Role playing Romans and Celts

As part of our topic lesson this week we have been learning about The Romans first invasion of Britain. We role played the invasion to help us gain a better understanding of what it might have been like for both The Romans and The Celts. Half the class were Roman soldiers, sailing their ships towards the shores of Britain buy finasteride in canada with Julius Caesar leading the way and the other half were a tribe of Celts living by the shores of Britain. As we acted out what happened and the feelings each side might have felt, three children acted as narrators using a script to tell us the events of the invasion.

Harvest Celebration Assembly

Next Friday 24th October is our harvest and autumn term celebration assembly.  We would very much appreciate donations of food items for our assembly, which will be gratefully received by St. Winefride’s in Shrewsbury.  Please could any donations be left at the Office before next Friday morning.

It is always wonderful to see so many parents and other family members at our assemblies but could we please ask you not to park on Bicton Lane and to use the village hall car park instead.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Chris’s Final Assembly

We will be saying goodbye to our vicar Chris, on Monday morning in assembly.  Each class has been busy making a big card for Chris but you are welcome to send in a personal card if you wish.

Final calendar photos

The final three photos will be taken between Monday and Wednesday next week, for February, May and September. Fingers crossed everybody is in school!  If your child has taken their clothes for their photo home, please could they bring them back into school on Monday.

Just a reminder that there will be no after-school clubs on Tuesday or Wednesday, because of Parents’ evenings.

Calendar

Your child has been given a letter explaining what they will need to bring in next week for the calendar photos.  We are hoping to take all of the photos by the end of the day on Wednesday, providing that all of the children and staff involved in a particular month are present!  As explained in the letter, it would be helpful if children could leave their clothes in school, until their photo has been taken.

Parents’ Evening – Booking and No Clubs

If you have not already made an appointment to meet with your child’s class teacher/s,  please can you do so before next Friday when the booking system closes.

There will be no after-school clubs on those two evenings (21st and 22nd October.)

Helicopter Visit

We are all set for the forthcoming helicopter visit next Wednesday.  You are more than welcome to pop into School during the morning but please remember there will be very limited parking available at school.  Please can you use the Village Hall car park and not park on Bicton lane which can cause hazards to motorists and pedestrians.

We are looking forward to parents and/or grandparents joining Class 2 for lunch next week from Tuesday to Friday.  You can order and pay for a school lunch at the Office, if you have not already done so.

Making pet carriers

This week we have been looking at what pets we have and talking about them with the rest of the class.  Today we thought about what a pet needs for a pet carrier / home.  We decided that they need food, water, a shelter, air holes, a handle and toys.  We then used junk materials to make our own carrier/home for our pet and thought carefully about what features it needed to include.  Here are some pictures of what we made…
