  This week is NSPCC Speak Out Stay Safe Week at Peterhouse.

  Speak out Stay safe is a safeguarding programme for children aged 5- to 11-years-old. The programme helps children to understand that they always have a right to feel safe, and that they can speak to a safe adult or Childline if they ever need help or support.

• Anti-Bullying Week

  Tue 14 Nov 2023

  This week is Anti-Bullying Week; an annual event that's coordinated in England, Wales and Northern Ireland by the Anti-Bullying Alliance.

  This year the theme is 'Make A Noise About Bullying'

  Teachers and children wanted a theme that empowered them to do something positive to counter the harm and hurt that bullying causes.

  So this year, whether you're at home, work or in school, let's celebrate our uniqueness and take a stand against bullying.

• Brooms Cross Fishery

  Fri 03 Nov 2023

  Some of the students have been going fishing at Brooms Cross Fishery

  The therapeutic nature of fishing holds real benefit. It helps the students get outside, enjoy the space and take on challenges in ways that are meaningful for them. Catching a fish brings a huge sense of achievement and accomplishment, and it makes the anticipation and the wait all worthwhile. Not catching a fish helps promote patience, resilience and understanding.

  The students look forward to their sessions and improving their skills, many see it as a highlight of the day or week.
