In a world where technology is used continuously and where children are exposed to the internet on a regular basis in many different forms, it is so important to ensure you keep your children safe when online.  We have attached a webinar produced by Ofsted for parents that gives advice on how to keep your children safe online. Please also remember to book a place on the next Tricky Topics Workshop on Friday 23 March at 1.30pm where the focus will be ‘Online Safety’.

Exciting Visitors Coming to Joydens Wood!

By Reception, Year 1, Year 2 No Comments

We are extremely lucky to have two Olympic athletes visiting our school.

During the morning of Tuesday 20 February, they will meet the children and lead an assembly where they will share their achievements and life experiences. They will talk about how they came to be athletes, what their training regime is like, how it felt to compete and win Olympic medals and what the children can do to follow their own sporting dreams! The rest of the day will involve each class having an exclusive PE lesson taught by the athletes. We are inviting all children to wear sportswear on this special day. This does not have to be the school PE kit.

We hope the children will really enjoy this exciting experience!
