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.

• Beautiful weather and work

  Thu 28 May 2020 Mr D Perkins

  The weather has been particularly warm this week and the children have been making the most of it.

   

  From amazing knitting, chalk patterns, making dragons inspired by Jackie Morris' story to replanting the beds at the front of the school.  Thank you so much to Turners for their kind donation of plants and flowers; they are beautiful and the children enjoyed planting them.  We even discovered a toad amongst the pots, which we released into our pond area.

  

• Achievement Assembly thank you.

  Fri 22 May 2020 Mrs A C Phillips

  We have arrived at the end of another half term with children working brilliantly both in school and at home. It is so good to see the photographs on the blog and in class pages. It is time for home learning to be safely tucked away and for you to enjoy half term. I know that so many of you have found amazing ways to both learn and play so enjoy a bit more play and some time to relax too. As it would be Achievement Assembly today I have made a video, or two! You will need to watch to see why there are two? Please continue to stay safe and positive and remember how remarkable you and your families have been and continue to be. 

  You can see my videos by clicking here, which will take you to our Video Resource Centre.

• Liz Pichon inspired art

  Wed 20 May 2020 Mr D Perkins
  During the afternoon, the children completed some art work inspired by Liz Pichon, who is the author of Tom Gates.  The younger children designed and made new colourful leaves for our tree sculpture.  These will look lovely in the sunshine we're experiencing this week.

  

• Picasso

  Wed 13 May 2020 Mr D Perkins
  For their art activity this week, the children looked at some of the work of Picasso before creating these lovely pieces of work. 

  

• Famous Art

  Wed 06 May 2020
  Children in school today had fun working through their Home Learning tasks.  In addition, the children also found out about a famous photographer.

  

• Love

  Fri 01 May 2020 Mrs ACLPhillips

  As we enter the month of May we start our new value of Love. How fitting in a week when we have seen so much love and admiration for Captain Tom Moore on his 100th Birthday and having achieved such a remarkable fundraising total alongside the incredible 100 laps of his garden. I know that some of our children made special cards and sent messages. It is also remarkable to hear about personal challenges and achievements that Kington Primary School children should be really proud of. It made us smile to see the Let's go Bounce Challenge.

  When Piglet asked Pooh Bear "how do you spell love" Pooh Bear said "you don't spell it you feel it"

  Our May message is to keep safe, keep positive and keep finding ways to show love and care for everyone and everything around us.
