Well done to all of the children for their fantastic artwork, that they completed during half term. 👏😊 They produced a variety of portraits based on the work of Lucian Freud.

Remembrance in Year 6 ❤

As part of Remembrance this week, the children in Year 6 read and discussed the meaning of the poem In Flanders Fields by John McCrae. Here are some examples of the work that they produced from this.

Spelling Bee at St George’s! 🐝

Spelling Bee Images – Browse 2,279 Stock Photos, Vectors, and Video | Adobe Stock

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! 📚😊

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! 🖌✏🖌✏🖌✏🖌

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

Below is a link all about him.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekZSuVqczxk

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!

Writing in Year 6 😊

This half term, the children in Year 6 have been working incredibly hard on their writing. This week, they have been utilizing all of the writing skills that they have developed during our topic of Diaries to create an imaginary diary entry based on the theme of ‘Moving House’. We are so very proud of the focussed approach that all of our Year 6 children have demonstrated. ❤

Our previous writing topic was Biography and Autobiography, which culminated in a piece of independent writing based on Edmund Hillary (who we learned about during our Geography topic of Mountains). Once again, the children worked extremely hard and produced some outstanding work. 👏👏👏

Digital Detectives in Year 6 🕵️‍♀️

As part of our Computing Topic of Online Safety, the children have been carrying out digital detective work! They investigated the digital footprint of various fictional candidates for a football business sponsorship deal, and made decisions on who the best candidate would be based on the trail that they had left online.
