Y3/4 – VE Day Assembly by the Royal British Legion

Last Thursday, in preparation for the celebration of VE Day tomorrow, we enjoyed a special assembly by the Royal British Legion. We enjoyed hearing stories from the original VE Day – 80 years ago! and, we reflected on the differences in childhood between then and now.

Don’t forget that tomorrow marks 80 years since WW2 ended and the very first VE Day was celebrated. To join in the celebrations, children are welcome to come to school in red, white and blue outfits to represent the Union Jack flag and to remember this historical day.

Year 3 – Cricket in the sun!

Our PE session today was a hot one! The children were learning and practising their fielding skills ready for our Summer term of cricket.

Please remember to send your child with a suitable PE kit and trainers every Monday, ready for our PE session. As we head into the warmer months, it would be good for them to have access to sunscreen, sunglasses, hats and a water bottle as we will be trying to take our PE sessions outdoors as much as possible. Thank you.

Y3/4 – Dog Safety Assembly with the Blue Cross Trust

On Wednesday, we were fortunate enough to be visited by the Blue Cross Trust who delivered a really important assembly all about how to stay safe around dogs – big and small! Children learnt how to read a dog’s body language as well as the right and wrong ways to act around dogs to keep themselves, the dog and others safe. Why not ask your child if they can remember some of the warning signs that a dog might be unsafe for them to approach or to pet?
