Class 5 Homework 10.03.17

Children have been set a piece of Maths homework today to reinforce work we have done this week on finding area of shapes.  Hexagons group are expected to complete all of the sheet but children in Pentagons, Circles and Triangles do not have to complete the “Now try this!” task.  Please encourage your child to complete the task independently but it would be helpful if you could annotate the sheet if there are any parts which they needed support with. Thank you in advance for your support.

Never a dull day…

It’s certainly never a dull day at Bicton, as you can see from the gallery below!  We had some unexpected visitors shortly after 7:30 this morning so it was quite an experience for the staff as well as the children arriving for Breakfast Club.

Thankfully Mrs Ross and Mrs Hill came to the rescue and stepped in to escort the horses back to their field, accompanied by Miss Moran (in some very inappropriate footwear!)  – thank you ladies 🙂 Thank you to the children for being so sensible and to all the staff who directed traffic, escorted children safely past the horses and for cleaning up what the horses left behind!

Extra SATs Booster

Due to several Year 6 children taking part in the Sportshall Athletics at The Corbet on Monday after school, we are running an extra SATs Booster next week on Tuesday from 3:15 – 4:30.  This is so that the children who are taking part in the Corbet event do not miss out.  Children who come to SATs Booster on Monday are also welcome to attend on Tuesday, if they wish, but this is entirely optional.  The only thing we ask is that Year 6s attend at least one Booster session next week.

Thank to the Year 6s for agreeing to take part in the Sportshall athletics at the last minute – we are very grateful!

Mrs Johnson and Miss Moran

Tag Rugby

Well done to the Year 6s who took part in the tag rugby tournament earlier this week.  They finished 3rd out of the 7 schools taking part and there was some pretty nifty footwork on show by all accounts!

Class 5 Y5s orienteering

In the last week of term, a group of Year 5s braved the very sunny weather to do some orienteering around Bicton village. One of the checkpoints proved very difficult to find!

The Queen’s Birthday Celebrations

We all had great fun celebrating the Queen’s birthday today. We had singing, a hat parade and competition, delicious food and the Queen herself even made an appearance!! We would like to say a big thank you for all the donations of food and drinks, we really appreciate it.
