An Exceptional Place to Flourish
Good Morning!
This week is Children’s Mental Health Week (1st-7th February 2021). This year's theme is Express Yourself.
Self-expression is about communicating your individuality. This can be through words, clothing and hairstyle, or through art forms such as writing, drawing, music and dance.
Sometimes our grown-ups help us get ready in the mornings. On Friday I challenge you to get yourself dressed. Choose your own clothes and hair style! Don't forget to tweet pictures to our school twitter!

Today's Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me through all of my days. Teach me not to worry. Remind me to not be anxious. As it says in Philippians ‘Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.’ I am making my requests known to you right now. I need help. I need you. I thank you. Amen
