The School Council did a wonderful job this morning selling red noses to all of the children in the school. We can’t wait to see how much money we’ve raised for such a good cause! Well done School Council, I’m so proud of you!
With Christ at our side to guide us,
we shine in all that we do.

Reception had some very exciting visitors this morning! Mr and Mrs Foord very kindly brought their 8 chicks into school; the children absolutely loved holding and stroking them. The visit from the chicks was extra special for the children as we are learning all about Easter and signs of new life in Spring.

As part of our ‘Minibeast’ topic we have been learning all about worms! Mrs Tutty very kindly provided lots of worms and compost so that we could build our very own wormery. The children helped to create layers of compost and sand and then picked up the worms and placed them very gently into the wormery.

To start off our minibeast topic, reception have had some very exciting visitors… Guy from Bugs ‘n’ Stuff came into our class and brought with him some MEGA-BEASTS for the children to look at, hear facts about and even touch and hold! We had the chance to touch a snake, a skink, a tarantula, a stick insect, a cockroach and a millipede. We even got to look very closely at a scorpion and some desert beetles. The children (and adults) were so brave and thoroughly enjoyed the workshop!

To celebrate the end of our ‘Around the World’ topic we had our very own Brazilian Carnival! The children designed and made head-dresses, streamers and decorations and enjoyed dancing to samba music in their colourful clothes. They even got the chance to play on some samba drums. It was a fantastic afternoon enjoyed by all!

As part of ‘Safer Internet Day’ the children have been learning about how to use the Internet safely in a fun way with Buddy the Dog’s Internet Safety Story. The story specifically focuses on the safe use of tablets and smartphones. In the story, Ben is given a new tablet and throughout he asks questions to Buddy the dog about how to use his tablet safely. Asking these questions to your children will help to initiate discussions about key online safety issues, such as talking to strangers online. The story also contains a catchy song to help to reinforce key Internet safety messages!

The children have had a fabulous day raising money for Children in Need. We wore Pudsey ears to school and took part in the Annual Duck Race. I’m thrilled to say that we have raised a whopping £205.00 so far! Well done to all of the children – your kind donations will make a huge difference to children’s lives around the UK.
