This week our Star Pupils have been excellent role models. Showing fabulous behaviour and amazing effort in class.

Great work from this week’s maths champions.

Recently in the news there has been notification of a potential risk when children are online playing games and watching Kids YouTube videos. Below we have some helpful informal guides for parents in JPEG and PDF format.

This is a link to the NSPCC website which offers advice on keeping your child safe online.

Here is a link to the Momo PDF

Below are some practical guides to help you protect your child and monitor your child’s online usage.

We will be supporting Comic Relief on 15.3.19. The children will be taking part in activities and a Comic Relief House Assembly.

On this day children are invited to bring £1 to wear red or sport crazy hair (or both!) 

We are looking forward to a fun day raising money for a great cause!

Classes will be taking part in World Book Day on the 7th of March.

Children are invited to come to school on this day either dressed as their favourite character or in their pj’s ready for a bedtime story!

We will be holding our Eco Active Day this Friday – 1.3.19

Children will be taking part in activities all day, some of which will take place outdoors regardless of the weather.

Children should come to school in clothes/footwear that you don’t mind getting dirty & appropriate for the weather. 

Great effort from this week’s maths champions – great accuracy and speed.

Well done to this week’s wonderful Star Pupils.

Today at assembly, the Eco committee introduced Fairtrade Fortnight which starts on Monday and runs for two weeks.

ARTICLE 27 – every child has the right to a standard of living that is good enough to meet their physical, social and mental needs.

There will be special activities throughout the two weeks including

• homework competition
• fairtrade house tokens for children with Fairtrade snacks
• Fairtrade tuckshop every day at playtime
• Fairtrade activities in class.

homework competition

each child needs to design a Fairtrade tea/coffee/hot chocolate cup. The winning design will win 10,000 house points. This needs to be finished and returned to teachers by the 8th March.

Fairtrade house tokens

Samantha designed these EPIC Fairtrade house tokens and they will be given to children who bring in Fairtrade snacks during Fairtrade fortnight.

Fairtrade tuckshop

To support Fairtrade cocoa farmers, we will be selling Freddo, Fudge, Kit Kats and Maltesers during Fairtrade Fortnight. Prices range from 30 p to 60 p

We would appreciate your support during Fairtrade Fortnight, especially to encourage and help children with their Homework competition. This helps keep the children focused on the importance of ethical and fair trading.

Thanks

Fish, Chips & Peas (Red)

Hot Dog (Green)

Lentil Soup (White)
