🌸 What a busy week in Roots to Rise! 🎨🍪 It's all been about having fun, making memories and getting to know each other! We've been creative making poppies for Remembrance Day, baking and decorating our own cookies, and even making our very own piñata! 🎉Lots of fun, laughter, creativity and a little bit of mess along the way! We love getting messy in Roots to Rise!

DREAM Award assembly 13.11.26 Today we came together to celebrate some truly fantastic achievements, and what an assembly it was! 🎉A huge well done to all our DREAM Award nominees for demonstrating our school values and being amazing role models. 📚 We celebrated some incredible reading milestones, with three Word Millionaires and one Half Millionaire on Accelerated Reader - what a fantastic achievement! 💚We awarded our current group of children who have been visiting Redlands this term with their Community Kindness Award. We are so proud of their commitment to spread kindness in our local community. 🏆 We presented four Golden Book Awards to recognise some amazing achievements outside of school, as well as a pupil who has gone the extra mile to be a brilliant friend. These moments remind us how special our school community is. 🔥 And finally, a big congratulations to Fire House, who took the win for team points - well done! We are so proud of all our pupils and the wonderful things they achieve, both in and out of school. #DREAM
