The Nursery had their first ‘Book Share’ session after school today.
Children and parents were welcomed in to choose a book to borrow for the week. They took home a book review form too, so they could let their friends know which were their favourites.
The ‘Book Share’ is open for Nursery children and parents until 3.30pm every Thursday.
The Year 5 children loved the trip! They went in the inflatable planetarium, took part in a solar system science workshop and explored the planet path and whispering dishes. The visit has really helped them further understand their Science work on planets this term.
The School Council have begun selling raffle tickets for the Roald Dahl raffle- tickets are selling well!
The school chairpersons – Nathan and Amelia have written their first letter representing the views of children in school. They have written to Mr Pridden asking him about improvements that could be made to the outdoor area in Upper Key Stage 2.
In assembly we talked about our preparations for harvest – we looked at the many donations of food that had already arrived into school before our visit on Thursday from the Wood-street Mission. We thought about why harvest happened in Autumn and also listened to the piece of music ‘All Things Bright and Beautiful’.
The new school council have planned their first fundraising event.
The councillors have decided they would like to further develop our outdoor libraries and wish to raise some funds to buy new books.
They will be selling raffle tickets between the 10th and 17th of October – look out for the letter or pop into the School Office: Only £1 for 5 tickets! You can download the order form here:
