Year 3 have been invited to write poems about caring for the world as home learning.
Here is a poem from Kiera in Lobsters
I went to the park and I picked up litter,
went for a run and I felt a lot fitter.
I walked to school because cars use fuel,
fuel pollutes the air and that’s not fair.
I`m going to plant some flowers
because they’ve got magic powers,
They bring bees to the yard,
try it…it’s not that hard.
Listen to what your family and friends say,
If you work together you`ll have a good day.
Recycling is great, awesome, cool…
put it in the right bin don’t be a fool, y’all.
By Kiera
On Tuesday 25th March, former British gymnast and Commonwealth medallist, Steve Frew attended school to lead a fitness circuit and assembly for the children.
Steve told the story of his career and how he had failed several times before winning Gold at the 202 Commonwealth games in Manchester. He left the children with few important messages: Never give up and Believe in yourself. The children were able to link his message to agent resilient and agent confident.
Steve also impressed the children with a handstand on the benches. But the best round applause was saved for an acrobatic superman dive off a small springboard over three children and Mr Emmett before landing with tucked forward roll.
The children and staff loved the morning and were inspired by Steve’s attitude and story.
We are thrilled to be able to share some more information about our upcoming Great Athletes event. We are excited to announce that the athlete who will be visiting us will be Steve Frew!
On the event day, all pupils will take part in a sponsored fitness circuit run by Steve, a terrific way to get all children excited about sport and realise that getting moving is really fun! Steve will then share his incredible sporting journey, a story of resilience and determination in a fun and interactive assembly. There will also be an opportunity to ask any burning questions in a Q&A session with their inspiring role-model at the end!
Fundraising for the event has begun now that the children have brought home a sponsorship form. The money raised for the event will help us to purchase new sports equipment and improve levels of physical activity in our school!
We are trying hard to encourage healthy eating including eating vegetables and fruit at lunchtime. It is quite hard work!
However, it is very important to establish healthy eating habits from a very young age.
You could help by downloading the Food Scanner app.
The NHS Food Scanner app brings food labels to life and helps families make healthier choices.
Simply scan the barcode to see how much sugar, saturated fat and salt is in your food and drink then choose one of the healthier swap suggestions. The app is part of a healthy eating campaign and
the ‘scan, swipe, swap’ take-home pack has plenty of resources to help encourage children to build healthier habits for life.

We also need your help teaching children to cut their food with a knife and fork please.
