UYC Workshop 24th April 2023

Hi everyone,

We’ve had a very busy first week back and it was wonderful to see children in their outfits / pyjamas for World Book Day. They all seemed to enjoy the visit from a local author – Dunkle Deed.

Well done to all the children who won prizes for their costumes, extreme reading locations or book character wood slices, examples of which you can see in the gallery below.

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported the Scholastic Book Fair; this has helped us raise much-needed commission to spend on books for our school library. The Book Fair will be open again after school on Monday 6th and Tuesday 7th.

Welcome Mr Harris!

We have welcomed Mr Harris to our school this week – our new Rowan teacher – and he has enjoyed getting to know Rowan children and parents.

Turkey-Syria Earthquake Appeal

Thank you again for your donations towards our Turkey-Syria fundraising day. Our JustGiving total stands at £354 which is an amazing effort!

Reminders

Tuesday 7th March – Vision screening for Reception children. If you do not want your child to take part, you MUST return the letter to opt out.

If you want your Year 5/6 child to take part in the Arthog residential visit (Friday 16th to Sunday 18th June 2023) it can be booked on sQuid. A deposit can be paid now to secure your child’s place.

To mark the start of Fairtrade Fortnight, a group of children visited the Bicton Heath Coop. They learnt about the benefits of Fairtrade, went on a treasure hunt around the store and even got to sample several Coop Fairtrade products. Unsurprisingly, the white chocolate and the chocolate cookies seemed to be the most well-liked products!

Help our school win a share of £12,000 by supporting us in the Shropshire Star Cash for Schools competition.

All you have to do is collect as many tokens as possible which will appear every day in the Shropshire Star newspaper from Wednesday, March 1 to Saturday, March 25, 2023. You can pick up a copy at your local newsagent or supermarket. The five schools with the most tokens collected per pupil, will walk away with a cash prize. The first placed school with the most tokens collected per pupil will scoop a whooping £5,000, followed by £3,000 for second, £2,000 for third and then two £1,000 awards, which will be presented to the fourth and fifth place schools.

Please see a copy of the newsletter that children have been given today.
