Personal Development at AVA – A Fantastic First Half Term
It has been a fantastic first half term for Personal Development at Aylesbury Vale Academy, with students taking part in a wide range of activities celebrating diversity, leadership and our school community.
Our Black History Month celebrations brought students together through weekly tutor-time sessions exploring inspirational figures from the arts, science and sport. Activities also included lunchtime music, displays around the Academy, a dedicated library book collection and workshops led by our Diversity Clubs.
Student leadership continues to thrive, with our Student Parliament meeting every Tuesday to ensure students have a voice in school life. Our Prefects also meet weekly and are currently planning their first community project to make a positive difference across the Academy.
Looking Ahead
Next half term, we have a number of important celebrations and events planned, including:
-
Diwali celebrations (please see the attached flyer).
-
Bonfire Night and the story of Guy Fawkes.
-
Remembrance activities, with poppies available to purchase from Reception in support of the Poppy Appeal.
-
World Kindness Day, alongside tutor-time activities focusing on positive, healthy relationships.
We look forward to another busy and rewarding half term, continuing to encourage our
