Year 5 litter picking- tomorrow afternoon

Just a reminder that Year 5 children will be engaging in acts of service tomorrow in our community and they will be joining local council workers to litter pick around Intake. This it to promote the importance of looking after our community.

Children will need a coat. If you havenā€™t given your permission slip to your class teacher already, please ensure you do tomorrow.

Easter donations to raise funds for Year 6 leavers

We are asking for donations for an Easter raffle to raise funds for Year 6 leavers events. We would be so grateful for any sweet/chocolate donations including Easter eggs. If you could kindly pass on any donations to (myself) Miss Blackham in 6B.

Year 6’s will start to sell raffle tickets for 50p a strip after half-term.

Thank you so much for your support!

Our spring booster prize for Year 6!

We are so proud of those children who are attending boosters each morning. We wanted to share our latest prize for those children who attend 95% or more of booster sessions with a McDonalds breakfast on the last day of this term.

Boosters run from 8:20 each morning and consist of independent maths on a Monday, teacher led SPaG on a Tuesday, teacher led reading on a Wednesday and small focus group maths on a Thursday. It would be amazing to see ALL year 6 pupils attending these sessions.

Yaya came to visit

Thank you to Mekaal’s mummy for bringing her baby to visit us today. We have started our new expedition “See how things grow.” We started off today learning about what babies need and how they grow. Baby Yaya has milk but he doesn’t have food. He needs lots of cuddles and people to love him. Ask the children what they have learnt. They were very good at thinking of ideas.

First day back in 3B

Happy New Year! 3B have had an amazing start to first week back.

Shoutout to those children who made a special effort to dress up as a robot for the occasion. We spent the morning in our crews completing some activities to hook the children into the learning for our new expedition this term. These activities included investigating the internal organs, skeleton and muscles using AI and interactive games; classifying robots; making electronic circuits and cutting and sticking robots and skeletons.

Children were given a word at the end of each workshop to workout our new guiding question: The power of life: What makes us human?

As reward for solving the puzzle and in preparation for Fridayā€™s learning, we spent the afternoon watching the film Robots.

The children are all hooked in and excited to learn more.
