Year 5 had an awesome day today, starting with an extremely fun and informative workshop. The children were engaged and completely immersed in their learning. After lunch followed some Egyptian dancing and games, along with making healthy fruit kebabs. The Year 5 team were delighted to also receive an email from the ladies who delivered the workshop. This was full of praise for our children and school, bringing a lovely end to a perfect day! Well done Crew Year 5!!!
Following the Year 6 visit to Crucial Crew on Monday, a useful handout about keeping safe around dogs has been shared. Please share and discuss with your children.
This half term, Year 5 will take part in Kixx sessions every Monday PM.
This will replace PE on a Thursday afternoon.
Please can children bring PE kits and appropriate footwear for Kixx starting from next Monday. The sessions will take place outside.
Thank you,
Year 5

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 …
Here are just some of the fabulous characters!

This afternoon, we were very fortunate to have a special visit from a Y5 pupil’s parent who shared with us the history of racism and racist language, and who encouraged us all to think a little more carefully about how the things we say and do can impact on others. Thank you to Martin for sharing an important message with us and for reminding us of the importance of being kind to one another, even if we are different in any kind of way!
