Today the children enjoyed collaging a giant sock and making some individual ones to raise awareness for âanti bullying weekâ. We have talked a lot today about what being kind looks and sounds like.
Today we talked about the importance of Remembrance Day and painted poppies to help us remember. ♥️
Today we learnt about Diwali, the Hindu celebration of light. The children had a wonderful time dancing to Bollywood music with coloured scarves, creating Rangoli patterns in play-dough and with pencils and exploring powder paint to mark make their own patterns. What a beautiful day!
Anti-Bullying Week 2023 will take place from Monday 13th – Friday 17th November. The theme is Make A Noise About Bullying.
This week, your crew councillor will be leading a crew session where you can make some noise. What can you do to make a noise? Look out for our school video!
On Friday 17th November, we will be supporting Children in Need with a non-uniform day for a suggested donation of ÂŁ1. Crew Council have voted to ‘wear something that makes you smile.’
You could wear your favourite jumper, dress up as your favourite character or just come in your pyjamas.
We will also be having a bake sale where you can buy a bun for 50p. If you would like to donate any buns, please bring them to the office.
As part of our commitment to make maths exciting and high profile in our school, we are taking part in a friendly competition involving schools in England. The competition runs from 07:30 GMT Tuesday 14th November 2023 to 19:30 GMT Thursday 16th November 2023. It’s all done online via play.ttrockstars.com.
Children can play in any game mode with every correct answer to a multiplication or division question, earning themselves, their class and the school a point. The Times Tables Rock Stars platform will calculate the class average (the number of correct answers per pupil in the class who play during the competition hours, subject to a daily 60-minute limit (see below). Winning classes in the school and in the competition as a whole will be the ones with the highest average.
To support player wellbeing, there is a daily time limit of 60-minutes per player. In other words, each player can earn competition points for up to 60-minutes between 07:30 GMT and 19:30 GMT on 07:30 GMT Tuesday 14th November 2023 to 19:30 GMT Thursday 16th November 2023. Once the player goes beyond 60-minutes of play on that day, they will still earn coins but will no longer earn points towards the competition.
Which Crew will be victorious? Who will rock their way to glory? Only time will tell…….
This afternoon we were very lucky to be joined by Mr Kershaw. He continued our learning on bonfire safety by setting up a campfire and showing the children how to toast marshmallows safely. The children were fantastic and showed how much they had learnt this week in Nursery. What a fabulous friday afternoon treat!
Today we have talked about keeping ourselves safe on Bonfire Night. The children shared some fantastic ideas about how they will keep safe.
âWear gloves and donât touch the fireworksâ
âStay with Mummy and Daddyâ
âKeep my doggy insideâ
âStand back far away from the bonfire and fireworksâ
We then made bonfire pictures and used chalk outside to create fireworks.
