Last Tuesday, The Haydon Mayer Nursing Home in Herne Bay offered us an opportunity to create an intergenerational link between a group of our pupils and their residents. This is part of a project they are creating whereby they look for meaningful ways to connect their residents with the local community, helping to reduce loneliness, build confidence, and create valuable learning experiences. Mrs Evett-Collins and Mrs Wilkinson accompanied the group and reflected on what a wonderful experience it was for us all to spend time with the staff and residents. We look forward to organising further events together in the future.

A massive thank you to The Bay Collage Club, who have very kindly donated a £100 The Works voucher to Year 3 to purchase art supplies and continue inspiring creativity! The club hosted an Open Studio event in recognition of World Collage Day, and as part of the event, members were invited to donate postcard collages in response to the theme of 'Gratitude' - raising an impressive £100.   A special thank you to Emily in Tolkien and her sister, who helped to promote the event by holding a lemonade stand and drawing portraits.
