A big thank you

28th February 2024Mrs Price

Thank you to all those who have supported our fundraising this term. We have raised just over £700. We are going to buy books to create book baskets for places in the community, books for the children’s wards in the hospital and Kiddiewinks. We are also going to add to our reading for pleasure books that the children take home and all our EYFS children will have their own book.

If you know of a venue in the local area that would like a basket of books for children to read/share at the venue please let us know.

Summer Expedition

27th February 2024Amy Wood-Samways

After the Easter holidays our expedition will be based around the guiding question “what happens when the sea meets the shore?” As part of this we will be talking about children’s experiences of visiting the seaside. If you are out and about anywhere over the Easter holidays, or have any old holiday photos of your child, we would appreciate it if you could share these with your class teacher. These can be shared via Evidence Me or a printed copy, so that they can use these to support their learning.

Thank you, EYFS team

The Plover Palace Ball

23rd February 2024Mrs Price

Glitter, a red carpet, a castle, dancing and lots of fun! We really did have fun this afternoon for our family learning. We welcomed our families to the Plover Palace Ball. Thank you to all those who supported either by attending or by sending their children in some amazing clothes. It was great to see some adults dressed up too.

Here are some photos of the afternoon celebrations.

World Book Day 2024

22nd February 2024Mrs Graves

We are looking forward to celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 7th March.

It would be lovely to see the children dressed up as their favourite book character, but please don’t feel like you have to rush out and buy a costume!

£1 Book Vouchers will be given to children on the day which can be spent in most supermarkets and book shops, but we do also have a Book Fayre coming into school the following week, and children can put their voucher towards the cost of a book at that event – more details to follow soon.

More information can be found on https://www.worldbookday.com

The Haka in 3F

21st February 2024Lucy Wood

3F have had so much fun this morning in PE. Their new unit is Dance and today they learnt all about the Haka and where it originated from. They then learnt the steps to the Haka, along with practicing their intimidating faces and hand gestures.

Miss Wood

We are so proud of our dancing superstar!

20th February 2024Mrs Haycock

Well done to this incredibly talented young lady. What a half term you had! Having moved up a section to dance against the ‘Juniors’, Mia was one of the youngest of roughly 20 children who competed against each other all week in solo routines. She came home with 12 individual medals: 2 gold medals; 5 silver; 3 bronze; and 2, 4th place medals – as well as others for group routines! See, I told you she was talented! I can’t wait to come and watch you and your friends perform again.

Look out London’s West End…Mia is gonna take you by storm one day!

‘Motivate Me’ Crew Challenges

20th February 2024Mrs Haycock

In our crews, we have had to think really carefully about how we can achieve a team aim. It was much harder than we first thought it would be to lower the counting stick to the ground without anyone’s fingers becoming detached from the stick. It was amazing how much better we did when we actually communicated with each other!

Well done teams.

Dance in Y4!

20th February 2024Lucy Wood

The children are focusing on Dance this half term and have had such a great time practicing the Haka. They learned a bit about its history and where it originated from. Then they put on their most intimidating faces to learn the first few steps.
