Be a Champion
We are always looking at ways to enhance the wellbeing of our pupils and we are delighted to announce that we are offering our pupils the chance to take part in an exciting new challenge, which is being organised by former Leeds Rhinos Rugby League player, Jamie Peacock.
Jamie Peacock, Leeds Rhinos Rugby League legend,
“I was able to excel in my career because of my focus and understanding of the importance of wellbeing. If you don’t know already, wellbeing consists of 4 areas:
Positive Mindset
Sleeping Well,
Physical Activity
Eating Healthily”
This programme is suitable for pupils in the UK aged 10 and over.
How do I access the challenge?
To register for the challenge please complete the below link:
Jamie Peacock In Partnership with Schools Advisory Service is pleased to share the Be A Champion 30 Day Pupil Wellbeing Programme. Jamie and SAS wanted to help schools, academies and parents / guardians with resources to support their pupils and to empower young people to look after their mental and physical wellbeing.
Jamie will introduce the 30 day challenge during a webinar where he will discuss his experience and how working on the four areas of wellbeing have affected his career and helped Jamie be a champion.

Team Ox Close back together
It has great to have all of the children back in school this week. The smiles and cheers on Monday morning was lovely to see and hear. They have all had a fabulous week, worked hard and adapted well to our new routines.

School Reopening – Monday 8th March
Good news – we are back!
As you are most likely aware, the government have announced that all school are to reopen from Monday 8th March to all pupils. We are very excited to see all of the children and get back in to a new routine in school. We are sure, that like us, you have some questions and anxieties about the return so we hope that the letter below helps.
Remote Learning Offer
When children are required to be at home, and unable to attend school – the learning does not stop at Ox Close Primary.
Since October 2020, schools have been required by law to provide effective education to those children who are unable to access face to face teaching; Ox Close Primary has risen to the challenge.
Further information regarding our Remote Learning Offer can be found here:
If you have any further questions then please do not hesitate to contact Miss Bowden, Head of School.

Huge well done to all of the children for being amazing this week – we have had great levels of engagement once again in the live lessons and the children in school are also working very hard.
