The end of our first full week!

A big hello to our new Nursery and Reception children and parents.  It has been lovely to see you and welcome you to the Kilmorie Community.   

The children and staff have been settling into the new school timetable, and it has been wonderful to see how quickly the children have settled.  My assembly this week was around the theme of resilience. I celebrated the success of the Lionesses in the European Championships and emphasised the resilience they had to show to win the tournament. They had to combat the loss of experienced teammates, racial abuse, having to come back after falling behind, as well as losing the first match and the negativity it attracted.  I also spoke about George Foreman, the boxer, and spoke about his story and the resilience he had to show throughout his life. 

This year I would like to celebrate our work through the use of Instagram.  We aim to highlight the work we do, both in and out of the curriculum using this medium.  Please bear with us as we start (restart) our Instagram work.
