	<link>https://www.redmile.leics.sch.uk/news/?pid=98&amp;nid=2&amp;storyid=17</link>	<description><![CDATA[<p id="paragraph_JS8zLYNbrE0">Our Year 6 children enjoyed an unforgettable week on their residential trip to PGL last week. Despite the heatwave, they embraced every challenge with enthusiasm, determination and a positive attitude.</p>

<p id="paragraph_WL8zLY7brE0">Throughout the week, the children took part in a wide range of exciting activities, including the giant swing, Jacob&rsquo;s Ladder, laser tag and raft building. They demonstrated excellent teamwork, resilience and confidence, supporting one another and encouraging their peers to step outside their comfort zones.</p>

<p id="paragraph_jE8zLYtarE0">We were incredibly proud of how the children represented our school during the trip. Their behaviour, kindness and willingness to have a go at every activity made the residential a huge success.</p>

This year, we were even joined by a rather enthusiastic thunderstorm, which clearly wanted to get involved in the action too! Thankfully, it didn&rsquo;t dampen spirits, and everyone showed fantastic resilience and enthusiasm throughout. A special thank you to Miss Griffin (and our brilliant Year 6s!) for organising such a wonderful afternoon</p>

The sessions helped to build confidence, teamwork, and enjoyment of the sport.</p>

	<link>https://www.redmile.leics.sch.uk/news/?pid=98&amp;nid=2&amp;storyid=9</link>	<description><![CDATA[<p>Happy Birthday, Sir David Attenborough! <img alt="🌍" height="16" src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t3f/1/16/1f30d.png" title="" width="16" />&nbsp;</p>

<p>We had an amazing time celebrating Sir David Attenborough&rsquo;s 100th birthday, including sharing birthday cake and sending a birthday card to the man himself! To honour someone who has spent his whole life caring for our planet, we spent the day doing what he loves most&mdash;helping nature!</p>

<p>Our classes got busy planting wildflower seeds to help bees and butterflies, and we made beautiful nature art using leaves, petals and other natural treasures we found outside. We also created mini‑habitats around school so tiny creatures have new places to explore and call home.</p>

<p>One of the best parts of the day was watching our Eco Council in action! Wearing their trusty wellies, they rolled up their sleeves and cleaned out the school pond, making it a safer, happier place for wildlife. They also added a cosy new hedgehog hut, put up bird feeders, and planted special oxygenating pond plants to keep the water fresh for frogs, insects and other pond friends.</p>

<p>All these activities showed that, just like Sir David teaches us, even small actions can make a big difference.</p>

<p>By planting, creating, exploring and caring for our environment, we helped make our school grounds a better place for nature - and had lots of fun doing it! <img alt="🌿" height="16" src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t1e/1/16/1f33f.png" title="" width="16" /><img alt="💚" height="16" src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t94/1/16/1f49a.png" title="" width="16" /></p>
