There are still some tickets available for the ‘Family Bingo Night’ fundraiser on Thursday 18th May. It would be great if you could join us.
Entrance tickets cost 50p per person – a ticket must be purchased for each person attending the event. Admission is by ticket only.
If you would still like to purchase tickets, please send money in an envelope clearly labelled with your child’s name, class and the number of tickets required. The Year 6 children are working hard to collect and allocate tickets each morning.
Tomorrow during Choir, we are going to film a song linking to King Charles III’s Coronation on Saturday.
It would be great if children could bring something to wear that is red/white or blue or linked to the Coronation for the video please. If you have any Union Jack flags or hats these are welcome too.
Here is the video to the song that we have been learning if you would like to practice at home.
This morning has been wonderful in Nursery with Mr Kershaw. He set up a super camp site for us to enjoy and supported us in being safe around a camp fire to toast our marshmallows.
The children listened beautifully and were very safe. Mrs Burton and I are very proud of you.
This morning, Class 11 worked superbly well together so that they could find and then understand the features of a newspaper report, in preparation for our next set of writing. We looked into headlines, fronted adverbials and how we need to use facts to get the true story out there. We’ll be practising this in the coming days, especially the 5Ws when it comes to writing introductions!
As we approach the end of the academic year, it’s time for our Year 6 students to undertake their SATs. SATs week starts on the 9th of May and finishes on the 12th of May. On these days, your child is welcome to come into school from 8:15 am (Y6 classrooms as normal). We will provide some breakfast options such as cereal bars to ensure they start their day well-fueled and ready to tackle the challenges ahead. It’s essential that they arrive on time to reduce any stress that they might experience from rushing.
We understand that this can be a stressful time for both students and parents, and we want to reassure you that we will be on hand to provide guidance and support throughout the week. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any concerns or questions.
We would also like to let you know that on the afternoon of the 12th of May (Friday), to acknowledge the hard work of our Year 6 students, we will be taking them to Morani’s ice cream parlour as a treat. The school will cover the cost of this treat, so you do not need to send any money.
We believe that it’s important to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our students, and this treat is just one small way of saying well done for their effort and commitment.Â

A huge shout out to Mrs Stone’s phonics group for making so much progress! They are now reading so many more words per minute and flying with their phonics sounds! Well done girls…what superstars! x x
