  Right of the Week - Keeping families together

Children should not be separated from their parents unless they are not being looking after properly.  For example, if a parent hurts or does not take care of their child.  Children whose parents don't live together should stay in contact with both parents unless this might harm the child.  

Please have a lovely October break - look after yourself and each other! :-)

Are you interested in film? Good news! Knox is starting up its very own film club!

We’ll watch and discuss films we enjoy, learn about the different aspects that go into creating a film and hopefully make a short film of our own by the end of the year!

The club will take place every Wednesday lunch time in Mr Tait’s room (Tech T4).

If you’re interested, complete this Google Form or email me personally. It would be great to see people come along! Starting after the October Holidays (2025).
