Palm Crosses

This week, your child will be bringing home a palm cross, which has been kindly provided by St Georges Church. Every year, at our Easter Service, the children receive this symbol that represents Jesus’ entry in to Jerusalem. Unfortunately, due to Covid 19, we are unable to congregate in the church this year. But rest assured, we will be celebrating Easter in school, in our bubbles, instead!

Roman Mosaics

The children have been working hard on their mosaics. They had a lot of fun making them!

The Colours of the Church Year

This fantastic display in the hall keeps us all up to date with the Christian calendar. As Lent draws to an end, the children and staff are looking forward to our Easter Celebrations in school!

✨STARS OF THE WEEK ✨

As our latest round of home school comes to an end, we wanted to thank you all for your hard work – children, parents and carers!  You have done a tremendous job!

Our Stars of the Week, from home and school, are:

🎇 Grace      🎇 Chloe-Ann     🎇 Liberty

Dear God,

We thank you for the power of a good book to transport us to new places and to give us new experiences.
We thank you for the creativity of authors and illustrators in creating books for us to enjoy.

Virtual Assembly- Why should we plant trees?

This is our assembly theme for the week.

We have also enjoyed watching forest clips on BBC Winterwatch again, to support our mental health and wellbeing.

Our Bible story is Jesus and Zacchaeus (Luke 19) which is about a tax collector who hides in a tree to be able to see Jesus.

11.2.21 Literacy

Today, you will become a Roman soldier!

Using your research from yesterday, we would like you to put yourself in the shoes of a Roman soldier in Britain and write a diary entry as that soldier.

Remember to

  • write in the first person (use I and we)
  • describe the jobs that you have been doing (collecting taxes, guarding forts, marching, training, fighting)
  • talk about some of the objects that you have (armour, sandals, money, food, weapons)
  • include some thoughts and feelings (E.G. Britain was cold and they were far from home)

You could start like this:

Dear Diary, 

Today has been another typical day in my legion. 

Virtual Assembly – Why do people choose to climb mountains?

This week, we have been thinking about the comfort and challenges that nature can provide.

Have watched any of the BBC Winterwatch clips?  They are fantastic for boosting mental health and wellbeing, especially for people who can’t get out into nature easily. See for yourself, using this link:
