Good afternoon families,

I hope this message finds you well. Tomorrow marks the culmination of our Culture Day celebration, a week-long journey filled with diverse activities aimed at embracing and honouring our rich cultural diversity. Tomorrow, students are encouraged to proudly wear attire that reflects their unique heritage and personal identity. Today I have emphasised to our students the importance of feeling comfortable and empowered as they join us in celebrating the beauty of our diversity, culture, and individual identities.

Our Culture Day celebrations are an integral part of the personal development offerings here at Co-op Academy Belle Vue. Through events like these, we aim to nurture physically healthy and mentally well-rounded citizens of modern Britain who actively contribute to society and have the knowledge and skills to keep themselves and others safe.

Tomorrow's festivities will feature a variety of engaging events, including a henna station. However, it's important to note that students will only be able to participate in the henna station with parental consent. If you grant permission for your child to partake in this activity, kindly complete the Google Form available via this link.

On another note, I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to the parents who were able to join us for our inaugural Careers Fair this past Tuesday. The insights and experiences shared during the fair were invaluable to our students as they navigate important life decisions. A detailed report and photo gallery from the event can be accessed here. Career advice and guidance are fundamental components of personal development and are crucial in maximising the life chances of our students.

Should you have any questions or require further information, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Thank you for your ongoing support and involvement in our school community.

Warm regards,
Mr Daniel Haste
Assistant Vice Principal - Personal Development
