Easter
Easter was celebrated in school with a special performance from
CRIBs called ‘Cracking Easter’, designed to remind children of the
Christian message at Easter. On Monday Rev. Charles from St Peter’s
Church, led our school assembly with an Easter theme. After which
Miss Fisher presented a set of new DVD’s presented to the school as
an Easter gift. These will be used to support literacy and media
education as well as useful for wet plays! The children were very
excited when they heard some of the titles. So many thanks to FOB
and parents for their continued support of their events. The proceeds
help benefit all our children in so many ways.

S E AL H O M E A C T I V I T I E S F OR PAR E NT S T O US E - GOOD TO BE ME!

Good to be me 9—Pamper cards
Think about something that would make you feel pampered and good. This might be reading a story, having tea in
bed, having a relaxing bubble bath, watching your favourite film or cartoon. Help each other to draw or write about
your favourite thing on your pamper card. The whole family might want to join in this activity.
When you want to use your pamper card, hold it up and say: ‘My pamper time.’ The other members of the family
should respect your pamper time and help you to make it special.
You can only use your pamper card once a week.

Please check that all your child’s school uniform, coats, packed lunch boxes etc have name labels in &
that you don’t have any items not belonging to you. Some children have mislaid items with names in.

ICT Training for Parents

Miss Cross recently organised for our parents a short ICT training session on how Espresso
is used in school and how it can also be used at home. It is a web based site that the school
subscribes to and is used throughout the school from Recep-
tion to Year 6. It provides up to
date news items suitable for
children; video clips and other
resources are available in all
curriculum areas.

Compliments
Well done to our Year 3 and 4 staff and children who recently went on school visits to
London Museums using public transport. Both year groups were complimented on their
exemplary behaviour by Museum and British Rail staff.
