Crew Spetch – Bikeability Group 1
This week, the first group from our crew have enjoyed completing Bikeability and have all successfully completed the course. It was amazing to watch all of their confidence grow over the two days and see them confidently and safely riding their bikes through Thorne. I’m so proud of you all – lots to smile about!
Year 5 – Weekly Spellings – ‘Ough’
This week we have been focussing on words with the spelling string ‘ough’.
Can you recall some of the words we have learnt?
Year 1: Phonics Family Learning
We would like to invite parents of Year 1 children to join our Phonics and Shared Reading lessons for a day. This will be a live lesson with a teacher delivering the normal daily lesson to a group of children. You are invited to observe the lesson and to partner up with your child so they can show you the skills they are learning. As this is a live lesson we are unfortunately unable to allow any younger siblings into the classrooms for these sessions.
This session will be useful for parents/carers to see how children learn phonics in school and how they learn to read and write. This will help parents understand how they can support children at home with their school reading books.
As we have 4 phonics groups these sessions will need to take place over two days:
Tuesday 12th November – Miss Schon and Miss Rodgers phonics groups
Wednesday 13th November – Miss Cooper and Mrs Clay’s phonics groups
Your child will bring a letter home tomorrow highlighting which day you are able to attend.
The session will run from 9am-10am. Tea and coffee will be available in the school hall after 8:30am for parents to wait for the sessions to begin. Miss Schon and Miss Rodgers will also be available at 10am after the sessions have finished if you have any further questions or concerns.
We kindly ask that you arrive to the lesson promptly as late comers will impact on the children’s learning.
We hope you can make it!
Miss Schon and Miss Rodgers

On Monday, we enjoyed investigation friction and the affects different surface areas have on the speed of a car and how far the car travels. The children followed the method and set up the experiment themselves. I can’t wait to see your final science reports! #OgdenTrust
