Stem Week

As part of our Stem Week Activities we have been learning how to join a range of materials in lots of different ways ( string, tape etc) and have been creating our own traps in the Forest to catch the Gruffalo. We used all of our skills from our Design and Technology sessions to design them . It was so lovely to see so many different and original ideas.

Art Club 🎨

Today was our last art club session.
Today’s club was inspired by a story! Julia Donaldson’s ‘Paper Dolls’ tells the story of a little girl who makes her own paper dolls, each with their own name and unique features, and the adventures that they have together. After we listened to the story, we made our own paper dolls. Fantastic cutting from all, as well as some beautiful designs. What adventures have your paper dolls had at home?

Fun in the sun

Dear Parents/Carers,

We are so lucky to have a continuation of the lovely, sunny weather this week.

Please ensure you apply sun lotion to your child before they come into school (School staff are not allowed to apply sun lotion) and make sure they have a named water bottle to keep hydrated.

It is also a good idea to send them in with a hat (again please put a name label in it!).

We have opened up some classrooms to allow children the option to come into school at lunchtime should they get too hot.

We never complain about the sun but do understand that rising temperatures can come with warnings that we have to abide by.

Please help us, to help your children feel comfortable in school this week.

Kind regards,

Miss Cook

ASC Homework offer

Dear Parents/Carers of children who attend After School Club,

We are delighted to be able to offer wrap-a-round care at our school, so that working parents can have the flexibility they need.

We want to let you know that during every slot for After School Club, there will be opportunity for the children to complete homework including spellings, reading and topic linked activities.

It maybe that you would rather that homework was completed at home with you and of course that is fine. We will not be forcing children to do their homework but will be asking them each day if they would like to have time to get it done.

Clearly the team will not be able to carry out larger pieces of homework with them e.g. making a castle, but they will be able to support with daily homework.

Please talk to your children about this option, as it will be up to them and we will not force them.

Kind regards,

Miss Cook
