Our EcoCouncil met for the first time today. They decided their first job for the year is to create a ‘pond watch’ team. Look out for their blog #TheArboretumWay #youngleaders

We had a great day welcoming @thebodycoach to Arboretum today. Two workouts and a chance to ask our questions were the best way to energise our 640 little people #TheArboretumWay #makingmemories

We had an amazing day meeting @zactivworld! 602 children and 100 staff inspired, hydrated and glimmering #TheArboretumWay #makingmemories

Positive choices for life workshop for our Y5/6 this week. A fantastic and engaging day of workshops from James @openviewed. Continuing our theme of providing learning for now but also for life. Giving pupils clear messages that their actions have consequences. #TheArboretumWay

Another annual event. A very enjoyable morning, taking school council to contribute towards the Well-Dressing celebrations. One of the children commented on how relaxing and calming they had found the morning. #TheArboretumWay

Our first ever Emergency Services Day! wonderfully supported by EMA, Derbyshire Police, Derbyshire Fire and Rescue & St. Johns Ambulance. A day about learning how to keep safe, how to save a life but also lots of laughter and memories. Hopefully an annual event! #TheArboretumWay

We continue to be wonderfully supported by local multinational engineering company Rolls-Royce; this time a STEM day. Y6 pupils had 2 projects, giving them exposure to real life work.  Our pupils already tell us they want to be future employees of Rolls-Royce. #TheArboretumWay
