Dear Parents and Carers,
This week at Witheridge, there has been a real sense of determination, teamwork, and encouragement shining through our school community.
Exmoor Challenge Practice Walk
Our final Exmoor Challenge practice walk took place this week, and what an achievement it was! Every single child showed resilience, positivity, and teamwork throughout the walk. A huge WELL DONE to all of our competitors this year—your effort and spirit have made us incredibly proud.
We had 12 challengers in total, which made the decision to select just 8 children especially difficult. Each of you demonstrated fantastic commitment and should feel very proud of what you’ve accomplished.
A big congratulations to our successful challengers:
Josh, Mason, Lily-Sue, Lenny, Lettie, Alfie, Betsy, and Harry.
We wish you the very best of luck for the challenge this Saturday. Mr Manning and I will be there cheering you on along the route—remember to encourage one another every step of the way!
Clubs Are Back!
Clubs started again this week, bringing even more opportunities for fun, creativity, and teamwork across the school. There are still a few spaces available in all clubs, so if your child would like to join, please sign up via Arbor.
Clubs are a fantastic way for children to build friendships, try something new, and live out our school vision:
“Encourage one another and build each other up.”
Thank you, as always, for your continued support. It’s wonderful to see our pupils growing in confidence, kindness, and resilience every day.
With best wishes,
Miss Ratcliffe Head of School
