Reading Champions!

24th March 2023Sophie Elmer

Another week where we have been able to celebrate lots more Reading Champions in school! It was great to see so many children stood up in Achievers Assembly this week being celebrated for their awesome reading at home. It was lovely to see the beaming smiles on children’s faces and to listen to them talk about how proud they felt. Thank you again to those adults at home who are taking the time to listen to their child/ren read very night.

This week we also celebrated the Crews who collectively read the most at home last week. Crew Marsh won it for KS1 and Crew MI for KS2.

Well done to all of our Reading Champions and their amazing adults at home!

Sketching – Martin Luther King

23rd March 2023Ruth Shields

During our expedition lessons this week, we have completed our first draft of Martin Luther King. When we finished we hd a gallery walk to allow us to appreciate the hard work everyone had put in to their art work. We then discussed critique and how we could make them even better next time. Although they were a first draft, I’m extremely proud of what they have produced and it was lovely hearing them express how they were proud of themselves during check out. Keep an eye out for the next draft…

Bicycles/Scooters on school grounds

23rd March 2023Admin Carcroft

Please can children refrain from riding bicycles and scooters on the playgrounds when entering and leaving school. Please can they walk with their bicycle or scooter when on the school grounds. This is a health and safety issue as children are riding and scooting fast around the playground when parents and children are waiting to enter classrooms. We have had a few near misses with children nearly being knocked over.

Thank you for your cooperation.

MI finish their newspaper reports

Some beaming faces today in MI 🙂 Children completed their final draft of their newspaper reports and felt such pride when this was finished. Such fantastic writing! Even though we found the piece extremely challenging, MI showed such determination and resilience throughout the piece.
