Trustwide Conference: Mental Wealth

On the 8th January 2018 the Trust held a conference for 550 Trust staff on the University Bishop Otter Campus. The focus of the day was mental wealth.

The conference was organised following requests from Trust headteachers to enable staff to visit the University campus and to meet each other as well as providing a day focused on wellbeing. Feedback from the conference indicates that many were reflecting on ways to improve their own personal wellbeing as well as taking back ideas for working with children in your care.

Arundel Court remember with a sea of poppies

Pupils at Arundel Court Primary Nursery and Academy have united to create 550 remembrance poppies out of recyclable materials. Explaining the drive, deputy headteacher Rob Jones, said: ‘As part of our curriculum we dedicate a week each term to a particular topic. This term we decided to focus on respect and British values using remembrance as our hook. ‘We wanted all the children to understand the true meaning of Remembrance Day and we came up with the idea of making poppies. The results are fantastic.
