Just to confirm, we will be holding our Year 3 and 4 Christmas Celebration and Celebration of Learning on 16th December at 2pm at St Aidan’s Church, Wheatley Hills (not Friday 5th December).
Please book tickets via the letter that has been sent home this week.
Apologies for any confusion,
Mrs Graves
If you would like to support our crew charity (the RSPCA) this Christmas then please take a tag from our tree. On the reverse side? There will be a single item such as a dog toy, ball, blanket etc. If you could kindly purchase the item and return it to Plover before the 16th December, myself and a few pupils will go to the RSPCA to deliver the donations.
Thank you so much for your support.

After the huge success of our last Spelling Bee, we’re excited to announce that the next competition for Year 5 and Year 6 is officially on the horizon! The enthusiasm, hard work, and confidence shown by our pupils last time were truly inspiring and we can’t wait to see what they achieve next.
This year’s Spelling Bee will take place in February, giving everyone plenty of time to prepare. To help students build their skills and confidence, new spelling lists will be added each week in the lead-up to the event. We encourage pupils to practise regularly, challenge themselves, and perhaps even involve family members at home for some fun spelling sessions.
Whether your child is a seasoned speller or new to competitions, this is a fantastic opportunity to grow, learn, and shine. We look forward to another exciting, buzzy event filled with determination, teamwork, and plenty of impressive spelling!
Stay tuned for weekly updates – and let the training begin!

Children in 2L have been having great fun learning to ride balance bikes with Bikeability. The sessions have helped them build confidence, coordination, and control as they worked on gliding, steering, and stopping safely.Â
The children have loved the challenge, and it’s been wonderful to see their skills grow each week as they become more independent on two wheels.
The Bikeability instructor will be returning in February to work with the children in 2P.
Exploring shadows has been so much fun this afternoon. We have used light ray torches and opaque objects to solve the following problem: I like to have a long shadow behind me when I am performing on stage. Where do I need to ask my technical lighting team to place my spot lights to make sure my shadow is just how it like it?
I’m not sure who was more excited about the arrival of our new equipment from the Ogden Trust team, the kids or me!
Special shout out to Joe, Zuzanna and Pheobe who realised that it was darker under the tables. They decided to carry out their investigation on the floor and under a table. This meant that they had blocked as much natural light from outside as they possibly could, meaning their torch light and shadows created were more easily seen.
