John-Henry the artist!

John-Henry has shown so much resilience in art this morning. He has created a stunning first draft of a planet from our solar system. He worked really hard on mastering the techniques with water colours and he accepted his critique ready to make draft two even better! I canā€™t wait to see it! 10 crew coins-well done!

Stargazing

Unfortunately, we have to postpone our stargazing session this evening. The weather is very much against us and come the end of the school day, rain and storms have been forecast. We were hoping it would blow over and clear up but unfortunately this doesnā€™t seem to be the case.

We will keep in contact via the school blog and emails and hope to have this event rearranged towards the back end of next week.

Kind regards

Mrs Haycock and Mrs Chapman

Year 5 Harry Potter trip- Friday 24th September

Please find further information and details here:

Dear Parents, 

We are so excited about our first Expedition trip as year 5 on Friday 24th September to HARRY POTTER STUDIO TOUR (LONDON) 

We would just like to remind you of the following:

The coaches will leave school at 7.30am ā€“ please arrive at your classroom by 7am.

The coaches will return to school at approximately 7:30pm (we will keep you informed via text).

Please take into account the length of the day we will be out when packing lunches. Children will requireĀ extra foodĀ in their packed lunch ā€“ eg. Cereal bar in the morning, normal packed lunch and a snack/tea prior to leaving the studio plus at least 3 drinks.Ā  Pupils entitled to Free School Meals will be provided with a packed lunch from school but additional snacks will need to be provided from home.

Children need to wear their school jumper/cardigan and top, jogging bottoms / leggings and comfortable footwear.

Children MUST NOT bring a mobile phone on the visit but they are welcome to bring a camera (they will need to look after it themselves).  They may also bring a book or something to do on the coach that isnā€™t electronic.

Finally, if your child suffers from travel sickness, please ensure that they take their tablet before arriving at school and then bring one in a named envelope for the return journey and givethis to their class teacher. Parents will also be required to sign for this at the office too.

Yours sincerely

Miss Blackham

Reading rivers!

In crew Topliss today we created our own reading rivers. We discussed just how much we read on a daily basis without even realising! We are always reading! When we saw just how much we had written down, we couldnā€™t believe it! We then made pledges to improve our accelerated reader scores to help us become even better at reading! I canā€™t wait to check in with your pledges later this week Crew Topliss!
