t Hello everyone
Plewyahocseouednlrltreeuwnocnrpeatngaiyotironiofnfsfeufgcorhrtcoohoilld We are really proud of all of our children and the efforts they make
to be the best they can be here at BJS. We love to give out
opportunities to lead in lots of ways and we are particularly
proud of our Learning Ambassadors, House Captains, Junior
Leadership Team, Worship Leads and Online Rangers.
The Junior Leadership Team are voted for by their classmates to
represent them at regular meetings which cover all aspects of
school life. They have already had their first meeting to discuss ways to improve
lunchtimes with Miss Lewis and Mr Wilson. They are: William M, Alana F, Harry M,
Stephen A, Katie G, Millie C, Lily V, Sofia L, Mara B, James B, Daisy Mae B, and Madisen L.
The House Captains are voted in by all year groups in each house to support the smooth
running of Chestnut, Sycamore and Oak are Nihal S, Lulu M, Sophia M, Macey F, Eve T,
Oliver B.
The Learning Ambassadors are a group of children chosen by school who take feedback
from the class to the teachers weekly planning meetings each week. They are Summer H,
Zachery C, Amaan A, Annabelle H, Albie R, Lailah C, Ella F, Joe O'B, Zach M, Erin K, Grace H
and Archie M.

provide areas for quiet reflection for our children around the school and school grounds.
Plantagenet Drive, Rugby, CV 22 6LB They have begun working with Mrs Spraget on some exciting ideas. They also support
Email: assemblies and we have already had some lovely prayers created by members of the
team. They are: Eden S, Briony E, Paula B, Elsie M, Rose V, Nate C, PJ S, Jovanna G, Leo B,
[email protected] James B, Dougie B and Freya F.
Last but not least is our team of Online Rangers who are pupil monitors for the
technology that is used within our school and are advocates for good behaviour around
its use. They support teachers wherever possible and help showcase a range of digital
skills. They have also already had their first meeting and are eager to take on their roles.
They are: Verity B, Violet P, Lilly F, Lola D, Albie R, Joules L, Orla G, Solomon C, Joseph G,
Sai N, Valentina C and Thomas H.
Halfway through the year we will have a swap around and give a new set of children the
opportunity to take on these roles.
Thank you to everyone for supporting our non uniform day today
helping us raise money for the Young Minds charity. Here is the
