At Plover, we will be celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 5th March.
As always, children are invited to come to school dressed as a book character, but in Year 3 and 4, we are linking the day to our current Expedition and we are asking for children to come dressed up as characters from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Please do not feel you have to go out and buy a costume, there are lots of fantastic ideas for inspiration at very low cost online.
Just a reminder that these ten children are taking part in the Y3/4 basketball tournament tomorrow afternoon at XPE school
Y3- Sreelakshmi, Kyla S, Bella F
Y4 – Paisley C, Nevaeh C, Sulieman A, Arez A, Namsong R, Aria T, Jayce A
Can all children please come in their PE kit tomorrow (white top, black/navy hoody/jumper, shorts/leggings/joggers, trainers) and bring a water bottle.
Children will have their lunch at school as normal, then Miss Brown, Coach Calum and the children will get picked up by the bus at 12.45pm and they will be back at Plover for 4.15pm, for parents/carers to collect.
This year, we combined our Celebration of Learning with our Christmas Celebration, as the story of Christmas reinforces what we have been learning about people that need to leave their homes to find safety.
We started by sharing what we have learnt this term and then acted out the Nativity.
Well done to everyone involved – the acting and narrating was great and the singing really put us in the Christmas spirit!
Thank you parents and carers for all your support this term.
The LKS2 Crew would just like to take this opportunity to wish you a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Our children would like to invite you to attend their Student-Led Conferences (SLCs), which will take place during the first two weeks of January. The conferences are scheduled for Thursday 8th, Tuesday 13th, and Thursday 15th January, with appointments available between 3.30pm and 6.00pm.
Please click on the link for the relevant class below, or scan the QR code, to book an SLC appointment.
During the conference, your child will share and discuss their learning and HoWLS from the Autumn term.
Should you have any questions, please contact your child’s class teacher.
Just to confirm, we will be holding our Year 3 and 4 Christmas Celebration and Celebration of Learning on 16th December at 2pm at St Aidan’s Church, Wheatley Hills (not Friday 5th December).
Please book tickets via the letter that has been sent home this week.
Emorie in 3G and her mum are showing real kindness by raising money to support people with caner by organising a ‘Sponsored Hair Chop’.
This is their very personal reason for taking this charitable challenge:
“This one’s for our beautiful friend, Chloe ❤️
Emorie and I have decided to do a sponsored hair chop to raise money for Chloe, who is facing cancer with incredible courage and strength. She truly is an inspiration.
Chloe is currently undergoing treatment and facing the toughest fight of her life.
As Chloe has been losing her hair through treatment, we wanted to stand beside her — so we’re giving up our hair in solidarity, raising funds to help her through her journey
We’ll also be donating our hair in Chloe’s name to help others who need wigs after losing theirs, so this little act of love can go even further.
Every penny raised will go directly towards helping Chloe and her family during this time. She is such a devoted amazing mum to her little boy and deserves to feel like herself again.
If you’re able to donate or share, any amount will help, no matter how big or small — it would mean the world to us
I can also accept cash donations this week on the school run, or if you’d like to donate another way, please send me a message.
We’ve got 21 days to raise as much as we can before our chop, so please give whatever you can
Thankyou for all your kindness and generosity”
If you would like to support Emorie in raising as much money as possible, here is the link to their Go Fund Me page;
Thursday 2nd October is the day of the school neon disco. KS2 children’s disco will start at 5 until 6. Drop off and pick up will be from your child’s classroom. Tickets are £2 and you can pay this before or on the door.
Children are welcome to come to school in bright, neon clothes for the day, regardless if they are going to the disco or not.
In the Spring and Summer term, we would like to hold a ‘Matilda’ drama club. This will be open to all of Key Stage Two (Years 3, 4, 5 & 6) and held after school on a Thursday. The club will consist of a range of musical theatre skills such as; singing, dancing and acting, with the end goal of putting together a production of Matilda the musical.
If your child is interested in a place in this club, please return the letter given out by your class teacher before Friday 10th October.
