All S2 pupils will be involved in making their subject choices for S3/4 and from 18th January to 28th January.

S2 pupils have met with Mrs Sim to hear about what is involved in this important process:

S2 Parent's night is Tuesday 18th January: please book online at SchoolCloud and get the chance to discuss your child's progress and subject choice with their teacher

The S2 Subject Choice Booklet is also available for you and your child to look through and gather information about what subject they may be interested in.

These decisions will be discussed with your child and their Pupil Support Teacher at their 1 to 1 interview from Monday 24th January and Friday 28th January

This week is anti-bullying week and the theme this year is ‘one kind word’.

Kindness is more important today than it has ever been.

The isolation of the last year has underlined how little acts of consideration can break down barriers and brighten the lives of the people around us. This year, let’s remind ourselves of the power of kindness, and how it can halt hurtful behaviour in its tracks.

We are asking pupils and staff to get involved in the five days of kindness challenge.

This is a really simple challenge, commit to one act of kindness every day this week!

The challenge aims to start a chain reaction of kind words and kind acts that can share message of hope and positivity.

By spreading kindness, we champion how kindness can halt hurtful behaviour in its tracks. Keep an eye on the Pupil Support Twitter page next week to see what acts of kindness the Pupil Support team are carrying out!

Need some inspiration?

• Donate to a foodbank

• Start a conversation with someone new

• Tell someone they are doing a good job

• Hold a door open

• Ask someone if they are okay

• Give someone a compliment

Remember to share your act of kindness with your Pupil Support teacher or share your act of kindness on Twitter and tag @CarlukeHS or @_respectme_
