This week we have been taking part in our whole school History Week. We have been learning about the inspirational people we have named our new school houses after; Attenborough, Curie, Rashford, Turing and Benjamin.
As part of our activities we have done science experiments like Marie Curie, looking at how germs spread and why we need to wash our hands with soap, along with making some X-ray pictures of our hands. Taken part in a physical activity circuit to practice our sports skills like Marcus Rashford. And have learned about and drawn our favourite animals as part of our David Attenborough learning. It really has been a busy week!
Our Nativity practice is still underway, remember to bring in your own costumes if you prefer, but otherwise we will provide them. Make sure you reserve your tickets via Arbor. It will be the highlight of your Christmas Calendar,
Enjoy the weekend,
Thank you,
Ms Munro, Mrs Roberts and Mrs Shew
This week we would like you to get in the Christmas spirit. Can you do 3 Christmas related things and then draw a picture of them or send some photos in. You could put up your tree, visit family, shop for loved ones, sing songs or even eat some mince pies! We look forward to sharing some of your families Christmas traditions next week.
This week the children had the chance to go to Elfridges to do some Christmas shopping. Santa's Elves were very helpful and we had a great time choosing gifts. Remember parents, no peeking before Christmas!!!!!
As the weather is changeable at the moment please make sure your child has a warm coat, suitable shoes (preferably a pair of willy boots in school as well), a jumper and some spare clothes. You may also wish to send them in with a hat and some gloves, but please, as always, make sure everything is labelled!
We had so much fun playing in the garden!
If your child is staying for lunch, try to ensure they have a healthy, balanced lunch box. Below are some ideas.

If you fancy getting your hands dirty then why not try our no-cook playdough recipe. The children love helping to make our playdough in class. You could even make your recipe more exciting by adding some scents or even some glitter!
