Public Meeting at LCPS for potential students/parents of new secondary school in Littleport
Wed 29 Jun 201624 June 2016
Dear Parent / Carer
The Active Learning Trust : A new Littleport school
As you know, two new schools are being developed in Littleport. The Active Learning Trust is proud to be sponsoring the new secondary and special school that are currently under construction. A public meeting for potential students and parents will be held at Littleport Primary School at 6pm on Tuesday 5 July 2016 to allow you to meet the ALT team and also look at images and plans for the school.
At the heart all of our work is the engagement with the local community, schools and especially the children and young people who we aim to provide outstanding opportunities and life chances for.
Along with the construction of the build and development of the curriculum, a first part of this exciting project is to design the school logo and branding. We would like your child to use the attached A4 template to create a logo for the new school. For example, the logo, use of colour and images could reflect:
-
Local historic events
-
Names and themes of the local environment
-
Particular aspirational or motivational themes.
As well as drawing the logo, the children may want to annotate their picture to explain the details and inclusion of particular details. A selection of logos will be chosen and displayed online at www.newlittleportschools.org for the public to vote for their favourite. The successful logo/logos will then be sent to our graphic design team who will develop the image further so that it can then be used as part of the school signage and overall branding. The successful artist will also be awarded with a prize.
Completed submissions can be handed in at school by Friday 8 July or scanned and emailed to info@activelearningtrust.org. A winner will be announced in September 2016.
Yours faithfully
Gary Peile
CEO Active Learning Trust
