As an inclusive school, you may have noticed that we introduce the children to sign language as part of their every day learning. We all sign our greetings in class and community worship, and you may have spotted that sign language was included at all the nativity performances. In this video you can hear the children sing and watch them sign 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas!'
Exmouth has a large and thriving deaf community and we're enabling our children to be great communicators. Perhaps you could ask them to teach you a few signs too?
Supporting Mental Health at Withycombe Raleigh Primary.
Each year a number of children attend some training to become valued Mental Health Ambassadors (MHA) for our school. To further develop their volunteer MHA roles, they have been invited to attend a Mental Health Ambassador Celebration Event at Exmouth Community College, hosted by Head’s Up mental health service, together with the MHAs from ECC, on Monday 3rd February 2025.
Mrs L Jones, our dedicated Wellbeing TA, will attend with the MHAs who will be introduced to a range of activities linked to supporting mental health in schools and will be able to take ideas away of how to improve mental wellbeing at our school. This is also an exciting opportunity for the pupils to meet with other MHAs across the Exmouth school community.
