Learning to Live Well Together – Odd Socks Day

13th November 2023H Trinity

 Thank you to all the parents and pupils who supported Odd Socks Day today.  Days like this underpin our belief that all our pupils are significant to God and to our school family.  Odd Socks Day marks the beginning of Anti-Bullying Week, the theme of which is ‘Make a Noise about Bullying’.  The theme encourages pupils to talk to a trusted adult, sibling or friend about anything that is troubling them, whether it is happening to them or to another pupil.

At Holy Trinity pupils are encouraged to speak to the following if they are worried about anything they experience or see:

  • Any member of Holy Trinity staff
  • Our pastoral support worker, Ms Toplis. (Ms Toplis holds a drop-in session on a Friday.)
  • Jemima, our children’s pastor at Lighthouse London
  • The House Captains – they will listen and alert an adult
  • A sibling who can tell an adult on their behalf
  • Friends who can tell an adult on their behalf

There is also a yellow concerns box in the school office that children can use if they do not feel they can actually speak to anyone.

 

 

 

 

Learning to Live Well Together – Remembrance

10th November 2023H Trinity

Today we held a 2 minute silence to remember the servicemen and women that have died defending our freedom ahead of Remembrance Sunday.  I am always so moved by how respectfully the pupils observe this occasion, even when it interrupts playtime.  Well done Holy Trinity, I am so very proud of you all.

Odd Socks Day – Monday 13th November

2nd November 2023H Trinity

Odd Socks Day is a fun way to mark the start of national Anti-bullying Week.  (It’s also an excuse to put the collection of single socks that appears after every wash to use!)    It celebrates the fact that we are all different, but equally significant.    Throughout the week pupils will be defining what bullying actually is and who they can reach out to if they experience behaviour they do not like.

Pupils can wear odd socks for free, but it’s £1.00 to come into school in their own head-to-toe outfit.

Thanks from Streets Food Project

2nd November 2023H Trinity

Helen from Streets Food Project came to worship at Lighthouse London yesterday to say thank you to the pupils for their Harvest  Festival Donations.  She shared slides with the pupils showing how her team had made up food parcels for the local community.  Helen’s team includes refugees, who volunteer because they want to support others in need.

Well done everybody for supporting this local charity.

Learning to Live Well Together with Lighthouse London

Thank you to Jemima and Murray from Lighthouse London for running an engaging worship celebrating Black History Month.  The pupils always enjoy the music and songs that they bring with them.

Jemima, has also been very busy visiting Key Stage 1 RE classes this week.  Here she is helping Year 1 pupils to understand the Creation story.

Lighthouse Light Party – the Antidote to Halloween

The Lighthouse will be putting on a Light Party again this year.  Last year, pupils really enjoyed the range of activities on offer, so get your tickets and pop along to the church to join in the fun!

Please note tickets must be purchased from the Lighthouse church, not the school office.

Dear parents/carers,

I received this lovely message from Helen at Streets Food Project regarding your Harvest Festival donations:

“Please pass on our heartfelt thanks to your wonderful children who brought over their harvest festival groceries for us to pass on to our recipients. Our Ukrainian refugee families were touched by your generosity.”
Helen will be coming to worship in November to say thank you to the pupils in person and to explain how their donations have made a difference to families in the area.
Thanks again for generosity.

Parent & Toddler Group

Just a reminder that Jemima, our Children’s Pastor at the church, runs a parent and toddler group every Wednesday at Lighthouse on Finchley Road.  Do pop along if you want to meet other parents with children of a similar age in the area.
