  • Kindness Value Awards

    Published 20/12/24

    This morning was our termly values awards and of course, at this time of year, it also had a festive twist. Mr Cadge had 'decked our hall!' Therefore, Mr Horsley conducted the awards from underneath a huge "Merry Christmas", inflatable archway. Festive tunes were played as the children danced down the red carpet to receive their awards and hear from the teachers as to why they had been selected for our term's value of... KINDNESS.

    It was also a time to say a big thank you and farewell to Mrs Stawniczy, who is moving on to being a teacher nearby at Hartwell Primary. We may still see her briefly at the start of next term, but we wish her all the very best in her new role and will miss her skills and talents at Woodland View!

    Miss Wagstaff shared a poem on our term's theme of Kindness.

    I can choose to be kind,

    Each and every day.

    I can choose to be kind,

    To everyone, in every way.

     

    When I am kind to others,

    I make the world a little brighter.

    When I am kind to others,

    I make my heart a little lighter.

     

    So plant a seed of kindness,

    And watch the world bloom.

    So plant a seed of kindness,

    And we'll chase away the gloom.

    By Hayley O'Connor

    Here are the photos of this term's Kindness value winners:

  • Courage Values Awards - Oct 2024

    Published 28/10/24

    On Friday, we all shared in our two values awards assemblies. These termly, assemblies help to celebrate each of our six different school values. This term's focus value was COURAGE. Mr Horsley led the proceedings and the dancing! It was great to see how all the children help to support and share in the successes of the two COURAGE value winners from each class.

    Each teacher was invited to say a few words about how they had chosen their winners. In addition, Miss Wagstaff, now famed for her poems at such assemblies, shared one that she had found to match the occasion.

    Courage

    Courage to speak up,

    Courage to stand up.

    Courage to say yes,

    Courage to say no.

     

    Courage to make a change,

    to view something in a new light,

    courage to let go,

    courage to go after.

     

    Courage to start, courage to end.

    Courage to walk away, to sit still,

    courage to grow.

    Courage, also, to stop.

     

    Everything begins with courage.

    By Nicole Warner.

  • Blue Butterfly Competition

    Published 25/10/24

    The Blue Butterfly image is extremely important at Woodland View because it symbolises all of the ways we can stay safe. The children know, if you get that butterfly feeling in your tummy, something may not feel right and you may be in a situation that isn't healthy, happy or safe. 

    This was an optional challenge but, as always, we had an overwhelming number of entrants. 

    Here is a video montage for you to watch and marvel at the creative range of posters we had.

    These posters will help remind our children what to do if they are worried or need help.

    Well done to everyone who took part and thank you for the time and effort that went into making them.
