STEM Homework Challenge

A reminder of the photo challenge from the STEM Committee due this coming Thursday.

You should take a selfie doing something related to Science, Technology, Engineering or Maths. Please print the picture and write your NAME, HOUSE and CLASS on the back.

We will then create a display board of all the selfies.  The STEM Committee will judge and select overall first, second and third place winners.  They will receive points for their house.  Family pictures are more than welcome but please ensure each child has a copy of their picture to submit.

Please bring pictures to school by Thursday 19th March.

STEM Homework Challenge

Please see a note from the STEM Committee sent out on Friday 6th March. The deadline for this challenge is Thursday 19th March.

STEM SELFIE HOUSE CHALLENGE

The idea for this challenge was created by the STEM Committee and it is to encourage pupils to engage in STEM activities outside of school.

You should take a selfie doing something related to Science, Technology, Engineering or Maths. Please print the picture and write your NAME, HOUSE and CLASS on the back.

We will then create a display board of all the selfies.  The STEM Committee will judge and select overall first, second and third place winners.  They will receive points for their house.  Family pictures are more than welcome but please ensure each child has a copy of their picture to submit.  Please bring pictures to school by Thursday 19th March. Thank you.

Good luck and happy STEM-ing 🙂

Food Bank Collection

Please see a note below from the Pupil Council, Mrs Stirling and Mrs Phee.

The Pupil Council Committee have organised to collect non-food items for our local food bank. We are hoping you can raid your cupboards and donate some essential  items for those in crisis.

If you have any of the following  items we would be very grateful:

  • Household items – laundry liquid detergent, laundry powder, washing up liquid
  • Feminine hygiene products
  • Baby supplies – nappies, baby wipes and non-perishable baby food.
  • Toiletries – deodorant, toilet paper, shower gel, shaving gel, shampoo, soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, hand wipes.

Some information of our plans have previously been shared, therefore we have already received some donations.

Thank you to everyone who has already donated to this worthwhile cause.

Collection date: by Friday 27th March to Mrs Stirling’s room.

Parent Pay

Please note  that Parent Pay is now live for you to pay the balance of our trip to Eastwood Theatre. There were some technical difficulties over the weekend which have now been rectified.

Beat the Street 2020 

Today your child has been sent home with information about the above.

Beat the Street is a physical activity challenge across ERC which begins on Wednesday 19th February.

Local schools, workplaces and community groups are competing to see who can walk, run, scoot or cycle the furthest before the Wednesday 1st April.

We have been allocated ‘fobs’ for staff, families and pupils to collect points to our school account.

Pupil fobs are green and have already been pre-registered to the school’s account and activated by the Beat the Street team.

Family fobs in the form of credit card style need to be registered  online  with the card number if you wish to take part at home.

There will be ‘Beat Boxes’ on lamp posts around the community (e.g. bottom of the lane) for us to tap the fob and collect points. More information can be found on the maps sent home. 

Please note that it is not enough to scan a random box – you will need to go between them to gain points for us!

I’m sure this challenge will provide many hours of family fun!

Good luck!
