Totally Telford
Telford & Wrekin Council is launching later this month a brand new quality of life campaign called ‘Totally Telford’ which will profile Telford as a great place to live, work, invest and visit.
We are lucky enough to have extracts from our Year 4 Telford advert included in their promotional video.

Mobile phone use on school premises
As a school, we allow children in Year 5 and 6 to bring mobile phones, as this allows parents/children peace of mind linked to safety when they travel to and from school alone. Phones must not be kept in bags during the day and can be handed into the office or the class TA for safekeeping (the children know this rule). Due to safeguarding, from now on, we must ask that phones are turned off as soon children arrive on the premises and are not switched on until they leave the premises at the end of the day. Teachers will be discussing this with children today and we hope that you will support us in this matter at home.

Poetry by heart
Today we practised using actions to help learn a poem off by heart.
Test your child by holding up a hand like a stop sign and saying, “ Hand on the bridge, feel the rythm…”
