• Y5/6 Workshops

  Fri 07 Oct 2022 Mrs Frecklington

  This week, as part of the curriculum, the children have taken part in two workshops: Being Safe Online and Substance Awareness. They learned about how to stay safe when using the internet, using social media in the future (13+) and what is appropriate to share with others. When learning about substance misuse, the children discussed legal and illegal substances such as caffeine, alcohol and Nitrous Oxide (commonly known as laughing gas). They had some very mature conversations making all of the adults very proud.

• Black History Month 2022

  Sun 02 Oct 2022

  At CGCPS we are proud to have a diverse curriculum and we have worked hard to embed Black History and representation across the school, throughout the year. However,  we also appreciate the significance of  marking and celebrating this month (October) by sharing some of our plans for this year’s Black History Month!

  We will be learning about the experience of significant Black British figures and the impact they have on our society in our weekly assemblies and in class.

  Each class will focus on a key individual, and map their background, achievements and impact on the UK.

  By the end, the children would have developed their knowledge around the abundance of differences that make up our rich culture in England. They’ll also be able to detail exactly where those influences originated.

  If you would also like to support your child further I have attached some links below.
