DEAR: Drop Everything And Read!







On Thursday, our whole school took part in DEAR to celebrate World Kindness Day through the power of reading.
Students and staff in every year group read the same story, chosen to highlight kindness and empathy. It was brilliant to see every classroom, from our newest readers to our oldest, all focusing on the same message at the same time.
The story sparked thoughtful conversations about what kindness looks like in our school community and in the wider world. Thank you to everyone who joined in and helped make this DEAR event such a success.
