A huge well done to all our wonderful students who did an amazing job in their first matinee performance this afternoon! You should all be very proud of yourself knowing that all the hard work and preparations have paid off!

I hope you bring this same fantastic energy to our show tomorrow evening also. Remember to come into school for 6:30pm wearing your costume. You may also want to bring a bottle of water and some money for the tuck shop. We’ll be meeting in the empty classrooms as we did today.

Also, on top of the show there are other arrangements for tomorrow…

Cricketers, you need to be a school for 7:40am as the bus will leave sharp at 7:45am. See your letter for details about the timing of your day.

STEM workshop children. You should be in school for approximately 8:40am. Please enter through the main office and meet in Mrs Kerr’s room. You’ll be back at school for lunchtime.

In the meantime, here are some fantastic show pictures to enjoy.

Our school show is fast approaching and this week we are looking to organise our costumes. Each child brought home an outline of their costume last week (please see details below). In addition to this, each performer will need a ‘party prop’ such as a party hat, glasses or other party item. This should be something small which can be taken on and off easily.

Can all children please bring in their complete costume and party prop by Friday 31st May. Please make sure all items of clothing, party prop and costume bag have names clearly on display. If you have any questions please don’t hestiate to ask!

Please find this weeks homework listed below.

Walk to School Week

As it is Walk to School Week, we are encouraging everyone to walk to school! Please complete the related activities in your Walk to School Booklet.

School Show 

We will be planning our costumes for the school show this week. We will try to plan what our characters wear based on clothes we already have, so planning from home should be minimal! Costumes for the show are not expected in school this week but children should let us know if there is something they don’t have so we can organise this as soon as possible. Please let us know if there are any parts of the costume that you cannot source by the end of the week.

Spelling homework is going to evolve in term 4! Instead of practising a new rule this week, I would like you to use your normal spelling time to think about how you would like to do your spelling homework. What will be interesting and engaging for you to do while also helping you to practise your words? Have a think and we will discuss ideas at the end of the week!

Please complete the special maths booklet for Thursday.

School Show –

A small script extract will be issued to anyone wishing to audition for the school show. A specific part will be assigned (although this may be different to the role you wish to play in the actual show!) for you to practise throughout the week, before auditions on Thursday lunchtime.
