Feel the rhythm
Thursday afternoon means African drumming for year 5/6…. Possibly to the annoyance of the rest of the school.
Welcome Back
What a fantastic start to the new school year!
The Year 5/6 team is really pleased to see the children return to school. With smiles and an enthisiastic attitude to their learning, the children have really impressed their teachers.
Today, the children have made predictions based on what happened to Humpty Dumpty after his fall. From getting an office job to narrowly avoiding a huge frying pan, the ideas came thick and fast.
Keep up the good work.
Own It app
Has you child got a mobile phone? If they have, do the have the Own It app from the BBC?
The Own It app helps children and young people take control of your online life. It gives them advice when they need it, in real-time as they type. It’s designed to help them make smart choices, feel more confident, and live their best life online.
The Own It app comes with a special keyboard. This can be used like any other keyboard, but it also gives users helpful tips and friendly advice as they write.
There’s also the ability to track how they feel and improve their wellbeing. There are plenty of gifs and emojis so users can express themselves.
The Own It keyboard and app is personal to the user. Everything your child types is kept completely private, and never leaves the Own It app on their phone.
Wearing PE kit to school – which days?
Hopefully you have read the information in the Autumn for all – Key Info Scholes, which also has a link to our uniform policy.
On the days your child has PE, they should come to school in their PE kit. (Track-suit bottoms instead of shorts would be good on colder days. Footwear : black/brown/grey/white flat shoes which are safe to run around in.)
Footwear on PE days could be children’s ‘school shoes’ which are often a ‘trainer’ style anyway, if you want to avoid having to buy 2 pairs of shoes.
Please find below the days each class has allocated PE times, which will be taught outdoors, except in extreme weather.
- F2 Sunshine and F2 Rainbow (Miss Parling & Mrs Allen-Kelly/Mrs Wilkins) – Wednesday & Friday from week beginning 28 September
- 1KN (Miss Lowry/Mrs Lake) – Monday & Friday
