We are thrilled to announce that we have achieved the next level of the Fair Trade school accreditation. We are now a FairActive school, which demonstrates our commitment to raising awareness among our students about Fair Trade.
Students were invited to wear their Christmas Jumpers on Friday 15th December and it was fantastic to see so many students joining in and raising money for Save the Children Charity. We are delighted to have raised over £800 for the charity.
During December our tutor groups have been filling hampers with Christmas items and then, as a group, have decided who they would like to receive the hamper.

During Tutor Time last week, students took part in activities and discussions as part of Anti Bullying Week.
This year’s theme was ‘Make a Noise about Bullying’, with the main topic being ‘Banter vs. Bullying’ which came about following consultation with teachers and pupils by the Anti-Bullying Alliance which coordinates Anti-Bullying Week every year in the UK. ‘We wanted a theme that empowered them to do something positive to counter the harm and hurt that bullying causes. The nature of the activities will encourage young people to consider what bullying means to us, how banter can turn into something more hurtful, and what we can do to stop bullying. ‘
We are delighted that following an invitation from Friends of Christchurch Gardens to exhibit in Art Box our student's work is now on display.
This morning, the whole of North Leamington School came together outside in the school courtyard for a Remembrance Service.
