Our Ethos

A small federation of small schools in South Norfolk. We are making the schools that we would have wanted to go to. By working together in collaboration, we improve one another and support each other to grow. Sunflowers are known for their resilience and symbolise hope, happiness, and growth. Our federation nurtures childrens’ academic, personal, and spiritual growth. It inspires children, staff, and parents to strive for excellence in all aspects of their life, just as sunflowers grow towards the sun and reach their full potential.

The roots, for Brooke CE VC’s church foundations, indicate that we are rooted and grounded in God's love, which is at the core of all our actions and educational philosophy. The stem represents our curriculum, which provides a strong foundation for our children across both schools to grow and thrive. The leaves symbolise our values, which drive our decision-making and behaviour. The petals are indicative of our key focuses such as DEI, careers, and compassion. Lastly, the bees and butterflies that are flying away from the sunflower represent the things that we want our children to leave us with, which are the skills, knowledge, and attitudes needed to make a positive impact in the world.

Here are the Home Learning Grids and some resources for Autumn 1...

The Zones of Regulation 

The Zones of Regulation is a framework that helps children recognize and manage their emotions, energy, and attention so they can be more successful at school and home.

  • The Four Zones

    • Blue Zone: Low states of alertness (sad, tired, bored, sick).

    • Green Zone: Calm, focused, ready to learn (happy, relaxed, content).

    • Yellow Zone: Heightened alertness, but still in control (worried, excited, silly, frustrated).

    • Red Zone: Extremely heightened states of alertness and intense emotions (anger, panic, loss of control).

  • How It Works

    • The Zones give children a simple way to talk about how they feel.

    • Once they can identify their zone, they can learn strategies (deep breathing, taking a break, moving their body, talking it out) to manage their feelings and return to the Green Zone when needed.

    • It’s not about labelling feelings as “good” or “bad” – all feelings are normal. The goal is to recognize emotions and use tools to regulate them.

  • How Parents Can Help

    • Use the same language at home (“Which Zone are you in right now?”).

    • Normalize all zones by acknowledging that everyone experiences them.

    • Encourage and practice strategies together. For example: “I see you’re in the Yellow Zone—would a walk help you get back to Green?”

    • Model your own self-regulation by sharing your feelings and how you manage them.
