    BLOG #7 Your children (our pupils) are amazing! As part of our approach to Sports Relief, Mr V began the week by setting all pupils a challenge. Therefore, during the week, pupils have had to complete daily activities such as Burpees, Star Jumps, Knee ups and Mountain Climbers! Plus, all pupils were set the task of running a mile! I am amazed at how much enthusiasm pupils and staff have displayed during the challenges, throughout the week. To top this off, a number of pupils have also raised some incredible amounts of money for Sports Relief. Sums have varied and all pupils who have raised money in this way, will be receiving a special letter form myself. The sums involved vary from £20-£100! Superb efforts from all involved and we are really proud of our pupils.

    BLOG #6

    An exciting week at Larwood, with a big focus on Science and a visit from a company that promotes pupil engagement with Science. A range of experiments took place in assembly, followed by all pupils attending a special work shop.

    Our pupils continue to help with the local community via Jubilee Court old peoples home, litter picks in our local area and in other areas of Stevenage, alongside our own Life Skills course.

     

    We look forward to our non-uniform day on Friday 16th, Secondary School Transition evening for Year 5 parents on the 22nd March, Sports Relief activities and those wonderful end of term trips are not far away!

     

    Please note that the results from our Autism Accreditation review should be available in the next 6 weeks. A huge thank you to all parents who engaged in the process and the comments that were made.
