Weekly Update Friday 25th October

All of our classes have started their next Learning Projects, and they are very excited about what is coming up. Year R have been learning about Stickman and using our lovely autumnal grounds. Year 1 are very busy writing scripts and learning how to make puppets for their traditional tales whilst developing their interdependence skills. Year 2 are looking forward to becoming geographers, developing competency in their geographical skills through their study of New Zealand. Remember to look at the learning leaflet and the vocabulary bookmark that has come home, in order to support your child's knowledge and oracy skills as they learn.

We loved our Spooky Friday Sweet Treats from our PTA today.  Thank you to Claire and the gang for these!  You can also support our PTA at the bonfire event running on the 2nd November at Hoe Road. We have a new date for our Crazy M disco  on Friday 22nd November. Tickets will carry over to the new date. All money raised goes towards supporting the children in school, and can either be left as a donation, or a refund can be made via the PTA.

Year 2 have really been enjoying their lunchtime clubs this half term. Have a look at the clubs pages on our website. I wanted to celebrate our amazing painters who came to my painting club- their fantastic pumpkin paintings are at the end of this news-I can't wait to do more with you next half term! They are currently displayed in our entrance hall, if anyone would like to see them.

Just a reminder, that our Parent Teacher meetings are in the first week back after half term. Please book in using our online system. 

Lastly we would like to congratulate Mrs Withers and her husband on the birth of their daughter, Arabella. Mum and baby are home and doing well. Congratulations to all and we cannot wait to meet her!

We hope wish everyone a lovely half term break.

Best wishes

Mrs Riches

Headteacher
