80:80:80 – Plover are Getting Active with Ray Matthews

18th June 2021Joshua Meade

Last Friday in KS1, and this morning in KS2, we had the inspirational and extraordinary Ray Matthews – a true role model!

Ray is an avid sportsman and a national icon, due to the astonishing achievements he has accomplished and vast amount of fundraisers he has done during his 79 years.

In a few weeks Ray turns 80, and 80 schools, will be completing 80 miles to raise money for Rays chosen charity Age UK! https://www.peoplesfundraising.com/donation/rays808080birthdaychallenge

As a school we see the importance of physical activity and exercise, and therefore from Monday we will be making a stand as a whole school crew, to complete the daily mile every single day – all children and all staff!

Check out the the truly astonishing video of Ray below!

Work hard – Challenge yourself – Get active – Feel great!

This morning in “We Care Wednesday Crew’ Mrs Cresswell kindly shared some of her expertise and made our children in KS1 aware of what being deaf or hearing impaired is like and how we cca support them.

Here is a link the children enjoyed watching to learn more about the deaf and hearing impaired.

Good Morning Everyone 😁

We hope you’re enjoying the glorious weather!

With the nice, sunny weather we continue to have. Can all children in KS1 make sure they have sun cream applied, a sun cap and a water bottle!

PE is today, so can all children have their PE kits too (t-shirt, shorts, trainers)

Thank you

F(ru)it to burst!

15th June 2021Mr Pickering

Today we have really enjoyed exploring different fruits and learning why they form a really important part of a healthy, balanced diet. For some of us, it was the first time we had tried fruit such as mango, kiwi and pomegranate. It was quite a discovery for some children to realise that they are delicious! Expect some specific requests on your shopping lists this week! We then turned our fruit into a simple, mainly healthy, fruit pizza. The children chose their own yoghurt and toppings and then tried to eat them without spilling any. Not easy! We then enjoyed eating all of the remaining fruit until we were full.

Shout out to Patryk, Kodish, Syler-Rose, Sheyan and Sumit for winning their Million Minutes reading certificates! Celebrated by all KS1. 👏🏽📚

We had a special guest in assembly this morning. And I truly mean a world wide inspiration – Ray Matthews.

All KS1 were immersed and amazed by the astonishing achievements 79 year old sports enthusiast Ray has and is still accomplishing!

Ray will be back visiting KS2 next Friday, to launch the daily mile fundraiser which Plover are participating in. 80 schools, running 80miles for Rays 80th birthday!

In Plover Praise this afternoon the KS1 Crew showed their skipping skills to promote and launch being active! Well done Miss Millington who did the most skips 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Enjoy your weekend KS1 children, parents and staff… stay safe, get active and have lots of fun in the sun!
