So great to welcome Year 6 pupils from The Hills, Hazeldene and Edith Cavell today to watch a preview performance of 4SIXTEEN's SIX: Teen Edition. Thank you for coming to the Queendom!

Meet Winnie, our absolute super school dog! Winnie is a 1-year-old Toy Cavapoo who officially joined our school family just before Easter, and she has been bringing endless joy and smiles ever since! When she's on her breaks, Winnie loves nothing more than chasing her favourite ball or running around with a cuddly toy. But her absolute favourite thing in the world? Sitting quietly in a calm space, getting lots of gentle fusses and cuddles from our amazing pupils. All interactions with Winnie are carefully planned and structured around the individual needs of our pupils, whether they need a calming presence, a boost in confidence, or a sensory break. Winnie spends most of her time based in the LINK on the North site, offering a warm and welcoming environment for pupils. She also makes special, structured visits over to the South site so more of our children can benefit from her comforting presence! Winnie has already made such a positive impact on our school climate, and we are so proud to have her as part of the team!

Dress Run The cast and band of SIX: Teen Edition did amazing today in our Sunday dress rehearsal. Show week begins tomorrow with in-school performances to year 6 pupils from surrounding schools. We can't wait to welcome everyone over the next few days! Opening night is Wednesday! If you haven't already got your tickets, what are you waiting for?!
