So far we have taken part in the school anti bullying strategy including attending an INSET day with staff from Longwell Green and Bath Spa University. We also attended a Primary School Council Forum at Queen’s Crescent Primary in Chippenham with 7 other schools. It was part of the Primary Review and we discussed our views on learning styles and what we thought the school of the future might look like. Read about what we discussed in Chippenham.

We are currently working to help our school achieve the Healthy Schools Award. So far we have helped by encouraging children to walk to school and to eat healthier snacks at break time. We have also been involved in making our playtimes more fun more active and more safe.
