Morrisons are running a voucher collection scheme until the 24th October.
We can collect vouchers and exchange them for gardening supplies and equipment later in the year.
If you shop in Morrison’s please collect the vouchers and send them into school with your child.
Thank you.
Some of you may have noticed this unusual bin in our car park.
We have joined the School Connect fundraise and recycle scheme.
If you have any unwanted clothes or shoes at home please send them into school with your child. These can then be recycled and raise funds for the school. Please do not come into the school grounds and use the bin yourself, clothes must come through the school.
Thank you
Year 4 started the week with a shared story called ‘Something Else’. This was the name given to a creature by his ‘friends’. We shared our feelings and thoughts.
‘It doesn’t matter what we look like but what’s inside that counts’, Skye
‘We all have different hair colours, eye colours, skin colours’, Hasan
‘We have different likes and dislikes; personalities’, James
‘We have different jobs, religions and family members’, Harjan
‘We are all different. If we were all the same, it would be boring’ Lillie R
We enjoyed a range of activities this week, particularly making and eating our fruit kebabs!
Year 5 have been debating and learning about stereotypes related to gender. It was interesting to discuss with the class what the children think boys and girls should like and what professions certain genders should do. We read the story ‘I’m a girl,’ which opened up discussions about how just because your a certain gender doesn’t mean you have to behave in a particular way or like certain things. We discussed how it might make us feel if someone said something about our personality in a negative way due to our gender. The children made handprints to celebrate their differences and what makes them special as their own person. ‘We are us!’ and that makes us amazing no matter what we like or what we do!
Due to coronavirus, people are spending more time online this year. This means more opportunities for hackers to carry out cyber attacks.
This guide from NCSC has some great tips for personal safety.
Year 5 have had a Christmassy afternoon after the Christmas lunch making their calendars. They are beautiful and individual! We love them! 🏻
Year 5 have been learning about square numbers in Maths. On Monday, we created squares using multi link and discussed what makes a square number. Today we have done some fluency work to show an understanding of what we have learned so far and practised our Maths skills. Ask your child to tell you the square numbers we have learned about and what a square number is?
Some of the children took part in a great opportunity to take part in Level 1 Bikeability. They passed with flying colours and in record time too. The children were presented with their certificates, badges and booklet on Friday 4 December 2020 in our Class Achievement Assembly by Mr Rogers.
