Telford and Wrekin Art Competition for World Environment Day

Hi everyone! We hope you are all safe and well. We have received this message into school today from Telford and Wrekin Council and we’d love our school to get involved!

‘We’re celebrating World Environment Day this weekend with an art competition open to anyone under 11. We thought that due to the current circumstances in schools this might be the perfect opportunity to get the kids outside and thinking about the local area?

We want to see paintings, drawings, collages and tree rubbings! Whatever it is, it just needs to celebrate the abundance of nature and wildlife we have in the borough.

We would love to share the entries on our social media accounts too – so please let us know if that’s possible?

All entries will be in with a chance of winning a post lockdown guided tour of the beautiful Lightmoor Nature Reserve with their family.

The competition is open to children aged 11 and under, living in the borough.

Please send any artwork to us at mywildtelford@telford.gov.uk by the end of Monday 8 June.’

We have emailed all St George’s families this afternoon with a printable template for the competition which you might find helpful but you can use anything you like. If you do take part, please share your pictures with us too as well as sending it to the official entry email address above. Thank you.

Year 3 spellings for Set 1 and 2

Hi year 3,

These are your new spellings for this week, they will also be added to Spelling shed and I will be keeping an eye on the leader board! See if you can get your name up there this week.

The words this week end in -sion and the suffix -ous. There are also two words from your statutory spelling list for years 3 and 4.

Your spellings are:

mission

session

collision

poisonous

joyous

tremendous

profession

adventurous

strange

surprise

Some of these words are quite challenging so if you are not sure what they mean, you could look in a dictionary or ask an adult to help you. Also try putting them into a sentence to use them in context.

Well done, year 3!

Biscuit Parachutes!

Today, the year 3 and 4 children in school were set a challenge. They each had 1 digestive biscuit, 30cm string, 1 A4 piece of paper, 3 bits of sticky tape (10cm each) and some pritt stick. The task was to create a parachute for the biscuit which was dropped from 120cm without it breaking! These are the attempts and the results.

Can you do any better?
