Volunteering

At ARH, we place a great importance on community and helping others. Giving is one of the '5 Ways to Wellbeing' and is important for our own wellbeing as well as being an excellent thing to do!

As a school, we give our children lots of opportunities to volunteer in school and encourage them to volunteer outside of school too. In school, they can be a Class Champion or a Terrific Transformer to help our school community.

The Kedzior Award

Each half-term, two children across the school can win our coveted Kedzior Award for their volunteering outside of the school. This can be through helping at home, helping others or volunteering in the community. 

Current Winners

We have three fantastic winners of our Kedzior Award this half-term who have achieved brilliant things outside of school.

Sophie was recognised for her compassion and community spirit after taking the initiative to support a local food bank and learn more about the important work it does.

Ava was nominated for her outstanding contribution to Leicestershire Police, where she volunteered her time to help officers develop their skills in communicating with young people.

Our Year 6 winner was celebrated for the exceptional kindness, care and maturity he has shown to those around him during a challenging period, demonstrating a level of empathy and responsibility far beyond his years.

We are incredibly proud of all three winners, who embody the values of kindness, service and courage, as well as all of the wonderful nominees we received this half-term.
