Charity Music Concert

Well done to all the children who performed this week at our charity music concert in Church. We were treated to fantastic performances from both of our choirs, ocarina club, recorder club and children who learn to play music instruments through Telford Music Service. We also enjoyed guest appearances from students at TPS secondary school and a dance by our visiting Nepali teachers.
Together, we raised almost £400 for our two charities of the year which are Prevent All and Classrooms in the Clouds. It was a great event supported by our parents and carers so thank you to everyone who bought tickets and came along on the day.

Sister Schools Teacher Exchange Visitors From Nepal

We are thrilled to be having four teachers from Nepal join us in school on Monday for two weeks through our work with Classrooms in the Clouds. They are coming to learn how we teach in the UK to take ideas back to their own schools in the Himalayas.
While they are here, they will also teach us about their schools and about life in Nepal. They will also be performing a traditional Nepali dance at our charity concert in Church on Wednesday 21st June. You can buy tickets via Parent Pay for this concert.
In the Easter holidays 2024, a number of our staff are going out to Nepal to visit schools there as part of our teacher exchange Sister Schools programme. (Please note, this is during the school holidays and staff fund this trip themselves- school does NOT pay towards this).

Volunteer Gardener Needed

Can you spare anytime to help us keep on top of our gardening areas in school? Do you know someone who maybe is retired and would be happy to volunteer some time to us?
It could be just an hour a week or a couple of hours a month. As much or as little time as you can spare! This wouldn’t be to work with the children to do it, simply helping us to keep the garden areas looking lovely.
Please contact us at school if this is something you think you might be able to help with. Thank you!

Year 6 Spelling Bee

On Monday we held our Year 6 Spelling Bee (spelling competition). What a fantastic effort by everyone who took part! All of the children who chose to participate did really well, and we were very proud of them all.
A big well done goes to the rest of the Year 6 children too who were a brilliantly supportive audience!
The three finalists (see photo) had some VERY tricky words to spell!

30 Days Wild

Letters have been emailed out re 30 Days Wild. This is run by The Wildlife Trusts and as a school this is the 3rd year we have taken part.

There are 30 activities for you to partake in – one for each day during the month of June.

Below are the first 10 activities and I will post more as we go through June –

GO ON A SENSORY ADVENTURE – make it a mission to find one thing in nature you can see, hear, touch and smell.

. FIND A SPIKY LEAF – feel different textured leaves. Is it smooth and soft against your skin or rough and spiky?

. SMELL WILDFLOWERS AND HERBS – enjoy the delicate aroma of summer flowers and herbs.

. LISTEN TO WILD SOUNDS – can you hear bird song, crickets in the grass, buzzing bees or wind in the trees?

. HUG A TREE – trees give us clean air and store carbon, helping with climate change – we need to remember to love them back!

. WILDLIFE MEDITATION – take 10 minutes of mindfulness in nature – breathing exercises are encouraged!

. PLAY AN OUTDOOR GAME – think stuck in the mud, hide and seek or even a game of rounders.

. HAVE A PICNIC – enjoy a meal outdoors.

. TREASURE HUNT – create a list of things you want to find on a treasure hunt and head out for an hour to see how much you can cross off.

. MAKE A SPLASH – no sunshine? no problem! Splash in a puddle and shake your hips or arms in a rain shower.

Post any photos on Facebook or email them to school.

Happy wilding 😊
