Fun Science in Class 4!

To introduce our ‘electricity’ topic, this afternoon Class 4 explored a range of items including topic books, buzz wire games, remote control cars, plugs and circuit making equipment. They had lots of fun.

Welcome Back to Nursery

It was lovely to see the children settling in so well on the first day back and enjoying exploring the new areas and resources in the Nursery, both indoors and outdoors.

Over the next week we will be developing a new way of children choosing their school lunch. This will involve children placing their name against the lunch choices, with parent support, and we thank you for your support with this in advance.

Just a reminder that Breakfast Club is now open to Nursery children from aged 3 upwards, as well as the after-school clubs on Monday to Thursday. At present, Nursery children are unable to attend Cross Country Club. If you have any questions about the clubs available to Nursery children and costs, please speak to a member of staff.

Many thanks.

Well done Class 4!

The children in Class 4 have had a wonderful day. They have all enjoyed being together and catching up with news about their holiday adventures.

Today, the children were introduced to our new ‘Novel Study’ which will be ‘Charlotte’s Web’. We read a section from Chapter One and the children were asked to discuss the events and give their thoughts and feelings about what had happened and how it had made them feel. The children worked really hard to talk to each other and keep on task to record their ideas by writing them in thought bubbles.

We spent time exploring place value in Maths. Children had to identify the value of different digits in 3 and 4-digit numbers. We used number cards to make a range of numbers and the children had to write the values of the digit in place value grids. We then found the biggest and smallest numbers and also put all of the numbers in order from biggest to smallest.

This afternoon, we talked about the qualities of a person in Class 4 and what we would like to continue to grow as. For example, the children suggested that they wanted to continue to grow as writers, historians, artists, mathematicians, Christians, good friends, actors and many more! The children used Microsoft Publisher to create signs for a display board to remind us of what we are working hard to be.

The Class 4 newsletter has been placed in the Class 4 noticeboard and it will be uploaded onto here tomorrow.

Well done Class 4 – it was a great day!

Mrs Conde.

First Day Back

We have had a busy first day in Class 2 today! The children have enjoyed sharing their Summer holiday adventures and showed each other what they have collected in their envelopes. If you still wish to bring in any envelopes they will be going on display at the end of the week.

The children were introduced to their new History topic ‘Toys – past and present’. We had a class discussion about our favourite toys and the children had fun painting their favourite toy for a display. I have challenged the children to ask an older person at home what they used to play with when they were younger. We will be starting our lesson (next Thursday), sharing our findings. Any notes or photos to help the children with this would be greatly appreciated. Some children have had fun in our new role play area this afternoon, which is our new Toy Shop outside Class 2.

A curriculum letter has been sent home today, giving an overview of what to expect this term. A copy is attached below.

Medication in School

Please could any inhalers and other medication that your child may need during the school day be brought into school as soon as possible. If your child left their medication in school over the summer holidays, please could you check that this is still in date and if not arrange for a replacement to be brought into school.

All medication will need a new consent form completing including asthma care plans. This paperwork was given to your child on the last day of term.

Thank you in advance for your support.

We hope you have all had a lovely summer holiday and that the children are looking forward to the new term ahead.

Uniform

Please can we ask that you label all items of school uniform, including PE kit, coats/jackets, shoes and PE footwear. This will ensure that any items mislaid are reunited with the correct owner! Can we remind you that JoJo bows are not permitted and only stud earrings can be worn which must be removed for PE. Thank you in advance for your support with this.

Lunch and Club Money

Please can any monies for lunch//Breakfast club/after-school clubs be in an envelope marked clearly with your child’s name, the amount and what the monies are for. Cheques for lunches should be made payable to Shropshire Council.

Clubs

The after-school clubs have not been updated yet on the website so they may not show when this is emailed out. The clubs will restart when we return to school on Tuesday and, although not every club may run next term, there will be something for all classes every day.

We look forward to seeing all the children on Tuesday 5th September.

Many thanks.

Shrewsbury in Bloom School Grounds Award

I knew I’d forgotten something in Thursday’s assembly! Earlier this week we were visited by 2 judges from the Shrewsbury in Bloom Committee; it was very short notice as they only informed us 30 minutes before their arrival! They were taken aback with our wonderful wildlife garden, the orchard, the wealth of vegetables being grown and the dipping pond and, as a result, we were awarded second place in the awards. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the creation of the garden and us receiving this recognition as a result!

Thank you

On behalf of all the staff, thank you for your cards, gifts, and kind words. We feel very lucky to have such fantastic parental support and we hope you all have a wonderful summer holiday.

See you all on Tuesday 5th September!
