Important Invitation to Y5 from the Headteacher

Monday 14th July 2025

Dear Parent/Carer,

As the end of the academic year approaches it is time to think about which children will step into the important role of Head Boy and Head Girl for 2025/26. This year’s head children have been excellent role models and have fulfilled their duties outstandingly including:

  • being ambassadors for the school
  • peer mentoring
  • greeting visitors including the Mayor of Haringey
  • contributing to school council meetings once every half term
  • supporting with fundraising events
  • assisting during Celebration Assembly

All children who are currently in Year 5 are invited to write a statement to explain why they should be considered to take on this role. All statements should be submitted by morning registration on Friday 18th July 2025. Please hand this to your Class Teacher for the attention of the Headteacher.

Each year we receive a number of statements for consideration. Submissions are considered alongside each applicant’s contribution, commitment and achievement over their time at our school including; outstanding attendance, demonstration of Anchor behaviours, completion of home learning projects,  and participation in the Headteacher’s Awards.

I look forward to receiving your child’s application for this very important role. All candidates will be carefully considered over the summer holidays and appointed upon our return in September 2025.

Yours sincerely,
Julie D’Abreu | Headteacher
