February 2023 - Safer Internet Day
Our Future Leaders have created 2 videos to support this year's Safer Internet Day and the theme:
"Want to talk about it? Making space for conversations about life online."
The first video is an 'Internet Interview' with Fulbridge children from Reception to Year 6.
The second video is a story written and illustrated by one of our Year 6 Future Leaders and it is about a girl called Izzy who struggled to talk about a problem she had online. This video also explains about sharing any problems/issues that children may have and how "A problem shared is a problem halved."
We hope you enjoy watching the videos and they help you to talk to your children and family at home about being online.
On behalf of the Future Leaders, thank you.

October 2022 - 'Thank You' box
The first idea that our Future Leaders are putting into place this year is a Staff Thank You box. We have created this box for staff to send an anonymous thank you to someone who has helped them. They can write a message to a member of staff who has done something that they appreciated and it will be delivered to them by our Future Leaders.
There will be one Thank You box in The Haven staffroom and another in FAH Staffroom.

There is a bench at the edge of the main playground and one on the Fulbridge Academy High play area.
We have already noticed lots of people using the benches already, even a few of the adults!"
