Happy Friday everyone!
It has been lovely to see so many of our children returning to school this week. We are glad that they are all feeling better.
As you will be aware, due to Covid, we are required to keep the classrooms well ventilated. Therefore, doors and windows are open during the day. As the weather has decided to take on a wintery feel, we would encourage children to bring coats to school every day.
This week in Year 5 and 6, the children have enjoyed writing instructions. They watched their teachers making a jelly on Monday and then wrote the instructions for what they saw. Later in the week, they wrote instructions on something of their choice for others to follow.
On Friday 3rd December we will be taking part in the Unite The Uniforms campaign in honour of the millions of people who have served in the NHS and emergency services. Children are invited to come to school wearing the colours of the emergency services; red, blue, green or orange. In class we will be thinking about how these people help us and why it is important to honour them. We will make links to Children’s Rights and use our pupil voice to write letters of thanks, which we will send to our local services. Suggested donation is £1, but please give as little or as much as you wish so that we can all join in the dressing up fun! Donations will go towards building the UK’s first ‘Emergency Services Cenotaph’.
Have a lovely weekend
