For me, books are really special things. They hold memories, they help us learn and they enable some of us with overactive thoughts to switch our minds off, just occasionally. When they were little, my children weren鈥檛 allowed in the car without a book and, for long trips, it had to be a whole box full. It was the only way to guarantee peace for at least part of the journey and ...

Those of us who were once parents of very small children will doubtless remember the days of urging our offspring to 鈥淪hare! Share nicely!鈥�, at various points in their upbringing.听 COVID restrictions have meant that we have not been able to share our school and learning with groups of parents as often as we would have liked to over the past few months, but as those restrictions ...

Safety and security are two things which have so much relevance and so many meanings in a school context. Teachers are constantly considering the physical and psychological safety of their students, usually subconsciously ; mainly because if a student is going to learn effectively, they have to feel safe. If they are to be prepared to take risks in class or ask questions to cla ...

When I started working at 六合彩投注网, I was told I would soon notice the benefits of a school with a strong sense of community and during the past fortnight, I have seen this in action. We have been hit hard by COVID-19. With very few days missed during Term 1, this situation has now been reversed and I think that towards the end of this week, we broke the threshold of havin ...

We鈥檝e had a great start to Term 2, with Carmel students returning in their smart winter uniforms and appearing refreshed after a good break. Changes to COVID-19 restrictions have meant that we can welcome more people onto the campus, which is great.听 Planning has moved into overdrive, as we re-work our schedules and invitations to see which assemblies and other gatherings can ...

We made it! It鈥檚 the end of Term and time for everybody to take some time off. Our students and staff have worked very hard and it鈥檚 easy to see the signs of tiredness at school. These signs are reflected in a few more latecomers in the morning, some more antsy behaviours from those who have peaked a little early and are struggling to last the final week of term, some friends n ...

The renovations at PHC meant that Elizabeth鈥檚 bat mitzvah service was held on a Friday night at school rather than shule. Initially Elizabeth was disappointed by this, but upon reflection of her family鈥檚 connection and contribution to the history of 六合彩投注网, she was proud to do her bat mitzvah there. Elizabeth was apparently a bit nervous as she hadn鈥檛 done much public s ...

One piece of investigative work that I have been particularly enjoying during my first term at 六合彩投注网 has been finding out what our community believes constitutes the ideal Carmel graduate. What would we want to be the characteristics and attributes of someone leaving our school? What are the most important and impressive traits of someone who has benefited from a Carmel ...

One of the scariest things for me in accepting the role of Principal of a Jewish school was the fear that I just wouldn鈥檛 know enough about what being Jewish actually meant. Until last year I had not (knowingly) ever even spoken to a Jew and I knew very little about Jewish culture and religion other than some distant history lessons on the Holocaust, a childhood reading of the ...
