Head teacher’s update

It has been an incredibly busy week for us in school and a week of demonstrating the variety of skills and talents that our children have.

Well done to all of the children who participated in the Dudley Gymnastics Competition.  We had teams representing all of our year groups.  Mrs Clarke was incredibly proud of how brilliantly all of the children represented our school.  The teams returned to school with lots of medals to celebrate in today’s Celebration Assembly.

Huge thanks to 3N, who started our morning today with a brass concert.  The children played with great skill and confidence and it was a pleasure to see the progress that they have made, over the term. Thank you also to some of our older children who demonstrated their skill and talent in singing, violin, trumpet and euphonium.

I hope that you all have a lovely weekend and enjoy the sunshine.

Collective Worship

This week, we thought again about the core value of honesty and how this also links to our core value of forgiveness.  We  considered how Peter felt when he had betrayed Jesus and how the relationship between Peter and Jesus was restored through forgiveness.

In Thursday’s assembly we revisited our behaviour rules and the importance of using kind and respectful words. We learnt the acronym, THINK to remind us of the importance and power of the words that we use.  As a school, we have agreed to consider whether  what we are saying is:

True

Helpful

Inspiring

Necessary

Kind

More Forest School Adventures!

Yesterday RY had their first forest school experience. The children were very excited and there were many smiling, muddy faces at the end of the day!

Blast off!

The children in reception have had an amazing time learning all about space.  They have loved our space role play corner and really impressed us with their moon fact writing.

        

 

4C Rocks

Our new science topic this term is rocks. To start our learning off we looked at different types of rocks and had to describe the way they feel and look.
