulations, Theo! 👏⚽

🏆⚽ Theo Scores Big with Volunteer of the Year Award! ⚽🏆

We are delighted to celebrate an incredible achievement by our very own Theo, who last week scooped the prestigious New Volunteer of the Year Award from the East Riding County Football Association!

Theo was nominated by his club, Heslerton FC, in recognition of his outstanding dedication, hard work and commitment to supporting the club. Whether he's directing cars as a car park attendant, cutting the grass, marking out pitches, helping at events, or even taking to the field to play, Theo is always ready to lend a hand.

This special award recognises the invaluable contributions of volunteers in grassroots sport, and Theo is a shining example of the positive impact that young people can have within their community. His enthusiasm, reliability and willingness to go above and beyond truly make him the ultimate club man.

Congratulations, Theo! We are incredibly proud of you and this well-deserved recognition. 🌟👏⚽
