We have had such a wonderfully busy week across school and we would like to share some news from the different activities we have enjoyed this week.
Players from Years 3 and 4 went to LHS to take part in a 'bee netball' tournament on Tuesday and played so well impressing each other and Mrs Wood & Mrs Joyce.
We have spent time across school celebrating 'World Book Day' in lots of different creative ways. Every class has been excited to spend a session with Kate from 'The Courtyard' working on performance poetry. Kate was really impressed with the quality of our drama work and the confidence that she saw when we were performing. Some classes enjoyed some 'buddy reading' time where everyone had time to 'read for pleasure' which is a key focus across school and Y4 visited Kington library. KS1 had a fantastic visit to Hereford to see 'The owl and the pussycat' and to spend their £1 book vouchers. We were so amazed at the variety of costumes which were worn on Friday for our WBD celebrations and would like to thank everyone for the hard work and thought that had obviously gone into them, it really made our day special to see everyone and guess who they were!
In our Friday assembly we were able to give out the prizes to the winners of both our poetry writing and book in a box/jar competitions which Mrs Welson and Miss Moss from LHS had a lovely but tough time judging! (Please remember that the boxes and jars will be on display for families to see after school on Monday in the hall).
We also said 'well done' to our Head-teacher's sticker children this week who had shown so many positive qualities and values including kindness, determination, enthusiasm for learning, consistency of positive attitude and hard work and being a brilliant role model for others.
We then finished our week with our two discos organised and run by our wonderful 'Friends' group which were great fun and a super way to end a memorable week.
Photos of our WBD will be shared on the website next week.
