Final words so far..

As our Year 6’s get ready to embark on their next chapters, they have the opportunity to reflect on their time at Primary and how they have developed as a learner as well as how they are preparing themselves for secondary school. I am so proud of you all and all you have achieved during your time at Plover. You have all presented with so much confidence and I feel privileged to have a been part of your journey!

I can’t wait to see more final words next week!

UKS2 COL & colour run reminder!

A polite reminder about our UKS2 celebration of learning event- Monday 1st July! Children will be participating in a colour run to raise funds for a mental health charity which supports schools by offering in-school counselling for pupils and for XP outdoor equipment. We would LOVE as many parents and carers to join us as possible. You don’t have to run and you don’t have to complete the full laps. One lap would be amazing! It’s £1.50 per participant. Refreshments will be on sale as well as an on the day raffle with all proceeds going to the very worthy causes.

The children are SO excited to share their final product and reflect on the expeditionary learning this term. They have worked so hard and we are so very proud of them. We can not wait to see you all there at 1:45pm

Thank you for your continued support!

Time to read crew- reading for pleasure!

In crew, our UKS2 children have been enjoying reading their books outside with their friends. They discussed which books they have read this week. They shared the author of the books, the genre and a summary of the texts so far. The children then each made a pledge to read a recommend text next. We have been able to build on our ‘texts we have read’ displays and we have nearly met our class targets!

We love to read in UKS2! 🙂

UKS2 family learning- using our strawberries to create a dessert!

Thank you so much to all of the parents and carers who came to our family learning event this afternoon. It was an amazing turn out!

Our children, parents and carers had the opportunity to use the freshly picked strawberries from yesterday’s fieldwork to make a dessert together. I know the children had so much fun. They are so passionate about the importance of utilising home-grown produce based on prior learning in their autumn Expedition and I know many shared their pledges with their parents today on how they will incorporate this into their every-day lives.

We hope you all enjoyed the tasty treats and we look forward to welcoming you all to our celebration of learning event on the 1st July to reveal our final product and to participate in our phase colour run, whilst raising money to support our children’s mental well-being. We can not wait!

Our case study three fieldwork- strawberry picking!

Today Year 5 & 6 pupils built on their autumn expedition where they learnt about how growing your own produce can help protect our planet and how this links to our current Expedition ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ Instead of purchasing strawberries from a shop, they spent the afternoon strawberry picking at a local strawberry field. They will be using the strawberries as part of our family learning event tomorrow. They were so impressed with how fresh all of the strawberries were and have shared that they want to encourage their family and friends to get involved with growing their own fruit and vegetables!

I can’t wait to see the outcome of the healthy desserts tomorrow!
