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.
Firstly, thank you to everyone who attended our Family Bingo Evening on Tuesday. It was so nice to see the hall full. Thank you again to our brilliant and hard working Friends Committee for organising the event, which raised nearly £300.
On Thursday, the majority of classes were out on exciting trips. Year One and Year Two enjoyed a great day at Brockhampton, while Year Three visited the Sculpture Park to watch an amazing dance performance and explore the art work. Our oldest children had a super day at Hay Festival which also has its own blog post by Mrs Bretherton.
The children who went to Hay Festival had the exciting opportunity to see Harry Hill, Ade Adepitan and Chitra Soundar. Many of our children were able to meet Harry Hill personally and get his autograph and some Year 4's managed to meet Cressida Cowell too - such lovely memories to keep.
To end the week, we gathered in the hall to recognise the achievements of a number of children over this half term; all worthy nominations from their class teachers. It was also an opportunity to say well done to the children who receive special lunchtime cards for particularly impressive behaviour and play.
We wish you all a pleasant half term break and hope that the sun continues to shine. We look forward to seeing you on Monday June 3rd for another successful half term.
Welcome back the summer term.
In assembly today, we congratulated children who had recycled plastics and other materials into new, useful things. There were a huge number of entries for our judges to pick from and the effort by all was outstanding.
As Year 3 & 4 are on their trip to the Roman remains at Caerleon tomorrow, we also congratulated this week's winners of the Head Teacher's Award.
During the afternoon, Mr Perkins took 8 children from Year 4 up to Lady Hawkins' School for a mini-tennis competition. Both our teams played very well and fairly; We finished 4th and missed out on winning by 1 point! Congratulations Eardisley, who now go through to the next stage.
