Community Links
As a school we are part of many communities, reaching out into Tonbridge, Kent and beyond to the wider world. We feel that it is important for all of our children to acknowledge the part that they can play in the lives of others.
LOCAL COMMUNITY LINKS
Barnes Lodge Old Peoples Home
Our children are thrilled to have established links with Barnes Lodge Care Home.
Our pupils enjoy spending time at Barnes Lodge reading and socialising with the residents. We also celebrate other important times in the year with the residents:
- Celebrating Mother's Day with the female residents by taking cards and flowers to them.
We are also planning on holding an Easter Assembly at Barnes Lodge for any residents who wish to join with us for the assembly, where the children will talk about why Easter is an important time of the year for us.
We are also hoping to celebrate the Royal Wedding this year with the residents with a 'red, white and blue' royal street party.
BEING HEALTHY and STAYING SAFE
- Fire Safety: Our local Fire Safety Officer visits every year to talk to the children about how to respond if they find a fire and how to prevent fires. The children are taught how to 'Stop, Drop and Roll.
- Road Safety: Presentations and workshops are held for all children to ensure they understand how to stay safe and to reinforce key messages such as the 'Green Cross Code'.
- School Nurse: Height and weight checks are carried out in Reception and Year 6, in addition children in Reception also have a hearing test.
