NSPCC Speak Out Stay Safe

We will be participating in the NSPCC’s Speak Out Stay Safe programme during the week starting 17th March. This important initiative aims to educate children about the different forms of abuse, how to recognise the signs, and the importance of speaking out to stay safe. The programme includes engaging virtual assemblies and interactive classroom activities designed to empower children with the knowledge and confidence to seek help if needed. We believe this programme will greatly benefit our students and support our school’s safeguarding efforts. Please see the attached letter for more information.

Y1 – 6 Saltmine Theatre – Blast Off

Last week your child watched Saltmine Theatre Company’s performance called Blast Off which explored how we can safely use the internet. Blast Off uses the analogy of space to represent the internet and follows the story of Imogen, a young girl who is old enough to journey into “space” on her own. To help protect them, pupils learned the importance of following the Space Code.

 It is important that children understand how valuable the internet is as a resource without underestimating how dangerous it can be when not used safely.

As a parent or guardian, you have such an important role to play in helping your child navigate their experience of the online world. Thank you for partnering with your school and Saltmine Theatre Company in keeping your children safe online!

Stay & Share Session – Wednesday 5th February

On Wednesday 5th February, we will be hosting our first ‘Stay and Share’ session at 2:30pm.
This is an exciting opportunity for the children to share their learning with you so far this year. Due to space constraints, we are only able to accommodate one parent/grandparent per child.
If you have more than one child in school you will have the opportunity to visit their classroom during the session, so please book a place for each child.
Attendance must be confirmed through ParentPay so staff are aware of expected numbers on the day. Further details will be shared closer to the time.
We look forward to seeing you soon.

Fruit & Vegetable tasting session – Rec, Y1 and Y2

On Tuesday 25th and Wednesday 26th February, our Reception, Y1 and Y2 children will be taking part in a 5 a day session which is being run by a team from the Schools Health and Wellbeing programme.

During this session, the children will have the opportunity to taste some fruit and vegetables such as fresh pears.

We already have historic permission from parents on our system, so we know who has permission and who hasn’t, but if you do not want your child to sample the food, please let your teacher know by Monday 3rd February.

The fruits and vegetables selected will be suitable for all children as we have double checked our list of children with allergens in those year groups.

Many thanks

Y1 & Y2 Nativity – this Friday

We cannot wait for parents and family to see our Y1/2 Nativity this Friday. We kindly ask that if you have a pushchair, or a young child, that you sit towards the back of the hall or at the side as this would make it easier for you should you need to pop out if they become unsettled.

 

Thank you
