We are super proud of Myla for being awarded the Sparkle Award this week.

This award is given yearly to a child that stands out in our school, who embodies the values of kindness, support, and community spirit. From lending a helping hand to offering words of encouragement, Sparkle Award recipients demonstrate compassion and selflessness in their actions.

The foundation of the award is rooted in a profound need to nurture kindness and social responsibility in our children. Founded by Margaret and Barry Mizen in the wake of the tragic loss of their son Jimmy, the Sparkle Award serves as a tribute to Jimmy’s legacy, inspiring young people to make positive contributions and spread kindness wherever they go.

Well done, Myla!

Over the half term, Zander was involved in the Herne Bay basketball tournament. His team, under 12s Folkestone Saints, won the tournament for their age group and received a medal and a trophy. Congratulations!

Our Year 6 young carers had a great day at the Three Hills this week. They took part in lots of activities, including wheelchair basketball, blindfold bench ball and making smoothies on the smoothie bike!

They met other Year 6 children from different primary schools that will be going to their secondary school, as well as meeting members of staff from their new schools.

A special mention to Sienna for winning the golden banana!
