At Cinnamon Brow we encourage and support our children to be "courageous advocates". This means they champion causes which are special and meaningful to them. These may be global issues or matters far more personal and closer to home.
We believe this develops resilience, teamwork, courage and independence and an understanding of the wider world and how they can help make it a better place, enabling our children to flourish.

Christian Aid
As part of our Harvest celebrations we learnt about Angela's farming community in Nicaragua and the hardships that they are facing due to climate change.
Over the harvest period our children complete their task of running the length of the Nicaraguan Canal a whopping 171 miles!
The sponsors raised for this marathon task totalled £434.40
Thank you!

On Friday 13th November, alongside hundreds of pupils across the country we took part in activities and fundraising for BBC's Children in Need appreal.
We supported Joe Wicks with his 24 hour workout challenge and took part in workouts all across the school.
Again your unwavering kindness raised £242.90 for this wonderful and much needed cause.
Football Shirt Friday
Tyler, Louis and Jacob wanted to raise awareness for a cause very close to their hearts. After losing family members to bowel cancer the boys requested we take part in The Bobby Moore Fund - Football Shirt Friday with Cancer Research UK.
All donations sent in will be counted and sent directly to this Charity.
St Rocco’s Elf run
On Friday 4th December we took part in St Rocco's Elf run. All children and staff received an Elf hat as we all complete a 'lap' of our 'land'!
Thank you so much for your generous donations and support of this local charity!

Awareness can take many forms:
