What Parents Need to Know About Emojis
Emojis aren’t just digital decoration — they’re often used as a coded language that young people use to express identity, humour and emotion. Without context, they can easily be misunderstood by adults, leading to confusion or missed signals. Some emojis may even mask risky behaviours or emotional struggles.
This guide helps decode this ever-evolving language, empowering parents and educators to have more open, informed conversations with the children in their care. It also highlights the meaning of some common emojis and offers practical tips for staying clued-in without snooping or suspicion.
Sports Update: Rounders
Our Rounders Team this week entered the Corbet Primary Rounders Tournament. There were two groups of five teams, all from other local primary schools. Our team placed second in Group A, and third overall! Our team tied two matches and won four; they remained unbeaten throughout and only missed out on winning the whole tournament by a point. These events are not only competitive and enjoyable, but also give the children chance to meet teachers and pupils at The Corbet, and also they introduce our Year 6 pupils to their potential new classmates for September. There are a couple more sports events in summer term, including Area Sports and Sports Day.
SIAMS Inspection May 2025
We are thrilled to share the outcomes of our recent SIAMS inspection, a process that evaluates how our Christian vision enriches the lives of pupils and adults within our school community. The findings reflect the dedication, values, and nurturing environment we strive to uphold every day. We are overjoyed with the results and look forward to celebrating them with you, as they affirm the strength of our ethos and the positive impact it has on all those in our school family. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the children, staff, parents, carers, governors, our local community, and our church community for their incredible support—not only on the day of our SIAMS inspection but throughout our journey. Your encouragement, dedication, and shared commitment have been invaluable, and we are truly grateful for the role each of you has played in shaping our school’s vision and values.

VE Day Celebrations!
Thank you for joining us for the 80th Anniversary of VE Day celebrations on Thursday! It was lovely to see so many of you at school enjoying a picnic with the children and staff. We would like to say a huge thanks to Ro and Rachel for preparing an amazing picnic too (they made over 170 packed lunches, made plenty of cakes and scones before serving everyone all lunch time!)
