Happy Red Nose Day! It is great to see so many of you dressed in red to show your support today. Thank you for all your generous donations. The school council have one last challenge for you! Over the weekend, we wonder how many different red things you can find.
You could have a look around your house or even venture outside on a walk. Count how many different red things you can find to share with your crew on Monday. You could even take some pictures or draw what you can see.
WOW, what a week it has been this week, from all of KS1 staff, a huge thank you for everyones hard word during our assessment week. We have seen some incredible improvements, especially in maths. I think that might be down to the wonderful work done on TTRockstars and Numbots.
Our stewardship shoutouts this week were for children who have been keeping their classrooms neat and tidy and taking ownership of their actions, choosing to tidy up after themselves but also doing it for their peers too. It is lovely to see such kind and helpful children in our phase!
We even had an amazing reading shoutout for Thea this week for getting her Gold reading certificate! What a superstar.
The best attendance this week goes to Crew Rodgers, well done to everyone in Crew Rodgers, who can beat them next week?!
Another HUGE shoutout to our Out Of This World’s this week. We found it so hard to choose this week, as everyone has worked so hard, but big well done to Lauren, Luna, Ethan, Ava, Reid and Ava-Leigh!!
I wonder who will be Out Of This World next week……
I am so proud of crew shaw today. They came back to school after a long weekend off with such fantastic attitudes and really impressed us today, with their first maths assessments! Well done!
Also, a huge shout out to Ezra who got man of the match at football this weekend and Savannah who shared her super swimming certificate! superstars in school and out!
Well done crew…Mrs Shaw x
Today marks the start of British Science Week and we can’t wait to get involved when we get back to school next week. Each crew will take part in a fascinating fingerprint investigation led by the school council. We will also have science club attending the coffee afternoon (Wednesday 15th) to share some of the exciting things we get up to at science club.
In the meantime, there are a few challenges you can get involved in at home and bring into school next week.
For Tuesday – Create a timeline of scientists through history. What are some of the greatest discoveries and who made them?
For Wednesday – Invent like a Victorian. Channel your inner inventor and design something to make life at home easier.
For Thursday – See and Eat Vegetables. Investigate the connection between how vegetables grow and how they end up on your plate.
You could also find your own investigations to try! Send any pictures of you being a scientist to your phase leaders. We can’t wait to see what you get up to!
In maths this afternoon, class 9 were challenged to see how many arithmetic questions they could complete, each sheet was timed for 1 minute each.
It was definitely a week for the boys as Charlie B got 17/18 in magic maths, also Ellis and Charlie W got 8/10 for big maths beat that! Well done boys!
Great efforts from everyone, super proud of you all!
I wonder who will beat they’re score next week!
The Big Battery Hunt is a nationwide battery recycling programme for schools funded by Duracell. Its aim is to increase the number of batteries currently being recycled in the UK. Pupils are challenged to collect as many batteries as they can, encouraging their communities to do the same.
All you need to do is take any unwanted batteries into school and give them to your school councillor. The school council will collect the batteries, keep count of them and recycle them for you. Let’s see how many we can collect this year!
What an absolutely fantastic celebration we had in our community crew this morning. Our out of this world superstars were amazing and everyone supported their achievements! We had shoutouts for fantastic stewardship, superstar readers gaining their bronze and silver certificates, class HOWL point winners and so many TT rockstars and numbots winners! we ended as always with our crew song! So proud of you all

Today class 9 enjoyed completing a variety of world book day activities. They wrote their own stories during creative writing, drew pictures of characters from stories we have read and completed scavenger hunts using our class books. I really enjoyed it, hope the children did too
