In the final episode of this academic year, the Soar Beyond Podcast celebrates aspiration, creativity and the powerful impact of our school community.
We kick off with a special focus on Aspiration and Careers Day, where children met inspiring guests from a wide range of professions – from artists to teachers – and began to reflect on their own hopes for the future, whether that’s finding success, making others feel good, or simply being the best version of themselves. Year 6 pupils share their personal ambitions and how they plan to soar beyond.
In Outdoor Learning, pupils talk us through their exciting plans to revamp the school’s obstacle course and garden area – from hammocks to spiderwebs – all in the name of fun, fitness, and environmental care.
This episode also features a warm and thoughtful conversation with Mrs Gopal and Mrs Harris, who reflect on their very different paths into education. From volunteering to becoming a vital support in our ERP, and from law school to headship, their stories reveal a shared love of nurturing young people through creativity, care, and community.
And finally, Book Talk features Jacob, one of Whittle’s most enthusiastic readers, as he shares his love for Dav Pilkey, nighttime reading, and his own original comic series inspired by a very special toy.
A heartfelt and hopeful end to the year. Thank you for listening, and see you next year as we continue to Soar Beyond! 🚀📚🌿
