Newsletter Welcome!

Welcome to our weekly newsletter where we share and celebrate news, events and achievements that have happened in the week. This is just a small selection of news so please do head to our website to read about more!

French Breakfast Club

We had a lot of happy children at Breakfast Club before half term. Madame Sohier hosted a delicious French themed breakfast, with help from all the Breakfast Club staff. The children had the chance to read French magazines and play French games, too. Tres Bien!

2M’s trip to Pizza Express!

In Design and Technology, Year 2 have been learning all about pizzas. For our final lesson we became chefs and got to make our own pizza. We learnt about the ingredients and each part of the pizza, we tasted different toppings and cooked our pizzas in the oven. Then, we ate our pizza’s! It was so much fun. 🍕

World Book Day in Year 6! 📚

We had a wonderful time celebrating all things reading for World Book Day today! We’re sure that you’ll agree that our Year 6 children did a fabulous job of getting involved in the joy of reading! 😊

World Book Day! 📚👸🤴🏰

Year 2 had a wonderful day celebrating World Book Day. They did lots of activities centered around their author, ‘Mini Grey,’ and her books. These activities included writing the next chapter of ‘Traction Man is Here,’ acting out the circus scene from ‘Biscuit Bear,’ and writing a persuasive letter advocating for planting more trees, inspired by the book ‘The Last Wolf.’

As part of the day’s events, Year 2 also took part in some buddy reading with Year 6 students. They had a great time sharing stories with their older classmates!

World Book Day Gift 🎁📚❤

On Monday, Miss Bibi led an assembly with the KS1 children to introduce Reading Focus Week.

To celebrate World Book day, Paisley in Mrs Bridgewater’s class made Miss Bibi her very own book! She went down to see Miss Bibi and gave her the book- Miss Bibi was so impressed! She gave Paisley 2 stickers and took a photograph with her.

Thank you for my lovely gift, Paisley!

World Book Day in Nursery!

The nursery children and staff had a fabulous day dressing up today! We have shared many stories, discussed our favourite books and been to our ‘buddy reading’ class in year 5.

Year 3 World Book Day

We have been so impressed this morning with the effort that everyone has made for ‘World Book Day’, we have had a lovely morning so far discussing our favourite books and sharing stories with the children in reception!

Nursery love Squiggle Whilst You Wiggle!

Created by Shonette at Spread the Happiness, Squiggle Whilst You Wiggle uses neurological and physiological movements to create marks. Each week in nursery we do a new squiggle action to develop our abilities. The children absolutely love following the movements with their flappers and have lots of fun!

Y5 Wizard of Oz

This morning, we had a lovely trip to Holy Trinity Academy to watch their performance of ‘The Wizard of Oz’. We all had a wonderful time and the children behaved beautifully. All of the children spotted past St George’s pupils which made it extra special. A huge thank you to HTA for the invite!

Visit from an Artist

This term, the children are looking at Chinese Art. Today, we have had a visit from a Chinese Artist.

The children enjoyed learning about different styles of Chinese art and had a go at Chinese dancing.

The children have had a fantastic morning with Grace. Here are some photos.

Year 1 – Letters to Nepal 💌

As writers, our Year 1 children have been busy writing letters for Mrs Sixsmith to take with her to Nepal to deliver to the children who live there.

Year 3 Author visit

Yesterday, as part of Reading Focus Week the year 3 children were visited by the local author Roy Bradshaw.

He shared his book ‘Konk the White Crocodile’ and the children then created models of the main character.

World Book Day in Reception

We have had a brilliant day today dressing up for World Book Day. We have coloured bookmarks, shared our favourite books with our friends, read with our buddies in Year 3 and even did ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ yoga! Here are some of the photos of our day.
