Year 4 parents / carers, please read the information regarding the Multiplication Tables Check which the children will sit in June.
We are working really hard on times tables in school and will continue to do so throughout in the run up to the MTC.
You can help at home by encouraging your child to use their TTRockstars account regularly. The ‘Soundcheck’ mode is particularly useful to support them with their practice as this is similar to the official MTC layout.
Years 1, 2, 3 and 4 will be holding an art gallery in school on Friday 22nd March. We will have their art work ready to share with you on display in frames. This is a fantastic experience for the children to see and share their art work in this kind of setting.
Key stage 1
Key stage 1 will have their art work set up in their classrooms and also have time slots to have a workshop with reptile rendezvous and their animal guests.
The time slots are as follows:
You are welcome to come and celebrate the children’s work with them at any time between 4 and 5 but if you are around for your child’s class time slot with reptile rendezvous, then this would be fantastic too!
Year 3 and 4
Year 3 and 4 will have their art work in the hall set up in an exhibition ready for you to view anytime between 4 and 5pm. There is also the opportunity to use the green screen and have photos taken with polar bear backgrounds.
Every visitor
There will be canapes made by Michael, in the hall for all guests to enjoy. We really hope to see as many parents and children as possible at our first ever Green Top Art Exhibition. The children’s art work will be available to buy on the night (as well as any pre-orders that have been made) at a cost of £10. Thank you as always for your support with the children and their education…they have all worked extremely hard to produce good quality art work and can’t wait to share it with you!
I can’t believe the amount of wonderful character spoons we had fetched into school as part of our World Book Day competition! The creativity and effort that has gone into each and every one is amazing!
The Learning Council judged the spoons this morning but it was such a hard choice that we have ended up with 8 winners instead of 4!
Watch this space to see the winning spoons tomorrow …
We have started our new maths unit today which is on length and height. The children did the learning in their books and then had a chance to measure different objects around the classroom. We needed a few reminders to start from 0 and line the ruler up straight but I was really impressed with the skills they already have. Well done class 8!
To celebrate Red Nose Day, Class 15 have enjoyed designing their own red noses and eating lots of buns (of course)! Thank you to everyone who has supported our charitable endeavour today – every little bit really does help 🙂
Wow! What a massive well done to the girls who participated in the football tournament over at XP as part of our Trust competitions. We did such a great job that we scored plenty of goals, didn’t concede and ended up winning the tournament overall.
The best thing was seeing the enjoyment of girls who have played together and those making their way into such a great game. Keep your eyes posted for more photos of the tournament from Mr Ambler!
A massive well done to the girls for being such super stars and to the adults for taking you to the tournament! Rest up and have a great weekend 🙂
In Year 6 we don’t let a busy morning of 2 maths SATs papers and an afternoon of writing stop us – we power on and show exceptional HOWLs at learning club too. Mrs Rafferty and I were blown away with the hard work and dedication of the group of children that stayed after school yesterday to practice their maths reasoning skills ready for this morning’s final maths assessment. Well done guys – you are awesome!
Can you believe it’s less than 8 school weeks until our London residential?
Mr Ambler, Mrs Jackson and I would like to invite parents of those children who are attending this year’s visit to join us on Monday 22nd April from 4:30. This meeting will be to inform you of our finalised itinerary, kit list and to ask any questions you might have. The meeting will be held in the school hall, please access via the Ash Tree Road entrance.
There is no requirement to bring your child to the meeting. If you are unable to attend, please contact [email protected] and the slides can be shared via email to you.
