Talking about worries.

We hope you’re all enjoying the sunshine. It can be all too easy at the moment to let our worries take over. It can be difficult to know how to talk to young children about what is happening and reassure them. We have found a resource to help you talk to your children below.

Stay safe all.

Heroes Art Project

Miss Mogg has set you all a task to create a piece of art work based on the title ‘Heroes’. You can make anything you like and then send in a photo of your finished masterpieces to admin@stgeorgesschool.org.uk by Wednesday 29th April. Only artwork emailed in will be included in the finished film we will put together- anything shared directly on Facebook will be celebrated but won’t be added to the film.

We can’t wait to see what you create! Here is a photo of Miss Mogg’s Hero art.

Facebook Live Session – Friday 24th April

https://www.facebook.com/StGeorgesPrimaryTelford/live/

We would like to invite families to join us for a live quiz tomorrow at 10am hosted by Mr Porteous.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL CHILDREN MUST BE SUPERVISED BY AN ADULT THROUGHOUT THE QUIZ! No children should have their own Facebook account or be accessing our school’s page unsupervised!

All you will need to participate is plain paper and something to write with.

Dress Code: we would like all participants to be dressed in their smartest clothes. We would love parents/guardians to send in photos of families dressed in their finest, as we will be awarding prizes for the best dressed participants. Prizes will be awarded at a later date.

There will be no prizes for answering the most questions correctly, as one of the aims of the quiz is to make parents/guardians aware of some of the key facts which the children could be learning at home.

There will be a range of questions suitable for children of all ages. The questions which the children are unable to answer themselves will obviously need some support from adults.

Overall we hope to have a fun time and raise everyone’s spirits. However, we also hope that parents/guardians will quickly become aware of what general knowledge questions their children can practise at home and research following the quiz in future weeks.

We also hope to have members of our staff participating in the quiz, as we want our school’s community to have a positive memory to look back on in future years.

See you tomorrow – dressed in your finest 

St George’s Day Work

Don’t forget we would like to see work this week from our children about St George and St George’s Day. Children can do anything they like- writing, pictures, designing a dragon, etc. Anything! Please see the previous post for more details. Well done to Ronnie and Reggie who have already sent in a photo of a picture they have done together at home.

Food donations needed again please.

We are really pleased that a growing number of families have received food parcels in the past week. We now know that we will need more donations coming in in order to continue this service to our school community. If you feel you are able to contribute, please drop any donations in the box which will be outside the main school office each day from 8am-3.30pm. Any food and toiletry donations would be gratefully received. Many thanks for your continued support- we know your help with this has made a huge difference to some of our families already.

New work- My Home and the weather

Good Morning to our fabulous nursery children and parents.

We know that things are a little odd at the moment, we do hope you are staying safe at home and doing lots of fun things together with the people you love.  Miss Whittaker, Miss Lees, Mrs Bowyer and Miss Tong all miss you very much and cannot wait to see and hear about the fun things you have been doing.

We thought over the next couple of weeks you might like to do some work about your home and the weather. We have popped some ideas at the bottom of the page for you to have a little go at, you can do as much or as little as you like. There are also a couple of activities on the 2do section of Purple Mash, that can even be seen by a teacher to comment on.

The most important thing for you to do is have fun, smile and stay safe at home, this is our biggest challenge yet in nursery but we know we can do it as a team, we are all sending you hugs, smiles and happiness.
