To keep our Plover pantry running, we need parents and carers to attend to support us. The Plover pantry is accessible for all of our parents and carers. Our Plover pantry runs every Wednesday from 2:30pm. We really hope to see you there!

We have been working on the character trait compassion. Yesterday, we held our colour run and raised money for the RSPCA (our whole school charity) and for school funds. We are determined to support our school and wider community this year.
Thank you all for your support with the colour run, we hope your children enjoyed it!

Today’s character trait was all about compassion. We unpicked what this meant and then spent time using stories and discussions to work out what it might look like in the things that we do and say. We used our ideas to create our own, unique bingo card with lots of different ideas on it. We now have the challenge of doing all of the ideas so that we can tick them off and get bingo! I wonder how long it will take?
In the afternoon, we looked at the artist Keith Haring and used his work to create a compassion-themed piece of pop art. We had to show courage when we were cutting out some of the fiddly shapes and we did really well.
We ended the day with the colour run. Before it started, we were very lucky to have Mr Sprakes give us a speech and we were able to celebarate the amazing acts of compassion that our own Harris has been doing out of school during the summer. He has rasied almost ÂŁ1000 for charity and received a special prize. We then had a brilliant time getting messy and being active but it can be easy to forget that this was our way to raise money so that we can donate some of it to the RSPCA. Giving to others is the best form of compassion! Great work 2P!

Today’s character trait has been ‘compassion’.
As part of the day, we have shown compassion to our ‘Baby Eggs’, who needed clothing, shelter and care – we had great fun using our imagination to create them.
Then it was the colour run in aid of our school and chosen charity the RSPCA (that we learnt about yesterday). Despite a few early drops of rain, we had great fun turning ourselves into colourful rainbows!!

Yesterday’s character trait that we learnt about was courage. We discussed how we need courage when we are challenged with things that can make us feel uncomfortable. We learnt this by dancing in the cheerleading style. This was very challenging for some of us (including me!) but we all showed bravery and courage and gave it a good go. We now need to practise our routine a few more times before we perform it in front of the rest of the Key Stage. The final act of courage!

Today our new crew took part in a fun and challenging team-building activity designed to get everyone working together. The task sounded simple: build the tallest tower you can… using only your shoes!
At first, there were puzzled faces and lots of laughter. How could we possibly turn our shoes into a tower? But with some creative thinking, clever balancing, and plenty of cooperation, we began stacking, leaning, and problem-solving their way to success.
It wasn’t just about the tallest tower—it was about communication, and teamwork. The children quickly learned that listening to each other’s ideas was the key to keeping the tower standing. Others discovered that patience and persistence were just as important as speed.
Well done to everyone for showing such fantastic collaboration and creativity—our crew is off to a brilliant start!

Yesterday, we kick started our first week back and looked at the character trait ‘compassion’. We looked at what it means to be compassionate and show compassion and then we left school to engage in acts of service with our local care home. Some of our children played board games with the residents and they all had so much fun. The children learnt a lot from the residents such as how to play a range of card games and how to play dominoes. We are so proud of the relationships we are building with this care home and we hope to build on this throughout the year.
In a world where you can be anything, always be kind.
