Global Community Links:
ECO Schools – Keep Britain Tidy environmental ownership in Schools
This is global, national and local work that we undertake that looks at the consequences of environmental impact, teaching our children about how we are custodians of our world and the actions that we take and their impact on the world around us.
Local Community Links
Heanor Vision. We have links to this local organisation to help our local community, it takes the form of consultation and presentation as well as involving ourselves in their projects such as the Young Entrepreneurs Competition and the Photographic Competition. They are also responsible for the Community Fair & Heanor Market.
Community Fair – We often attend the local Community Fair to advertise our latest project or sell items from activities that we have and are going to hold. We see this as a business opportunity and a shop window to help raise funds for our school.
HLTC – Heanor Loscoe Town Council. We have regular dialogue with our local council, through presenting our ideas and projects and asking for support as well as involving the local Councillors in the work that we do both in and out of school.
St Lawrence Church – We are affiliated to St Lawrence Church and have a very close relationship with the PCC and members of the church. We are always invited to all the major festivals and activities and many of our children attend the Coathangers Club that is held on our premises. Please see St Lawrence’s website for more details on their activities. www.stlawrenceheanor.org
Amber Valley – CIDs (Christians in Derbyshire) – CIDs have been involved with Mundy Junior School for a number of years. they provide both assemblies, a weekly club as well as Easter Workshops. They provide a wonderful Christian resource for our children, in a fun atmosphere.
Our children enter the David Neiper competition which is one of the few remaining manufacturing companies left in the Amber Valley. The competition entails the children entering hand made recycled garments along with several other local schools and a visit to the factory where the children have an opportunity to see how the garments are made.
As our local feeder school we have a great deal of engagement with Heanor Gate Spencer College. These entail sporting events, social events, transition and taster days.
Our children spend some very happy times at our beautiful Shipley Park. They make use of these facilities for Forest Schools, walks, nature expeditions, activities and educational opportunities. We are blessed to have such a wonderful resource on our doorstep which again broadens the children’s experiences and gives them a sense of pride in their community.
Blend Youth Project
Blend is part of our community engaging with older children. We have done projects with them as our children transition to secondary education.
Infinite Wellbeing is a Community Hub, in what was the Methodist Church, in Heanor. From Role-Play to After school club, Community Cinema to hosting HAF through the holidays. It's jam packed with lots to do.
Aldercar is another of our local secondary schools that many of our parents chose for their children.
