Schools Reopen

After a week off schools are set to reopen today for students. At Carr Manor year 7 students should be expecting their finals to start.

For Moortown Primary School, on the Monday return, there will be a learning statement that will look at considering what elements contribute to a good relationship in various settings: school, home, and work.

Reflect on qualities such as trust, respect, communication, and support. Also, examine what characterizes an unhealthy relationship, such as lack of trust, poor communication, or disrespect. Understanding both healthy and unhealthy relationship dynamics can help foster better interactions in all areas of life.
