Enterprise Day 2022

The children all had a wonderful time during our annual Enterprise Day and it was lovely to see this event back in action.

Their entrepreneurial skills were certainly put to the test and they all did so well.

We are absolutely delighted to inform you that we raised a staggering £1142.30!

Your support was overwhelming and it is thanks to events like this that we can continue to enrich our curriculum for the good of your children in so many different ways. This includes visitors into school and subsidising trips out of school.

Well done to Argentina who were the overall winners raising just over £148.49.

Thank you everyone, it really is appreciated!

We are very excited and pleased to share with you that we have our next Clockhouse Value Champions!

A huge congratulations to

Avani C (Argentina)
who has earned the Excellence Champion Award for 2021-2022!

Avani is an eager learner with the desire to ensure everything she does is completed to the best of her ability. She is a fantastic role model to her peers and always ensures that she is showing excellence in anyway she can, as she refuses to show anything less than excellence. I am so proud of the person she has become and the effort she shows in everything she does!

Tyler M (Argentina)
who has earned the Learning Champion Award for 2021-2022!

Tyler is an eager learner who is always trying his hardest within our lessons. At times, he has found some of his learning challenging and at the beginning of the year would become overwhelmed. However, he has developed his resilience and now always continues to push through any challenges that he faces. We could not be prouder of the progress he has made this year.

Giorgio D (Peru)
who has earned the Nurture Champion Award for 2021-2022!

Giorgio is always considerate of the children in the class.  He will look after them if they are feeling ill or if they are upset.  He will then go back and check on them later on in the day.  He also shows this kindness towards members of staff.


A huge well done from everyone at Clockhouse - wear your Values Champion Badge with pride!

Time to CELEBRATE - Value Champion Alert!

We are very excited and pleased to share with you that we have our next Clockhouse Value Champions!

A huge congratulations to

Lucas P (South Africa)
who has earned the Excellence Champion Award for 2021-2022!

Lucas has worked so hard this year to come out of his comfort zone. He has really worked hard on talking to adults and children, he will now say hello to everyone in the morning as he walks down the corridor and goodbye to everyone at the end of the day. He is working extra hard at asking the other children for various objects and for help. He has also been super resiliant with not wearing his ear defenders and has managed full days without them! 

Aaron W (Fiji)
who has earned the Excellence Champion Award for 2021-2022!

Where do I begin with this child? To say I am proud of him would be a massive understatement. Since September he has made massive social improvements and he makes me and the class smile everyday. He has a very caring nature to him and loves to be at school with his teachers and friends. My main reasons for nominating him however, comes from our recent trip to Bournemouth. He grew so much during this week away and he made us all so proud of him. He entertained, made us laugh, was brave during the high ropes, showed so much independence and slept well every night. Well done Aaron, you are one amazing young man.


A huge well done from everyone at Clockhouse - wear your Values Champion Badge with pride!
