Virtual Assembly
Designed to replicate what we do at the start of every week in school, our virtual assembly features a special guest interview every week with a key message for our students, staff and parents.
This week’s special guest is Linda Sage who has a very interesting job…. and a local radio show on East Leeds radio. She says she’ll read out any dedications and play song requests from Fyling Hall students. Ideally she wants to hear poems or thoughts about what it’s like for young people in lockdown (we can listen on the internet). She’s talking to us about how to unlock our own prisons of limiting self belief about what we can achieve if we stop sabotaging ourselves.
After School Clubs & Competitions
To bring a distraction to the pupils’ week we run a selection of after school activities and competitions. These provide a different focus and experience whilst at home, as well as some fun.
Our Art Studio‘s third edition of Art Leaders’ Lockdown Club Creative is out!
and Mr Thomas’ Latin Club and Frau Trotter’s Duolingo German Competition also continue.
Mental Health & Wellbeing
Rest assured, Fyling Hall is here to support you and our students as much as possible during this difficult time. Your mental health and wellbeing are our priority. Remember, you can contact Mrs English at any time for support.
Keeping Active
Have you tried any of Mr Coates’ PE with a Difference challenges? A new one is coming soon!
