At our school we use THRIVE. As part of our adoption of the Thrive Approach, we carry out assessments of whole classes and individual children in relation to their social and emotional development. This assessment is automatically analysed, providing indicators of any particular areas for development and support. The results are used to guide the teacher or other adult as to the activities and teaching that would be useful for that class or child.    Thrive.pdf

On Monday 6th February 2023, two earthquakes of 7.8 and 7.5 magnitudes struck South East Turkey and Syria, causing widespread destruction and leaving many families in dire need of help. More than 17,000 have died and thousands more have been injured. Many families lost their homes and the weather is bitterly cold. This has affected at least one of our families at Manor Green Primary, therefore we have taken the initiative to create our own support page, raising vital funds for the DEC Emergency Aid Charity. Any donation to our page will be gratefully received. Please find attached our fundraising page: Manor Green is fundraising for Disasters Emergency Committee (justgiving.com) Thank you for your continued support.

Acorns Class were delighted to be named Tilgate Bakery's 'Your Local Heroes' last week and received some delicious jam donuts! Nominated by Vic, who says "Acorns class at Manor Green Primary is a class of all non verbal autistic children. The children have to have a lot of 1-2-1 support with everyday life. The staff are more than teaching staff. The small group of staff within that class, go above and beyond daily. Not just teaching, life skills, they support parents, set up behaviour / support plans and so much more. The staff are a lifeline to many parents. It would be lovely for them to be recognised for going above and beyond."
