My Story
Our school is proud to be a place where we listen to, consider and where appropriate act upon the views, ideas and suggestions of staff, parents, carers and children. With this in mind, school council have been working hard to support their charity of the year, Cancer Research UK. Families are invited to Brook Acre to interact with children and staff, including loved ones to lunch sessions, charity days and reading sessions. They are encouraged to talk about cancer awareness, the importance of screening and having health concerns checked out. We recently held a Bake Off event to raise funds for Cancer Research UK and following on from this success, we are now holding a Race for Life event on Wednesday 17 May at school to raise vital funds for research. Children and staff will be running, jogging or walking a course around the school grounds. Sponsorship forms are available from the school. We hope to raise £500.00. Please help us to reach this target or even better raise more.
