Year 6 pupil Charity Fundraising

We are all very proud of James in year 6 who has completed some charity fundraising over the summer for TAARC (Telford African and Afro-Caribbean Resource Centre).  We worked with TAARC in school last year who delivered workshops about racism and black history month for our children and James chose to pogo stick for 30 minutes to raise additional funds for them.  Heather Reid from TAARC, came into school this week to present James with a certificate and found out that James is going to continue doing sponsored events for them, with a sponsored walk.  If you would like to sponsor James, please click on the link below:

This is to raise money for the charity TAARC who go into schools to provide workshops and support children who are facing racism. After having experienced racism, I want to raise awareness and make sure we stop racism full stop in our schools so other children don’t have to experience it. Please donate and help me make a difference.#StopRacismFullstop.”

Summer Holiday Activities

Telford Urban Games – Free Sports Activities

Looking for something different to do this Summer Holiday?

Urban Games is Telford & Wrekin Council’s free programme of sports for kids, aged eight to 16, and wildlife activities for little ones, all taking place in a supervised space. It’s a great chance for children to have fun and learn new skills.

There really is something for everyone and with the Paris Olympics taking place this summer, children can get in on the action by having a go at archery, fencing, football, wrestling and table tennis.

All activities are run by qualified professionals at locations across the borough. There is no need to book a place.

Sessions are free to attend funded by the council’s Safer & Stronger Communities programme with support from the Police and Crime Commissioner and the Government’s Levelling Up Fund.

Online Safety Parental Controls user guide

This guide will help you set up parental controls and adjust privacy settings to provide your
child with a safer online environment. Parental controls can help to protect your child from
seeing something that they shouldn’t — although it is important to emphasise that no system
is effective all of the time, so it is important to engage with your child and talk to them about
their online life regularly.
