This weeks F2 Pride of Plover winners are George and Hasty. They have both worked very hard in school and have been very kind and helpful.
We are very proud of their learning this week.
Congratulations also to Paisley for being the F1 Pride of Plover winner this week. She has done so much learning at home. It has been amazing.
Well done to all of you.

It has been a great week of learning for so many of our children in year 3 and 4. So many children have been logging on and completing their work, it is great to see.
I have been particularly impressed with the artwork that has been produced during the Thursday afternoon art sessions with Mrs Foster.
They have been learning about the Japanese artwork ‘the Great Wave’ by Hokusai, to link with our expedition theme of Natural Disasters and today’s lesson moved on to using a tsunami as a subject to study using perspective in their drawings.
I am blown away by the quality of the drawing and the care and pride they have put into their work.
Have a flick through our gallery below (swipe left and right) and who knows, one day, some these pupils might be displaying in real art galleries!
Enjoy our art!

Well done again years 5&6 for a fabulous day of online learning. I particularity enjoyed our scavenger hunt online this morning, finding multiples of our 7 times tables! Thank you to parents /siblings for supporting your children to join in with this activity during crew! We will continue to work on improving our times tables as a phase crew target next week!
The following children have really impressed their teachers today and therefore have won the Plover postcard:
-Munzer, for fabulous progress in maths today.
-Ella G, for working hard to achieve her ME in maths.
-George, for always giving 100% and being extremely fast with his times tables this morning!
-Ruby, for being a little ray of sunshine and always striving to achieve her ME’s
-Jenson, for always leading his own learning and challenging himself to be the best version of himself!
Well done you lovely lot. As a celebration of your hard work, tomorrow, during Plover praise time, we will be having a virtual film night between 2-3pm. Children in school are welcome to bring their PJ’s to change into in the afternoon and children at home, of course you can be in your PJ’s too! We hope to see you all there!

I must give a shout out to all of the lovely year 6’s who have been working hard, peer and self critiquing their reading comprehension answers using Jamboard. I am extremely impressed with the effort Harrison and Chriso have put in to not only giving their friends very specific critique but also for acting on the feedback they had been given and editing it in green pen on Jamboard! I am so proud of you both and it has been great to see that other year 6’s are now acting on their feedback using the green pen too! Well done superstars and please keep it up!

During this current Coronavirus Lockdown, the well-being of our children remains very important to us. We understand that children are dealing with the restrictions in different ways, and that some children are finding it hard-going.
If you have concerns, this resource may help, there are a selection of tips:

The resource is available as a document and short video presentation.
Please do speak to your class teacher too, as there may be more support we can offer.
This link will also be in the Parent Support Centre area on the front page of the school website.

The children have been learning about e-safety with the help of Charlie the penguin. They have learnt to ask a grown-up for help if they see or hear something that worries them, scares them or is something that shouldn’t be on the device such as a pop-up.
They then made posters. Here are 2 of the examples.
I particularly liked Charlie’s. He said Tell help to fix it. Don’t touch the pop-up.
Keep safe everyone.

I just wanted to do a ‘shout out’ to all the children in year 3 and 4 who have been logging on and completing work. You really are becoming experts in using classrooms and have make such progress since last Wednesday. Well done -I’m sure you can teach the grown ups a thing or two now.
We have had some lovely practical learning being completed at home and in school to support our Natural Disasters expedition, with the home made volcanoes coming along very nicely. I can’t wait till next week when we start being scientists and completing experiments with them. Advanced notice for next week, you will need some vinegar, bicarbonate of soda and if possible (but not essential) some red or orange food colouring. If you can’t get hold of that, some Coca Cola and a mint will work too.
We have decided to celebrate learning at 2pm Friday afternoon, by turning Plover Praise time into our very own ‘Plover Virtual Disco’ – so get your party clothes on, do your hair and get ready to boogie!
Check out our wonderful volcanoes – you still have time to make your own ready for our ‘explosive’ experiments next week.
We have been back in school a week. It has been different with some children in school and some at home but it has been a delight to check-in with the children each day. Last week we were artists and we learnt to paint and collage.
EYFS have been learning about old and new this week. We have compared old teddies to new teddies. F2 have practiced reading sentences about old and new. We are all going to the story Peepo and think about what it would have been like to live a long time ago.
We have had some fantastic engagement from the children at home and school. If you are learning at home keep checking in everyday and sharing your learning with us on Evidence Me. We love to see your learning. We are aiming for 100% attendance next week, either through being at school or daily check-in. We can do it!
