Next week Maths morning

Next Wednesday 3rd May, we will be running a maths morning for parents and carers.

It will 9.15 - 10.15 in the infant hall.

We will start with a short presentation at 9.15 about the end of year expectations for maths. 

After this we will split you into two groups; one will go into classrooms where all the learning choices will be maths based and the other group will do a maths activity in the hall. This will be for about 15 minutes each and then the groups will swap. We will then bring everyone back together for any questions.

We hope that you can come and that it will be useful in supporting your child at home.

Daily Mile!

As a school we have started to work towards an initiative called the Daily Mile

http://thedailymile.co.uk/

A mile is roughly 4 times around the outside of our school and we have started to work towards this with an initial aim of a mile in a week. We trialed it out last week with one walk around the school and one run. The children loved it although the teachers were a bit puffed!!

Please see this link to the website. They state some of the benefits as;

"It's such a simple yet effective initiative - within a month the children are much fitter, and feel happier and more confident in themselves. By instilling these healthy habits at a young age, we're helping our children to live full and healthy lives."

"Physically active children and young people perform better academically than their inactive peers and those who are most active benefit the most."

Trip tomorrow!

Just a reminder we are going on our trip to the planetarium tomorrow! 

Children do not to bring book bags in but will need a coat and packed lunch if you indicated you were bringing it on you slips. 

We are aiming to leave at 9.20 and return at 4pm





 

Thank you helpers!

Thank you to all the parents and carers who helped today!

P.e

Monday is now the p.e day for both R1 and R2.
We have a Chelsea teaching football skills.

As the weather is changing we will begin to do some of these sessions outdoors.
Please can you provide your child with trainers (velcro) or plimsolls along with their p.e kit every Monday.

Space!

We have made a great start to our Space Topic!

Today something Crash landed in our playground! We know it is friendly as it has green and blue slime! 

We have put police tape around it while we discover what has happened!
