Supporting parents and carers with e-Safety

1st December 2022J Ranson

e-Safety is an important part of keeping children safe in the modern world, and teaching children how to be safe online is a responsibility that we all share. Last week we launched our new e-Safety webpage, which includes weekly tips, safety guidance and information on popular apps, games and websites that are popular with children.

We would like to invite all KS3 parents/carers to our Keeping Children Safe Online information evening on Wednesday 14 December 2022, starting at 5.30pm with Miss Laing. The evening will include a presentation providing advice and guidance to parents and carers on how to support their child’s use of apps, games and websites, followed by an opportunity to ask any questions to Miss Laing and the Senior Leadership Team.

If you have any further questions about the information evening, please contact Miss Laing at [email protected].

Freddie Runs for Funds!

17th October 2022J Ranson

Year 7 student Freddie ran the Junior Great North Run earlier this month and raised a fantastic £410 for the RNLI.

On his Just Giving page he wrote the following:

My name is Freddie Fawcett and I am 11 years old. I am running the Junior Great North Run and hope to raise some money for this fantastic charity. Having just moved to the coast and love being in and on the water, know how important the RNLI work to keep people safe. I would be very grateful for any donations no matter how small. Every penny counts. Thank you very much. Freddie.

Here at Marden we are very proud of Freddie’s achievements. Well done!

Year 7 Photographs – Full School Uniform

6th October 2022J Ranson

On Friday 7 October 2022, Year 7 students will have their school photographs taken.

Students should arrive at school in full uniform for the photographs.

If students are timetabled to have PE on Friday, their PE lesson will have been adapted so they will not need to bring their PE kit into school.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at [email protected].
