11/06/2026Empathy Day Festival 2026 - Read for Empathy
We’re proud to be celebrating the Empathy Day Festival in our library this week!
Did you know that reading can build empathy? When we jump into a character’s story, we see the world through new perspectives, understand different experiences, and grow kinder, and more connected as a result.
This year’s #ReadForEmpathy Collection is packed with powerful, thought-provoking books —exploring identity, relationships, resilience, and understanding others.
Great news: We have many of these titles available in the library right now!

Be a Journalist Day 2026
In honour of BBC Young Reporter, a small group of Year 8 students took part in a 'Be a Journalist Day'. Mrs Ewing ran a session on research and fact-checking before students researched a topic of their choice. Students conducted interviews and wrote their own articles based upon their findings; topics ranged from AI, sportswashing, rising costs, and David Attenborough. We hope you enjoy reading some of their work.
