Weekly Update Friday 3rd October

 

🌟 Hello BWIS families! We've had a fantastic week of learning and fun across the school. Here's what we've been up to…

 

🧠 Year R: Learning & Letters

Our youngest learners have been busy exploring new letters and numbers ✏️🔢. They've made brilliant use of their writing tables and are showing great progress. We’re so proud of their enthusiasm!

 

📸 Year R also had their photo taken for The News First Class feature. Look out for their smiling faces in the paper on 18th & 19th November. More info in the take-home leaflet!

 

🛍️ A huge THANK YOU to Sainsbury’s Bishops Waltham for donating lovely items for our role play shops. The children are loving their new goodies!

 

🚑 Year 1: Life-Saving Superstars

We welcomed the Hear Start visitors this week, who taught our Year 1 children life-saving skills. The children were focused, respectful, and absolutely brilliant! 👏💓

 

🕰️ Year 2: A Trip Back in Time

Year 2 travelled to Little Woodham for their history-led project. The sun was shining ☀️ and the children were full of questions about life in the 17th Century. What a curious bunch! 🏡📜

 

🦡 BADGER Values in Action

Whether on trips, with visitors, or in class, our children continue to shine by showing their BADGER values. We are so proud of them all! 🌈💫

 

📚 Library News

Our local library came 2nd in the County for the Summer Reading Challenge! What a brilliant achievement. Well done to everyone who took part! 🥈📖

 

🏉 Red Roses Victory

Last weekend we cheered on the Red Roses in the World Cup final—and they WON! 🎉🏆 Two players will be at Trojans Girls Day tomorrow. See the poster below for details on how to join in!

 

🏫 Open Morning

We had a lovely Open Morning for prospective Year R parents. Visitors were very impressed with our school! Most children currently come from the Bishops Waltham catchment, but places for out of catchment children vary year to year. If you know someone interested, please ask them to give us a ring ☎️.

 

❓ Let’s Get Quizzical!

🎟️ Tickets are selling fast for our Quiz Night! £10 includes a sharing platter, and all proceeds go towards a new sit-in sandpit for Year R. Come along for a fun evening with friends and a busy (and very reasonably priced) bar. Please do not leave it too late to book!🍹🍻.

 

👨‍👩‍👧 Year R Parent Catch-Up

Thank you to the 12 parents who joined our catch-up talk today. Teachers loved chatting and answering questions. Our next chance to meet will be at Parent Teacher Meetings in November.

 

📷 Photo Day Next Week

Next Wednesday is Individual Photo Day! Evening slots are available for family/group photos too—perfect gifts for loved ones 🎁💖.

 

Wishing all our families a lovely weekend!

 

Best Wishes
