On Monday, children visited our New Beginnings Prayer Spaces to reflect on their year ahead at Riverview. They worked together to create a collage to remind them of their differences and specialness, went on ‘Wow’ walks to appreciate what makes our school amazing and thought about their hopes – big and small. At the end, we took the opportunity to share our thoughts about the Queen and what was WOW about her.
