Phonics and Writing Success We’re incredibly proud to share that 100% of our Year 1 pupils passed the national phonics screening check! This reflects the strength of our Floppy’s Phonics programme. Our writing has flourished thanks to The Write Stuff. Children are more confident and creative, producing impressive work across many genres— and they genuinely love writing! Wellbeing Champions Our Wellbeing Champions promoted mental health using the Somerset Four Pillars: Belonging, Lifestyle, Learning, and Emotional Health. As part of Children’s Mental Health Week, they introduced Regulation Stations to each classroom and created videos showing how to use them. With support from Zones of Regulation and Gem Powers, children have become more reflective and emotionally aware. Chaplaincy: Faith in Action Our Chaplaincy Team has led the school through the Jubilee Year of Hope, guiding the creation of our beautiful Door of Hope, full of children’s dreams for the future. They also planned our St Benedict’s Day Pilgrimage to St Benedict’s Church and Downside Abbey, deepening our spiritual journey. As part of Lent, they led the Big Lent Walk, helping the whole school walk a combined 363 miles and raise £150 for CAFOD—a wonderful act of service. They’ve also led child-led worship, encouraging every child to take part in prayer and reflection.
