Our safer schools officer works with a charity boxing scheme on a Friday evening at the My Place community centre in Harold Hill and is inviting all our young people along. The class runs from 18:30 – 20:00 and the charity is called boxup crime. It has been funded by Havering Council, so it is completely free to pupils. For further details, visit www.boxupcrime.org
Havering Education Services recognises that as the cost of living continues to rise across the country, residents are going to be feeling the pinch this winter.
The Council’s new cost of living online hub (www.havering.gov.uk/costofliving) brings together all of the support available to residents – from financial help with food and energy bills to free school holiday meals and mental health.
The website contains links to the Havering Helps assistance scheme, details of warm spaces, council tax support, debt management services, energy grants, food banks and community hubs, as well as online benefits calculators so residents can be sure they’re receiving all the support they are entitled to.
Kooth have organised a webinar for parents / carers on the subject of -Support for young people experiencing anxiety or stress this Winter. The date of the webinar is Thursday 14th December from 6-7pm.

"On the 16th November, Wellbeing Ambassadors aged from 11-16 took part in training from Mr Leech (Crusaiders First Aid).
We learnt about how to be a good wellbeing ambassador and what we should do to make pupils' wellbeing good and stable at Emerson Park. Me and other year 11 pupils came up with ideas to try and connect our community at Emerson no matter what age, gender or mental health status. We discussed ideas about how we can improve wellbeing at school and feel strongly that no one should ever have to feel different.
Our aim is to improve wellbeing at Emerson Park Academy and we ae truly passionate about helping and supporting others.
This training has really helped us to improve the way we think about mental health and the massive stigma. We thank you for supporting us and helping us gain new knowledge".
Halle M- Year 11
Just a reminder that school is closed tomorrow, Friday 24th November and Monday 27th November for staff training days. We look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday.
School Lockers - update as of 02/11/2023
School lockers are available for rent.
Lockers can be rented in each form base area of the school, i.e. a pupil in Year 11 will only be able to rent a locker in the Year 11 area. The lockers are accessed by a code which is sent directly to you as parents / carers via email once you have rented the locker.
Locker queries are with the rental company rather than the Admin team at the school.
Please log on to www.locker.rentals where you should enter the school name. Once you have gone through the log on screen, you will see a drop-down menu of the class/ area allocated to your child and choose a locker etc.
Please note lockers are weatherproof, located outside & offered on a first come, first served basis.
Year 7 – Technology Area
Year 8 – Garden Store Area
Year 9 – Gym Area
Year 10 & 11 – Old H Block

Emerson Park Academy is, once again, celebrating an outstanding set of GCSE results.
The drive for academic excellence, with a focus on every pupil fulfilling their potential has really paid off.
There are too many individual success stories to name them all but the outstanding performers including Head Boy Shaan R, who leaves us with 5 grade 9s and 4 grade 8s (all A* grades in old terms.)
The five-year secondary school journey for these pupils has been incredibly challenging and yet they have shown incredible resilience and determination to succeed.
The need for teamwork has never been greater and pupils, staff, families all pulled together in this monumental effort that we should all take great pride in.
We also receive information about our alumni and their respective successes at A Level. We always keep an eye on their progress in Post-16 education and we are delighted that so many have gone on to rewarding apprenticeships, careers and university degree programmes.
We now look forward to starting the new academic year with the challenge of sustaining this trajectory of success.
We wish all of our pupils good luck in their future endeavours and we are sure they will go on to great things.
