Head of Primary School Message Welcome to the Primary School section of Term 1’s TIV. Thanks for taking the time to read about our exploits this term, created by Ms Alina Radu and our talented team of teachers and pupils.
But whilst it is only right to applaud our wonderful families,
I want to start by saying thanks to our parents for your
IBSB. We are taking our first steps right now, focusing on
involvement in many of the events and challenges you will see in our section. This term, more than at any time in the past, we have relied on our parents to support us from home as we have tried to keep alive the kinds of events we usually enjoy together in school. This term many of these school events were completed within your families and then shared for the community to enjoy and this addition of TIV is full of such events. It is something we should be proud of as it builds our sense of community and trust. I know it is not easy being a parent at this moment and we appreciate you being involved in so many projects beyond their day-to-day learning, whilst juggling work and life. So, I want to say thanks. Thanks for getting your children to lessons on time, thanks for keeping up their morale, thanks for being involved, thanks for supporting us and continuing to build our community, even if we did not actually meet in person this term.
it is important to note that none of this would be possible without the dedication, skill, creativity, and commitment of our Primary School team. The biggest highlight for me this term has been the launch of HPL at our school. It has started a journey that will benefit our pupils enormously as they progress through school at introducing the ideas, philosophy, and skills within the HPL Framework, being sure to provide the children and parents with a common language to set the scene. It will gather pace as the days flick by, and, before we know it, soon be common practice as our children learn the skills and attitudes to become High Performance Learners.
There is much to look forward to next term.
Let’s see what else we can achieve together.
Mr Alan Cornish
