Dear Parents/Carers
This week in Year 5 and 6 we have been writing poems about water. The children have produced some lovely work. Watch this space for some examples next week.........
In project, we have been making Viking long boats. They were a little fiddly to stick together, but the children percevered and rose to the challenge.
PTA FUNDRAISING FOR COMIC RELIEF
Noses will be on sale in school during the week commencing 15th March for £1.50. They will be sold during school hours in the same way that the Poppy Appeal items are.
The PTA will also be running a tuck shop in the playground after school on Friday, so please bring your pennies at collection for an after-school treat. Please be aware that due to Natasha’s Law, a parent/guardian will need to be present when making a purchase at the tuck shop. All packaging will be displayed so that parents can check ingredients.
Fundraising For Ukraine
As a staff we are very aware of the continuing, terrible situation and humanitarian crisis that is unfolding in Ukraine. In last week's newsletter there was information and helpful websites that support discussing this issue with your child should you wish to do so or if they are asking questions.
We will be meeting as a staff, next week, to plan for a fundraising event in support of the DEC campaign to help the people of Ukraine. We were mindful, however, that this event did not get muddled in with an already planned charity event in support of Red Nose Day. We will send details of this separate fundraising event in due course.
Year 5 and 6 homework
Homework has been posted on your child's Goggle Classroom page. Please ask them to check.
Play Leaders
Thank you to the Year 6 children who have given in their application forms to become Play Leaders. Miss Sharman will be looking at them this weekend and will let children know whether their application has been successful next week.
Have a lovely weekend
Miss Sharman, Mrs Devlin and Mrs Witherall
