Takeover day!

Date: 11th Jul 2024 @ 9:16pm

On Monday it was a very special day. The year six pupils took over the school and the penguins had three new teachers for the day. The maths, phonics, topic time and show and tell was planned to perfection and the penguins had a truly amazing day.

On Tuesday the penguins enjoyed going to church for the celebration assembly. They enjoyed spending some time with their buddies.

On Wednesday work began in our outdoor play area. An aeroplane, check in desk, tunnel to the aeroplane and airport cafe was opened by our very creative penguins. (If you are buying new suitcases this year and have a small suitcase that is no longer used please let us know)

Today a representative came into class from the 'Story Homes' building site. He gave us a talk about being safe near building sites and how builders stay safe in their work. We then had a surprise visit from the 'build a bear' The penguins enjoyed wearing the hard hats and high visibility jackets. In their back packs that the children were given today is information about a poster competition. Please take a look.

We enjoyed our assembly today by learning about the summer reading challenge at Longton library. The penguins were very excited about this.

Next week we will be talking about how we can look after our world. We will spend one morning in the community, litter picking. Please make sure coats (and summer caps) are sent each day.

Happy homework - the children have been given a summer scavenger hunt. If you are able to go for a short walk or spend some time in the garden to complete this I would be very grateful as this links with an activity planned for next week. (A huge thank you for the homework sent in from last week! It was so interesting and the children enjoyed sharing their information with the class. We had our globe and map out to spot the different countries).
