NSPCC ‘The Kindness Challenge’

Next week, we will be taking part in a week full of activities linking to Kindness. This is part of the NSPCC fundraising and awareness week.

We will be taking part in lots of fun activities during Crew each day and there will be lots of opportunities for children to complete Kindness Challenges at home too.

Next Friday, to raise money for the NSPCC, we will be holding a Non-Uniform Day for donations of £1.

Class 7 – National Poetry Day

Today is National Poetry Day and in Class 7 we have been finding lots of different poems online to listen to. We also explored the poem, My Treasures, during our crew session before having a go at writing some of our own … and finding out just how tricky poetry writing can be!

You can have a look at the poem, My Treasures, below but there are so many wonderful poems out there for you to find and enjoy. Don’t forget to keep having a go at writing your own poems at home and bring them in for us all to hear at school.

Class 7 – Weekly Round Up

It’s been a super busy week for Class 7 this week and we’ve been learning lots more about the Great Fire of London as well as having a go at some fabulous diary writing – just like Samuel Pepys! In maths, we have been learning about place value and practising partitioning 2digit numbers in different ways.

Today in crew, we were thinking about families and how important our families are for all of us – no matter how different they might be. Children spent some time drawing the special people in their lives and talking about them with each other and it was very clear we are all so lucky with the people we have around us.

Don’t forget that there are teacher training days both tomorrow and Monday, so please enjoy your lovely long weekend and Miss Hilton will see you all again on Tuesday. Remember to bring in any home learning to share with us and to keep up your reading and Times Tables Rockstar practice!

Enjoy! Mrs Dutton x
