Across the Trust Roxton secured 1st place (Oak) and 3rd place (Redwood) well done everyone absolute super stars!
Dear Roxton staff,
I just wanted to say how lovely it was to see you today, and how much I enjoyed talking to your pupils! You have clearly worked SO hard on the curriculum for them, and their conversations were, as a consequence, an utter delight. They said wonderful things like:
I love…… (and then every subject that a school could teach! Which made it clear that you really do bring all subjects alive for them)
‘The work here is fun and challenging – and I love that’
‘I like that fact that the things we learn are not too hard and not too easy – so we make progress’
‘We are one big team in Roxton, so we all help each other to learn and look after each other’
‘The book was about being kind. We like to be kind.’
I was ambushed by books and conversations about Invaders, Movers and Shakers, art, maths, reading, English, science, RE, letters, sounds!!!
Thank you so much for all of the work and love you put into the school for the benefit of Roxton pupils.
Kind regards,
Carole Bennett MEd MCCT

We did World Book Day a little bit differently this year! The children were invited to make their favourite book character out of a fruit or vegetable. All of them were amazing - look at the pictures below!
The teachers moved around each class this morning and read one of their favourite children's book to the children. The teachers really enjoyed being with all the children and we think the children enjoyed having a different teachers for some of the day.
Yesterday at Roxton we had our Trust monitoring visit, we would like to share with you all the lovely email sent to staff from the CEO of the trust Carole Bennett. We are super proud of the children and I am super proud of the staff!
Dear Roxton colleagues
I have just had my usual catch up with Gemma (Director of Education). During our time together she highlighted the visit to your school today. It was so good to hear about the calm, considered and purposeful learning at the school, and how articulate your children are becoming about their learning and progress. I just wanted to thank you for all of the work and effort going on at the school right now, it clearly is having an impact.
Have a wonderful half term – well done and keep going! I shall look forward to seeing you all after the break.
Kind regards,
Carole Bennett
Trust Leader
