weekly news 17th July

We have been enjoying our Aspirations week so far. We all looked brilliant on Monday dressed up showing what we would like to be when we grow up. Each morning we have been going into assembly and listening to different parents or governors telling us why they chose their particular career. Our visitors have been inspiring us by telling us all about what they do in their jobs and what training they had to do. Hopefully the children have been telling you all about it at home !

Adam and Emily Bidwell’s Mum came into class to tell us all about being a Science teacher. We found out about some of the equipment that she uses with her students and we explored some magnets, looked at a skeleton and a model of the human body. It was a very exciting morning !

It was great to see all the photos of the sunflowers that the children took home. We chose a winner in each class and they should have brought home a certificate and a small prize ! The tallest sunflower has reached an amazing 270cm so far ! Well done Elizabeth !

Thank you to all the parents who have already exported their child’s tapestry journal. Don’t forget to do this before the end of term next Wednesday in order to keep this wonderful record of your child’s learning journey so far.

At the end of this week your child will be bringing home a folder containing their ‘wow’ book and all the story scribes they have done over their reception year. It is so exciting to see the fantastic progress that all the children have made. They have all worked so hard this year and everyone who works with them comment on what well behaved and sensible children they are. It has been a pleasure to teach them this year !

At the end of the day on Friday, the children will also bring home their puddlesuits and P.E. kits and wellies. However, if you would like to take their puddlesuits and wellies before  Friday that would be fine. Please note we will need P.E. kits on Friday afternoon for the ‘Go 4 run’ on the common.
