Defence Mentor
Welcome back for Term 4
Our Defence Club held every lunchtime this Term will be open to all students to attend on both days. Previously we held F - 4 on Thursdays and 5-11 on Fridays.
It is great to see our secondary students helping our younger students with a game of chess or craft activities.
Term 4 - Now that our hot chocolate's for Term 2 & 3 have finished, we will arrange for some icy pole treats at specific lunchtime defence club as the weather warms up.
We have been busy making poppy wreaths for all classes in the lead up to Rememberance Day while talking about the meaning and importance of this day. We will hold a whole college Liturgy for Rememberance Day on Monday 11th November. We would love for families to join us. More details to follow.
