Byte Night is the IT industry’s annual sleep out in support of Action for Children. In 2012, Byte Night events will be hosted in London, Cambridge, Thames Valley and Scotland on Friday 5 October 2012. Each year hundreds of individuals and teams from across the IT and business community spend a night exposed to the elements in a bid to raise sponsorship and awareness of Action for Children’s work.
It all began 12 years ago when 30 individuals from the IT industry slept out and raised £35,000. In 2011, over 800 people from the IT and business communities slept out in London, Cambridge, Thames Valley and Scotland and raised £750,000 for Action for Children.

Consider what skills and attributes your child will need to be successful later in life, not just in school and homework but in all aspects of life. Confidence, independence, concentration and self-motivation are all attributes of an independent learner and this is something that children can develop from a young age.
Directed teaching for a specific topic may help children pass an exam or get a high mark for a homework task but it doesn’t prepare them to answer questions on different topics or help them to overcome challenges beyond school work. Independent learning skills help a child to experience a situation or challenge they have never experienced before and enable them to utilise their independent skills to confidently solve the problem.
As children start to take ownership of their learning and experience success they also develop invaluable confidence and self-motivation. This can increase their enjoyment across a wide range of subjects at school whilst also preparing them for personal and professional success later in life. At your local Woodbridge Kumon Centre all children are nurtured to become confident, independent learners.
Woodbridge Kumon Centre will be holding an information session at the Hub at lunchtime on Tuesday 15 May so please pop by to find out more.

Representatives from Fullfledge Ecology School will be available in the Hub at lunchtime on Thursday 10 May to explain their vision for a ground-breaking school in Suffolk for 3-18 year olds, ensuring there is another school in the area for parents to choose from.
A group of teachers and parents have been developing the vision for a ground-breaking school in Suffolk for 3-18 year olds. In February 2012 they submitted a proposal to the Department for Education to open a Free School in September 2013. The proposal has been shortlisted and they are now preparing their case for the next stage.
Their approach will be based on Steiner’s view of child development with a matching Waldorf curriculum that inspires children with learning that meets the childrens’ interests and all-round needs at any given time. There are many parallels with the successful approaches adopted by Scandinavian education systems such as Finland and Denmark. The integrated use of the Arts and the outdoors will be a distinctive feature of the school and a well-proven means to support excellent educational outcomes.
By supporting them you can help to ensure there is another school in the area for you to choose from. Parents can sign up via www.fullfledgeschool.co.uk and visit the Fullfledge Ecology School group Facebook page. Come and find out more by visiting the Hub at lunchtime on 10 May.
