Plover is proud to receive the ‘Choose Kindness’ award!

On Friday, staff from Plover School attended the ‘Heart of Doncaster’ awards which sees award nominees, businesses, individuals and friends of Club Doncaster Foundation come together for an evening of reflection and celebration, of the incredible people, partners and businesses from across the city.

The Foundation event gives the opportunity to shine a light and award individuals and groups achievements that play an incredible part on the impact of the city of Doncaster and its community.

In recognition of ‘Plover Pantry’ and acts of service such as litter picking, Plover was awarded the ‘Choose Kindness School’ award and we couldn’t be more proud!  It was an honour to be able to share our story of our ongoing contributions to our local community and the environment.

Photo Galleries are now Live!

We are pleased to inform you that the photographs taken one Thursday are now online and ready for you to view.  If you have not already done so please check your email for a link to your child’s gallery from pics4schools.com containing several images for you to choose from. You have until October 27th to order your photos for free delivery back to school (select the “collect” option at checkout).  All orders are placed online and special offers are displayed at the top of the screen.  For those of you with more than one child you can order the multi image packs when the photos for different children are on different security codes by using the button at the top called ‘add security code’, this allows you to add the security codes of your other galleries so that all images are displayed together. You can then choose any of your images for both the multi image print packs and multi image digital options. This allows families with multiple children to buy one pack with images from different galleries and therefore offers great value for money.  If you do not wish to have your photos in mounts there are also options to buy just prints so that you don’t pay for something that you don’t want.  If you have any queries please feel free to email our photographer Vicki at [email protected].  Thank you.

No Room for Racism

Today we wore red. To educate ourselves and the community to say no to racism! We are all humans, we may have different colour skin, come from different cultures, speak different languages… but we all have a heart! We all can and should spread kindness to everyone, as we are all humans! #LovePlover

2L Show Racism the Red Card.

This week, the children have continued looking at the legacy of Rosa Parks actions. They have considered how we can show compassion and respect within our communities. In our crew sessions we have looked at racism as part of the work on ‘Show Racism the Red Card’.

2L Attendance

Today, the children with Awesome, Great or Good attendance have received their postcards. 12 children achieved 100% this half term.

Well done guys!
