Be Tick Aware
Ticks can be active all year round, but they are most active in the months April to July, and sometimes later in the autumn. Activity continues over the winter months but at a significantly reduced level. So, we are reminding people to be ‘tick aware’ as they enjoy the great outdoors at any time of the year.

Today at the Federation, we have been celebrating Love—a value that helps our schools grow into happy, caring, and supportive places for everyone.
Throughout the day, our children have been exploring what love looks like in everyday life:
Love in Ourselves Showing confidence, kindness to our own feelings, and pride in our achievements.
Love in Our School Helping friends, sharing equipment, using kind words, and looking after one another.
Love in Our Community Thinking about how we can show care and respect to the people around us—at home, in our neighbourhoods, and to those who work hard to support us.
Love Around the World Learning how acts of kindness and understanding can make a difference globally, and celebrating the wonderful diversity of people across the planet.
Today has been a reminder that love isn’t just a feeling—it’s something we do through our actions, our words, and the choices we make. We are proud of how our children continue to show love in so many meaningful ways.
Have a lovely half term,
Mrs Hirst

It has been a busy and positive first week back, and the children have shown a wonderful attitude as we begin this half term. Our focus on the value of hope is already shining through—encouraging pupils to look ahead with confidence and believe in what they can achieve.
We also have lots of exciting events planned for the weeks ahead, and we look forward to sharing these experiences with you and the children.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support.
