News from Pix Brook Academy

The start of term is an amazing time to be in school. I have just taken a moment to look back over my thoughts at this time in the previous two years. On both occasions I was talking about the new building and challenges associated with opening a new school. We now start our

CLAIRE’S CAT SITTING third year; welcomed the school over 180 p has grow upils into n from less Y5. The sc that hool 60 is pupils “alive” to over and full 400 and t of energy his September and enthusias we m. It is also a new year where we are all hoping that the pandemic is starting to recede in terms of its impact. These last two years have been disrupted beyond all imagination and to have navigated this period while staring a new school has on occasion presented some challenges. We have been fortunate at Pix Brook to have had the full support of our community and children who have shown themselves to be resilient and flexible. I must also mention the staff team at the school who have responded to every challenge stoically. This year is exciting! Already we have put together our extra-curricular programme, the range of sports making use of our superb facilities will really enhance the pupil experience. Staff have also offered their time after school to teach public speaking, drama, German, chess, choir, and a range of other opportunities. Being able to attend these clubs is something that pupils have really missed and it is fantastic that they can now be back on. Perhaps the most gratifying element to working in a school is seeing the relationship between the members of the school develop. We now have our first group of secondary age pupils in school. These young people are already very different from the new Y5’s they were when they joined in 2019. We now have a common experience and their ever-increasing maturity makes for the most interesting and surprising conversations. Young people are full of life and thoughts and as we work together it is amazing to see them grow. This is something I know all of us at PBA are looking forward to seeing.
