Highlights of the week
This week has been another fantastic one at Colmore Junior School! It has been a pleasure to see how quickly the children have settled back in. Their books are already have some beautifully presented pieces in them, which is a great sign of their engagement and enthusiasm.
A special highlight this week was the internet safety workshop for Year 6, led by Loudmouth. The session was incredibly engaging, focusing on important topics such as misinformation and fake news. It's crucial that our older pupils are equipped with the skills to navigate the online world safely and responsibly.
Behaviour Questionnaire: Thank You for Your Feedback
Thank you to the parents who have already completed the behaviour questionnaire. Your input is invaluable as we make this one of our focuses for school improvement this year. We have already received 30 responses, which gives us a great starting point. As a reminder, the more responses we receive, the more accurate our data will be.
The children and staff will also be completing their own versions of the survey in the coming weeks. If you haven't had a chance to complete it, please do so by Friday, September 19th.
You can access the survey here:

Our new house and vice captains got set to work today with their weekly housepoint counting role! They had their work cut out as there has clearly been lots of good work and good behaviour being rewarded this week!
