We couldn’t resist a little adventure into the snow this morning! The children had snow much fun playing with their friends, tasting the snow, and even attempting a few snow angels—despite our gentle reminder that there really wasn’t quite enough snow for that yet.
It was a wonderfully joyful start to the day. And just like that—blink—and the snow was gone. But we made the most of every moment while it lasted!
Today we are delighted to showcase the children’s beautiful Poppy artwork. They approached their creations with such care, focus, and pride; choosing colours, exploring different materials, and talking thoughtfully about what their poppies represented.
Each piece is unique, and together they make a stunning display. We are so proud of their creativity and the meaning they put into their work. What a lovely way to honour and remember through art.
This week in our Crew Session, we have been focusing on mindfulness — learning how to slow down, pay attention, and be present in the moment.
To help us explore this idea, we played the Pom Pom Game — a fun and simple activity that encourages deep breathing. As we took slow breaths in and out, we watched the pom poms move gently, helping us to stay focused and relaxed. There were lots of smiles (and a few giggles!) as we learned that being calm and still can also be great fun.
Thank you to everyone who showed support during our show racism the red card day!

In ‘We Care Crew’, we talked about our families. We then drew all the people and pets who live in our house. We then used sticks to make the square for our house and the triangle for our roof. Our crew display board is filling up fast! We noticed that all our pictures weren’t the same and that our families may be different but we are all loved. #love plover #wearecrew
As part of our “INTEGRITY” focus, we also learned a poem. We made a video to share it with you; we hope you like it!
We will be kick-starting the new academic year focusing on character traits. As part of our first week back, we will be looking at the character trait compassion and raising funds for our crew charity of the year – the RSPCA as well raising much needed school funds. Letters will be sent out in the first week back and we require them to be signed in order for your child to participate.
We are kindly asking for donations which will be split between the RSPCA and school funds. These donations can be made every day in the first week back and we ask they are passed on to your child’s class teacher.
Please can your child attend school on the day in either a white or light coloured t-shirt. Whilst we would hope the paint will come out once the clothes have been washed, we ask you only send your child in clothes you do not mind being stained just incase the paint will not wash out.
Thank you for your continued support. Any questions, please see Mr Meade or Miss Blackham.

A big WELL DONE to Henry, Amelia, Ariana, Rishaa, Georgia and Vinnie! They worked so hard to create beautifully presented letters to send around the world as part of our final product.
We took our learning outside last week and embarked on a question word hunt. The children worked in teams to see how many question words they could find in our playground. We enjoyed being out in the sun and working collaboratively with our friends.
We then came into the classroom to turn our words into sentences (and not forgetting a question mark either!) We then all wrote a question sentence based on something we had seen in our book.
