Our School Value for May is Cooperation.
Our Core Values: Hope, Trust, Courage & Perseverance, Respect, Cooperation, Responsibility, Kindness & Friendship, Honesty, Peace and Understanding.
We explore our core values in our school and class assemblies and look out for them in our daily practice, earning Values Vouchers and Beads as we go.
A great end to the week with several celebrations and the School Summer Fayre.
Headteacher Stickers went to proud children and ranged from amazing writing to being skilful at Rounders.
We also said well done to the children whose designs for Uncle G’s Ice Cream Parlour (part of The Lion Restaurant) were chosen for a prize. The overall winning entry will soon become Uncle G’s official pot design.
Scotland has had a very successful week as they became the winning house in the Sweet Pea growing competition.
We were thankful that the rain stayed off for us to enjoy a fantastic Sports Day. We witnessed some amazing balancing, throwing, jumping and running (including the adults!). Congratulations to all the children for their fantastic efforts and achievements. Medals were presented to individual class members for sporting achievement and commitment throughout the year with trophy's for three children who have had an exceptional all round sporting year. The Victrix and Victor Ludorum awards are kindly donate and presented by Kington Festival Committee. When all the scores for the day were counted we celebrated success for Ireland-KS1 and Scotland-KS2. It was very close!
The event was also a way to support the British Heart Foundation as all the children warmed up at the start of the day skipping to raise money for this important charity.
Congratulations to Kington Festival Carnival Princess's and Prince for 2014. Emma presented them with their flowers today and they are looking forward to being an important part of the Festival celebrations.
We have also opened our stamp collection box to support Kington Lions. All used stamps gratefully received.
We are pleased to be able to offer a fun Multi Summer Holiday Course this year. Aaron from SuperStars spent a great day with us introducing some of the activities to the children and telling them a little bit about the week.
