As we approach Advent, we help the children to understand that it is a time for preparing for Christmas, both practically and spiritually. During our RE lessons, drama and assemblies we think about the true message of Christmas.
This year we have decided as a school, to take part in a Reverse Advent Calendar. This is when the pupils and staff each pick a number from 1 – 25 out of a hat. They are then asked to bring either an item of food, a toiletry product or a small toy.
The donations will be collected by the class teachers who will put them in a box in the classroom. These will be displayed on the Advent Mass and the final assembly of the year.
All donations will be collected on Friday 16 December and taken to Kenilworth, Leamington and Warwick Food Banks to help communities in need. Please check out www.warwickdistrict.foodbank.org.uk to find out more.
Donations particularly in need are:
Please do not send in these items if at all possible:
If you have any questions, or indeed any suggestions in ways we could help our local community, please contact me at sjacksonmayne@crackleyhall.co.uk.
Thank you for your support.
Over the Michaelmas half term pupils were challenged to create their own project on Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Mrs Allen asked pupils to investigate the Queen’s extraordinary life and to find out more about her, to choose interesting facts and to present them in a creative way.
We had lots of entries from pupils from Reception up to Junior 6 and they covered lots of aspects of her reign including her love of animals, the countries in the commonwealth as well as her sense of style and the secret codes in her handbags! The super projects have been on display in The Gables – if you get chance, please do take a look. You can see some off them in the gallery.
A huge well done to all the participants in the Junior da Vinci challenge, every pupil who submitted a project has been awarded a creativity strand for a History Junior Da Vinci and some of the most outstanding entries will receive a full Junior Da Vinci award. These will be presented during upcoming assemblies.

To kick start Anti-Bullying Week, the children came to school wearing odd socks on Monday. Odd Socks Day reminds pupils that they are all allowed to be themselves and helped us mark the start of Anti-Bullying Week in a fun and positive way.
Odd Socks Day was just one part of Anti-Bullying Week here at Crackley as the school joined in the national initiative that encourages children to embrace their differences and report bullying behaviour.
