Welcome to the BrookSpring Term 2023  It has been lovely to welcome our children back after the half term break and to see the daffodils starting to sprout and our Eco Schools Green Flag billowing in the breeze.
We are delighted to announce that today we have been awarded the PE Quality Mark . Congratulations to all staff and pupils for showcasing our Physical Education and Physical Development work.
Thank you to everyone who supported our non uniform day in aid of the Turkish and Syrian earthquake appeal. Along with the Willow School and the children’s Centre we raised the marvellous total of £1763.59 which has been sent to the Red Cross. We are aware of how many members of our school and local community are affected by this dreadful disaster and will continue to support the appeal in any way that we can.
Best wishes Maureen and the Brook Staff About UsOur school is part of the Broadwaters Inclusive Learning Community which means that we share our values, vision, ethos and aspirations with the Willow Primary School and the Broadwaters Children’s Centre. What’s more, we share a groundbreaking state of the art building. Our inclusive approach means that pupils live together in an aspirational learning environment where every need is met. Our pupils are aged 4 – 11 and have a range of needs such as Autism, severe and complex learning difficulties as well as associated physical, medical, and emotional needs. This means that they need a safe, specialist environment to help them learn and reach their potential. Laughter, excitement and enthusiasm are evident in all aspects of our school life. Our emphasis on communication, creativity, physical and personal development means that our pupils develop into self-confident learners who are rightly proud of themselves and their achievements. Our highly trained staff, working closely with specialist practitioners, are constantly striving to give our pupils the very best experience at school. We aim to enable our pupils to move confidently onto the next stage of their lives.
GOOD NEWS !!! Congratulations to our staff and pupils on receiving the European Quality Mark for our Oceans SOS project. This is a prestigious award and we have been chosen from hundreds of nominations across Europe. Oceans SOS Project | The Brook Senior Leadership Team |

And lastly:
In December we received a wonderful personal letter from King Charles thanking us for the commemorative booklet that we sent to the Royal Family on the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II – we were not expecting any acknowledgement so receiving the letter this morning was a great surprise. We have included it here for you to read. |
