We had our first RAINBOW DAY of the year last Friday.

The children spent the morning in their RAINBOW teams and the theme this half term was 'Getting to Know You'.

The children brought board games into school and spent the morning in their teams, playing together and getting to know each other.

For those of you who are unaware of what Rainbow Days are...

Every child in our school is given a colour from the Rainbow. On Rainbow Days, the children get together in these colours. In each colour, there are children from each year group. We do this to encourage a sense of team and belonging across school. The younger children get to know the older children and the older children care for the younger children.

I honestly think that our Rainbow Teams is a huge strength of the school. The relationships and confidence that the children develop are exceptional and it creates such a sense of feeling valued for the children.

As always, our Year 6 Rainbow Leaders were role models for our other pupils.
