3P Deer Park

3P had a wonderful time at the Deer Park on Tuesday 14th October.

My group were lucky enough to see a herd of deer! We also measured around the outside of a tree in order to work out how old it was. Lucy was spot on with 500 years old! Well done Lucy.

The whole of 3P were amazing and did NJS proud!

 

 

Class 3P Beech’s Base this Friday 17th October (PM)

Dear Parents and Carers of 3P,

Just to let you know that 3P have our first Beech’s Base session in school, on Friday 17th October this week, all afternoon. Mr Butler sends his apologies this was not mentioned on the last weekly diary post on Friday last week.  There will be some curriculum-based activities and some exploratory/enrichment ones, in the woodland environment at the bottom of NJS school field.

Please ensure you send your child in wearing clothing that is weather-appropriate / waterproof coats etc, which will keep them warm and dry, i.e.: clothing fairly similar to their Chetwynd Deer Park clothing, wearing a pair of normal trainers for the inside, and their wellies in a bag for the afternoon. The afternoon will go ahead in all weathers, unless it is torrential / dangerous.

They will need clothing that they don’t mind getting muddy, as it can be boggy down there. Wellies ARE advised – trainers / walking boots may get heavily soiled by the mud. Several children have, in the past, worn their new white trainers – suffice to say, they weren’t ‘white’ ever again! Long sleeves and trouser legs are a requirement, as they may encounter nettles and thorns. Some children occasionally do wear waterproof over-trousers if they have them – its up to you.

As always, if you need to, please ask questions of us on the yard first thing/ straight after school, or you can email directly.

Kind regards,

Mrs Porteous

6B Skills 4 Bills

Thank you to Skills 4 Bills for an amazing session with 6B this morning.  The children enjoyed learning how to budget and save money.  Very valuable lessons learnt.

Well done everyone!
