#TeamDuncombe’s Deputy Head Pastoral and Duncombe Bear visited Lower School today.
Together they read a story all about emotions, chatted about how to regulate your emotions and what to do, and who to speak to at school if you have something on your mind.

As part of our bespoke Year 6 Enrichment Programme, #TeamDuncombe Year 6 had the most fantastic day at Lee Valley White Water Centre earlier this week.
We believe happy memories are essential to our mental health and strengthen our sense of identity and purpose.

What a BRILLIANT afternoon celebrating our Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, even the rain couldn’t dampen our spirits!
From a glorious street party to royal races, we really have ended the week in style.

Reflection #2
The education profession has rallied through a two year pandemic!
But disruption has a cost.
Covering staff absence has a cost.
Long term crisis management has a cost.
The fatigue in schools is palpable.
We must care for our schools as they care for our children.
Thank you for all your donations for Debs from @ManicCeramics1 local appeal for humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
All the items have been collected and will start the long journey tomorrow.
Thank you ❤️
