KS1 Christmas Celebration

Children will bring home the letter with details about how to book tickets to the Chrsitmas Celebration on Tuesday, 9th December.

The show is limited to 2 tickets per family (across the 9.30 am or 2.15 pm performances) to allow us to try and maximise the viewing for the audience.

We would also like to make families aware the performances will be seated only. This is to allow staff to sign to children throughout the performances.

Each performance will have a maximum of approximately 120 tickets available. These will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis from Wednesday morning.

Thank you for your support

2L Balance Bikes

3rd December 2025Stuart Longley

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. 

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.

Pride of Plover!

25th November 2025Mr Pickering

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!

Maths stars!

25th November 2025Mr Pickering

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!

We know how to be e-safe!

25th November 2025Mr Pickering

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 are writers!

25th November 2025Mr Pickering

2P has been working really hard to develop our basic sentence structures by recognising the subject, verb and complement in a sentence. We used our text “We are all Wonders” to help us to use this sentence structure. Great work!
