Children in 2L have been having great fun learning to ride balance bikes with Bikeability. The sessions have helped them build confidence, coordination, and control as they worked on gliding, steering, and stopping safely.Â
The children have loved the challenge, and it’s been wonderful to see their skills grow each week as they become more independent on two wheels.
The Bikeability instructor will be returning in February to work with the children in 2P.
Well done to all of the KS1 Pride of Plover winners this week. We heard stories of tremendous personal growth, resilience and hard work. It makes us all so proud to hear how people can overcome personal challenges to make improvements in their learning and to grow into more independent learners. A big well done to all of our winners!

We have been working hard using manipulatives to understand how to add and subtract two 2-digit numbers from each other. We used lots of practice to make the numbers and to see the process of exchanging happening. We began to use more formal methods of organising our work. We have made great progress!

2P has continued learning about e-safety and also how bullying can be done through online platforms. We used a story to help us learn a song that we can use to help us to be safe online. We then created a personalised poster that we can take home and it will remind us what to do if we ever encounter a problem online.

We couldn’t resist a little adventure into the snow this morning! The children had snow much fun playing with their friends, tasting the snow, and even attempting a few snow angels—despite our gentle reminder that there really wasn’t quite enough snow for that yet.
It was a wonderfully joyful start to the day. And just like that—blink—and the snow was gone. But we made the most of every moment while it lasted!
We started off anti-bullying week by celebrating Odd Sock day. For this we did a sponsored walk on the playground and we then designed our own odd socks by printing repeating patterns. We explored turn taking activities within our play and we demonstrated kindness by making flowers and delivering them to teachers around school; brightening up their day.
Apologies for the delay due to the school residential. Here are our Pride of Plover winners from last week. We heard about resilience, kindness, compassion and patience being demonstrated by our different winners this week. It is always a highlight of the week to see how our children are growing and developing skills that will help them both now and in later life. Well done to all of our winners!

Our KS1 children have been busy learning all about Remembrance Day and the importance of the poppy. They created a beautiful video to share what they’ve learned — from honouring brave heroes to understanding why we wear poppies with pride.
