The children in Caterpillar Class have been exploring their emotions and thinking about how we all feel different emotions at different times. We read the story The Colour Monster and discussed the different feelings represented throughout the book. We then took our learning outdoors and used conkers from our outside area to create our own pictures and images. The children enjoyed getting creative while continuing to explore and express their emotions through art.
Help Our School Get More Funding! This Thursday (1st October), schools across the country will take part in the annual School Census Day. For every child who gets a school meal on Census Day, our school gets £505 of extra funding! We would like to encourage all families with children entitled to Universal Infant Free School Meal, to enjoy their free meal on Thursday 1st October. Don't forget that every child in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 is eligible for a free meal, as well as any pupils in KS2 who receive FSM. Our caterers have lots of lunchtime favourites on offer, including: Beef burgers Cheese & tomato pizza Jacket potato Jelly, fruit and chocolate brownies for dessert! The number of school meals ordered on this day has a significant impact on the amount of Government funding we receive, so this is a perfect opportunity to try our school canteen if you haven't done so before! Meals should be ordered in advance via Arbor, as usual.
