We started this week with Friday's usual Headteacher's Sticker assembly as there was so much excitement with the sponsored Bunny Run on Friday!  Each class took part in a run either round the Rec or the playground which saw them running lots of laps and enjoying raising money for the Friends of Kington Primary School.  Well done to everyone who took part or supported the event and thank you so much to our hard-working Friends who sold all the bunny ears and set up the course.

It was lovely to celebrate our children's achievements in today's assembly. Year Four have started our class assembly season with a super musical performance on their ukuleles and their Ancient Egyptians song.  The stickers were awarded for many reasons as usual including some Year Six running teammates looking after each other and spurring their friends on to keep going. We've also said well done to lots of children who are working hard on their phonics or writing skills and to those who are spotted always doing the right thing and setting a great example to those around them. Well done everyone.

It was lovely to share Aria in Year One's special award for entering a Blue Peter book review competition which has earned her a much coveted Blue Peter badge - a very special thing indeed. Thank you for sharing this with us Aria and your fabulous artwork - enjoy the free entry into all the amazing events that it brings you too.

We held our first maths workshops for our Year One parents last week (thank you Mrs Roberts-Powell) which was really well-attended and equally enjoyed. Practising any skills such as maths, reading or phonics at home is vital at any age and the children loved playing maths games with their adults so they can continue embedding their learning at home. We hope to continue these workshops with other younger year groups soon so please keep an eye out.
