Science Week
We have held our very own science week this week and it has been amazing to see just how enthusiastic the children have been. The week kicked off in style with a visit from Sublime Science on Monday and concluded with a science assembly today. Each class learnt about a scientist and presented this to the rest of the school. See below to see what we have been up to!

Deaf Awareness Week
Deaf Awareness Week is an annual event used to celebrate the Deaf Community. This year, Deaf Awareness Week 2023 will take place from the 1st to the 7th May.
What are the aims of Deaf Awareness Week?
Deaf Awareness Week aims to bring to light the barriers that people who are Deaf and those with hearing loss face in society. By educating ourselves on learning key communication tips and recognising the importance of the Deaf Community, together we can take steps to be more inclusive and celebrate diversity.
By learning directly from people’s experiences in the Deaf Community, we show that we care, empathise with, and respect people who are Deaf as valued members of society. Rather than seeing deafness as something that needs to be ‘fixed’, we should make appropriate adaptations to accommodate people who are Deaf and those with hearing loss - many people view deafness as part of their identity, not a disability. This event is also a great way to spark conversations about being inclusive in the workplace.
How to celebrate Deaf Awareness Week
There are lots of ways that both children and adults can celebrate Deaf Awareness Week this year. Here are some top ideas to get you started:
• Learn directly from the Deaf Community about their lived experiences.
• Take up BSL (British Sign Language).
• Fundraise for charities that support people who are Deaf and those with hearing loss.
• Learn tips and advice on how to communicate with others.
• If you work in a school, host an assembly about this awareness day.
• Join campaigns and sign petitions to help promote equality.
