Note from Lisa Maghak - School Governor
Lesson: Understanding the World
Dear Staff, Parents and Pupils of Westwood,
Today I had the absolute pleasure of being invited to school to attend the attestation for the class of year 5 and watched with pride as they were sworn in by the Chief Inspector as Mini Police.
The children looked amazing in their Mini Police uniforms, and it was lovely to see so many parents and carers there to support them. The children all received a Police badge and where excited as one by one they all sat in the driver's seat of the police van, which they all loved, and then, I think the most exciting thing for them was being allowed to set off the Police Siren! :-).
This is a wonderful opportunity for the school and the pupils, for them to be advocates of the police, and very much encouraged to liaise with them on a regular basis, giving the police ideas and suggestions of what they could put in place to make Buckley a better, safer place to be..or just to suggest how things that are already in place can be improved.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of this wonderful event...I look forward to the next installment :-)
Lisa Maghak
Vice Chair of Governors.
