Wellbeing Surf to School Day 

On Friday 15th May, we will be holding a Wellbeing Surf to School Day in support of two amazing charities that support many of our families: Healing Waves and Happy Heroes. This event has been designed by our School Council. 

Dress Down & Donation:  

Children are encouraged to wear their best summer or beach‑themed clothing. 
We are suggesting a £2 voluntary donation, which will be shared between both charities.  

Surf to School Walking Bus: 

Children are welcome to join our Walking Bus - We will walk to school together in our beach‑themed dress down!  

Morning: Meet at Millbrook Park Car Park between 8.10am – 8.15am. 

Afternoon: The Walking Bus will return to the Glass Church Car Park for 3.30pm. 

Please let Mrs Fernandes or your child’s class teacher know if you would like your child to take part in the Surf to School Walking Bus.  

Wellbeing Activities: 

Classes will take part in a range of inclusive, beach-themed wellbeing activities.
