Dear Parent/Guardians,
To encourage independence, confidence, resilience and self - motivation, our school is once again running the Junior Duke Award Scheme for our Year 3 children following the success of our first cohort last year. This award is aimed at helping children learn and practise a large variety of life skills.
Our Year 3 children will be completing the Bronze level of this award. Each of the levels has a selection of challenges and, in order to complete a level, the children need to finish a pre - determined number of these successfully. These include skills such as First Aid, ICT, Eco awareness, Cookery, Drama, Music and Sport. These challenges are completed in school, at home and in the local area.
On completion of a level, a well-earned certificate and badge will be awarded.
The children will need to commit to attending the sessions every week, and be prepared to do the work that is required at home before the next session.
If your child would like to take part, please complete the Google form by Midnight on Friday 15th September.
There will be a cost of £5 to cover the booklet, badges and certificates.
We only have 14 places available and will let you know during the week beginning 18th September if your child has been given a place.
This award will be led by Miss Float and Mrs Stanley.
Sessions will take place every Friday, starting on Friday 22nd September and will last for approximately 17 weeks. Sessions will run from 3.20 until 4.30
