Our winners are Taylor in year 6 and Isabella in year 2, well done!

Our runners up are Alexandra in year 3 and Arabella in year 1, well done!

Fantastic!

 

Well done!

Interfaith Week 2023

Our Interfaith Week resources have arrived! The children are invited to get creative to celebrate Interfaith Week this year. They can make a poster or artwork; research a faith and present the facts; make up a song, dance or story…or anything else that takes their fancy!Β  The aim is celebrate, learn, show respect and appreciate the value of diversity. Please hand in your entry to Mrs Holt, Mrs Swan or Mrs Probert by Monday 20th November. Winners will be celebrated and prizes given during Celebration Assembly. We can’t wait to see what you create!

We are very excited to announce our first ever Spelling Bee at St George’s!

On Wednesday 22nd November, we will be holding a Spelling Bee for children in KS1 (years 1 and 2), lower key stage 2 (years 3 and 4) and upper key stage 2 (years 5 and 6).

The event was introduced to the children on Monday and it is completely optional, but it would be fantastic to have lots of children take part! All of the children taking part will receive a certificate and the top 3 winners will receive a prize! Anyone that does not want to participate will still get to enjoy the event by being part of the audience!

If your child has expressed an interest in taking part, a copy of their words will be sent home so that they can practise. The words are also attached below. Please note that children will need to spell the words using letter names not sounds.

Good luck!

Book Fair! πŸ“šπŸ˜Š

We will be holding our annual book fair next week, from Monday 13th November to Wednesday 15th November, where there will be lots of fantastic books for children of all ages. There are hundreds of titles available, starting from just £2.99! All books sold will contribute towards earning free books for school 😊

The book fair will be open in the large hall after school on these days. Your child will have the opportunity to look around the book fair during the school time. If you are unable to attend the book fair in person, your child can bring a wish list home: you can then select a book, make an online payment and your child can collect their book from the fair the following day.

We look forward to seeing you there! 😊

Art Competition! πŸ–ŒβœπŸ–ŒβœπŸ–ŒβœπŸ–Œ

Our art competition is inspired by the artist Henry Fraser. We heard about him today during assembly.

Below is a link all about him.

The competition is to produce a piece of art, painting preferably, by holding the paintbrush in your mouth. You will have to persevere, it will be tricky but try your very best!

Entries have to be in after half term on the 6th November. Give them to Mrs Blair, Mrs Bridgwater or Mrs Probert.

Good luck!

 

Back to School!

We are looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday 6th September.

Please remember your water bottles and PE kits.

Well done Year 5!

What a fantastic church service to celebrate the wonderful year we have had. We are all so proud of each and everyone of you!

This year you have all achieved so much and it has been amazing watching you all grow and mature.

Keep up the good work in Year 6.

Judaism ✑️

This morning we took part in a virtual workshop with a lovely lady called Ruth. Ruth is Jewish and she taught us lots about Judaism. She showed us many religious artefacts, taught us how to say some words in Hebrew and spoke about the history of the religion. All of the children behaved impeccably and asked Ruth some excellent questions.
