Boys Computing Club (Thursdays) – apologies

Dear Parents,

Unfortunately, due to the large number of replies generally, I was unable to finalise a number of children for computing club, for which I apologise.

The maximum number of boys I can take will be 20. Any unsuccessful children will be automatically put forward to the Summer club, which is open to boys and girls.

Any children who asked to attend will bring home a slip, informing you whether there is space for them to attend, by the end of Tuesday.

Please contact me if you have any questions.

Regards,

Mr Butler.

1st February Music morning and MFL visit to Burton Borough

Today, we were visited by Miss Simpson from TACT and she delivered a musical theatre workshop for all children.

Yr6 children learned how to sing Circle of Life and performed the song fantastically well.

This afternoon, the whole of Yr6 walked round to Burton Borough to have some French and Spanish taster lessons. Lessons were led by Mrs Irvine-Remson, Mrs Morgan and Mrs Reciogarcia. Thank you to the MFL department of Burton Borough for welcoming us in to the school and for providing some very enjoyable lessons.

Homework

This week for homework we would like the children to create a poster to raise the awareness of staying safe on the internet. Next Tuesday, it is ‘Safer Internet Day’ and with more and more children accessing the internet, we are hoping to create a display out of them.

Alongside the poster, the children will need to read three times to an adult.

If they could access times tables rock stars during the next week as well.

Finally, they will be coming home with a new set of spellings due to be tested next Friday (8th February).

Homework is due in either Monday 4th or Tuesday 5th of February.

Cold Weather Clothing!

Please can we remind parents and carers that whilst the weather is cold we appreciate children coming to school with coats, hats, scarfs, gloves etc. to keep them warm when they are able to get out at break and lunchtimes.

Please ensure all items of clothing bought into school are labelled with their name!
