Last week we had a virtual 5H quiz – well done and thanks to everyone who joined us! Congratulations to Jack who came 1st!
This afternoon in 5H we played virtual Bingo! It was lots of fun. Congratulations to Faye who won the first 2 rounds, and Heidi who won the third round!
Sadly no usual sweetie prizes can be given out, so school website pride will have to do for now! Anyone in 5H who wants to join us next time, just email me (megan.hardy@taw.org.uk) and I will send you the details. We are taking online security precautions with our video calls. Take care everyone, Miss H xxx
The Explorer by Katherine Rundell.
The book is on its way to me and should be here any day now. As soon as I’ve got it, I will let you know via the website and Facebook so we can start ASAP!
Thank you Olivia for the recommendation. Here is the blurb to tell you more…
From his seat in the tiny aeroplane, Fred watches as the mysteries of the Amazon jungle pass by below him. He has always dreamed of becoming an explorer, of making history and of reading his name amongst the lists of great discoveries. If only he could land and look about him.
As the plane crashes into the canopy, Fred is suddenly left without a choice. He and the three other children may be alive, but the jungle is a vast, untamed place. With no hope of rescue, the chance of getting home feels impossibly small.
Except, it seems, someone has been there before them.
We have set up an NJS Youtube channel, please find the link below!

I am uploading all my Facebook live storytime videos from the last week, so if you haven’t watched these on Facebook then you can catch up on all of them now on our new Youtube channel. Our book (The Girl Who Stole an Elephant) is absolutely fantastic!
Please subscribe to and keep an eye on our channel because more videos from staff will start to appear soon…
Keep safe and smiling everyone! Love Miss H xxx
Just repeating my message from yesterday- if anyone from 5H is interested in being part of a whole class video call catch up, please email me ASAP (megan.hardy@taw.org.uk) so I can send you the details! Pass the message on to anyone who you think might not have seen this.
Take care, stay safe and miss you loads. Love Miss H xxx
I was amazed yesterday when the author of the fantastic book I’m reading on the NJS Facebook page each day tuned in to watch! She loved seeing all the comments that you have left about her book ‘The Girl Who Stole an Elephant’ and she sent me this today! WOW!!!!!
Hi 5H!
I miss you! Had a few requests for us to try and arrange a whole class video call. If you’re keen to join in, please email me so I can reply with the details. (megan.hardy@taw.org.uk)
Lots of love to you all, Miss H xx
We were AMAZED this evening during the Facebook live storytime that the author, yes the ACTUAL AUTHOR, or our book ‘The Girl who Stole an Elephant’, Nizrana Farook tuned in to watch! I took great pleasure in sending her a message back telling her how much we are loving her fantastic book.
Take care everyone, and see you tomorrow at 5pm for the next couple of chapters. Miss H xxx
