Well done to the children of Year 3 and 4 who managed to complete the walk for Polar Bears last week. I’m please to say that most crews walked further than the planned 20 miles per crew.
The children will now be collecting their sponsorship money and should have their completed sheets with them. If possible, please could we have all sponsorship money in for Friday 4th March please.
4BW have had great fun in our music lesson today. Working collaboratively, they read and created different sequences of musical notes to perform with variety of musical instruments. Their enthusiasm was lovely to see and hear!
Ahead of World Book Day, which is held on Thursday 3rd March, we would like to invite all children to make a book character from a toilet roll tube (or something of an equivalent size that you have at home). You can bring them into your class on World Book Day and one child from each phase will win a special prize! Below are some photos that might give you some inspiration but please let your imaginations run wild! We can’t wait to see your creations! #LovePlover
International Polar Bear Day is coming soon, February 27th! the charity ‘Polar Bears International’ created the day to coincide with the time when polar bear moms and cubs are snug in their snow dens. As part of their celebration, they are focusing on the need to protect denning families across the Arctic.
We are doing our bit in school by completing a sponsored walk of 20 miles per crew over the course of this week, to replicate how far a polar bear might travel in a day.
In the lead up to the day, here are the live events and special outreach planned by the charity for anyone to join, starting a few days beforehand and ending on the day itself. Bring your curiosity and tune in to learn about mums and cubs, the threats they face, and how you can help ensure their future.
The school has no control of the content of this day as it is an international event, so we advise you to look into any events beforehand to ensure suitability for your children.
A huge well done to Isabella for keeping herself super busy during the half term break and returning with this brilliant home learning! Not only did she create this igloo and artwork but she also completed some maths home learning too! Super effort Isabella!
Year 4 had so much fun creating their song lyrics with our XP trust expert, Geoff, this morning. Hearing the whole phase sing their verses together was beautiful. We are now one step closer to producing our final product and I can’t wait to hear what the final version of the song will sound like!
