    • CHEXS and Burleigh Work Together

      Published 08/07/25

      On Monday 16th June, the children in the Growth Group worked with some residents from a local retirement centre, Emmanuel Lodge B3 Living. The impact was incredibly powerful, with both generations connecting through conversation, games, shared gardening, and creative activities. 

      The children were a real credit to the school and working with CHEXS gave them a valuable opportunity to build empathy, confidence and a sense of community.

      The feedback has been heart-warming:

      “Today was the best day ever – we helped clean their garden, they were so proud of us.”
      “I liked hearing about their lives and making them feel less lonely.”

      And from the residents:

      “They brought such energy and kindness – it was lovely to feel listened to and valued.”

    • Year 5: Spirit of the Wild Workshop

      Published 19/05/25

      Year 5 were treated to an unforgettable experience with the Spirit of the Wild workshop, where they had the chance to get up close and personal with a variety of fascinating animals. Tying into their South American topic, the children interacted with creatures including an eagle, snakes and meerkats, each of which played an important role in the ecosystems within South America.

      The workshop not only provided the children with a hands-on experience but also deepened their understanding of the natural world. They found out about the life cycles of these animals, the difference between poisonous and venomous species, and the crucial role each animal plays in their environment. The children were captivated as they held and observed the animals and discovered more about the animals’ diets, habits, and survival strategies.

      From the majestic eagle to the curious meerkats, the workshop was an educational and exciting journey that left the children both enchanted and enlightened about the wonders of South American wildlife. A truly memorable morning, it brought their learning to life in the most hands-on way possible!
