Newsletter 16th October

Headteacher Message

Mr. Worthington

Last week marked the opening of our reward shop which allows pupils to convert positive behaviour points into currency to purchase prizes which range from pencil cases to headphones and Amazon Fire Tablets. A massive well done to Ikrah H who was rewarded with the biggest prize this week for the most positive points (155 this school year) for more on the reward shop please see main body of the newsletter.

Our theme of the week has been focused around World Mental Health Day and providing pupils with the knowledge and tools to help pupils manage their own mental health. The health and wellbeing of our pupils is the most important thing to us at Dean Trust Ardwick and we have a friendly and helpful Pastoral and Safeguarding team who are here to support our young people with any concerns or issues they may have relating to their mental health.

This week we are holding a Year 7 Welcome Evening for the families of our Class of 2028. This is an opportunity to meet our and to receive the information and guidance for the rest of the year.

There will be two presentations by myself and Miss Martin, Head of Year 7 with an opportunity to ask any questions

Please do take the time to come to this event as I am sure you will find it useful. If you are unable to attend, please contact the year team.

I have also included a letter from Greater Manchester Police in the main body of the newsletter in preparation for the October Half Term holidays. Please remain vigilant and encourage your child to make good choices.
