To build on our crew character traits, we undertook some team building and problem solving activities this afternoon as we got to know our phase crews better. Well done for working hard to solve the various tasks and challenges! We have more in store tomorrow!

Spreading kindness by making birthday cards for all!
Our HoWLs focus in our first week back is the ‘be kind’ strand. We have discussed lots of ways to show and spread kindness to our whole Plover crew. We started our first activity by creating birthday cards for all staff and our entire year group. When it is somebody’s birthday, they can take a card from the birthday box and feel special whilst reading all of the lovely messages written by our Year 6 crew.
We can’t wait to spread kindness throughout the year!

Our student Ambassadors led a well-being afternoon last week!
Last week, as part of mental health well-being week, our student Ambassadors led a well-being session. They wanted to encourage their friends to spend time outdoors and exercise which is an amazing tool to support well-being. They organised a lovely event and I am so proud of them!
Thank you boys!

Throwing, catching and bowling in 5L
Coding abstract art in 5L
5L had so much fun this morning learning how to create art through coding in their computing lesson. I was so impressed with how they created some complex algorithms to create a repeating colourful pattern. The children were really engaged and seemed to enjoy how they could be creative in different ways. I’m so looking forward to seeing what they can do next week!

A reminder of Year 5’s dress up day- tomorrow!
On Monday 15th April Year 5 will kick start their summer expedition ‘how does a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ by immersing into their history case studies and becoming Egyptians for the day. We would love children to come dressed as Egyptians. We are encouraging parents to make use of any items they already have to avoid purchasing anything new. We hope the ideas above will help. If you are struggling for ideas, please see your child’s class teacher.
