The Crescent Experience
Today, 18th January 2024 , The School Council , Mrs Higton and Mrs Lockyer have been lucky enough to attend The Crescent Experience. Our children are interested in having a water fountain in school because it is good for our minds and bodies to stay well hydrated. The School Council went to find the source of the Buxton Water. Over the next few weeks we shall be putting together a film and approaching a local company to see if they would work with us to achieve this.
We have sent our film to Buxton Water- Please take a look.
Some of our Year 6 pupils attended the Buxton Students Climate and Environment Conference 2023.

It has long been planned by Mrs Mercer to build upon our existing pupil voice by electing a Head Boy and Head Girl and these children are the second incumbents. This is a prestigious role in school and these children have shown not only the academic effort and learning behaviours but also the personal and social skills which make them such a fine example to other pupils. The Head/deputy head Boy and Girl have so far been involved in assemblies (even leading whole assemblies) and as a example of our pupils when meeting visitors to our school.
