Remembrance Assembly
Last Friday, our community came together to remember those who have lost their lives or been affected in any way by conflicts and wars. Mrs Walsh led our assembly and each class showcased their wreaths, art work, sang songs and performed poetry. It was an amazing turnout from families; thank you for being part of it.
Cross Country Tournament
Fifteen of our children took part in the Co-op Academies PE Tournament this week. They ran their socks off and came back to school with lots of individual medals and the overall team winning medals – we are incredibly proud of them all! #succeedtogether
Skills Builder – Home Challenge
This weekend’s challenge is all about reflecting on an area that you would like to get better at. I’ve had a good think about this one and I would like to get better at completing the Daily Mile as it has such a positive effect on my mental wellbeing. Three things I will do to feel more confident in this area would be: Get outside at playtimes more often, build up each day so I increase laps and drink some water to keep hydrated – wish me luck! Let me know what you plan to get better at either via Facebook Messenger or write it down and we’ll display it on our Skills Builder board.
And finally…
We hope you have a fabulous weekend and are wishing our children who are feeling poorly a speedy recovery. Mrs Wierzbianski will be resting and recovering this weekend and Ms Pascoe will be meeting up with some old school friends.
We will see you all bright and early on Monday morning!
