Golden Coin Winners

The children were extremely excited this term when the reading shed was opened. They have all enjoyed spending time in there and I’m particularly proud of how well the children are looking after it. Thank you to my reading ambassadors and Rosie for making sure it’s open and closed every break time.

Because of our new reading shed; I felt it was important for the children to all have access during the playtime’s so Reading Rocks has been outside. They children have enjoyed using this on a Friday and adding a golden ticket to the post box.

It’s been a short term but a lot of golden tickets have still been posted. Well done to Nightingale for winning the golden coin this term.

Congratulations to all the children that have won a book from the vending machine this term. We are all extremely proud of you.

I am excited that Miss Amett has organised a Book Club for KS1 after school starting next term. Thank you for signing up. I am excited to be involved with this next term. Have a lovely half term, keep safe and keep reading. 📖

Term 4 2024-25

Our celebration of World Book Day this year was just lovely. The children all came to school in their comfy clothes. They enjoyed visiting each class throughout the morning to learn about 4 Authors. In Dahl class they looked at Roald Dahl. The children designed their own Wonka bars and learnt about his famous story ‘Charlie and the chocolate factory’ As they left Dahl class each child was given a gift of chocolate. Thank you, Miss Cannon! In Nightingale Hiba Noor was the Author and the children soon found out about her love of science. During the session Mrs Peach carried out some experiments with the children and read one of her beautiful books. In Darwin Miss Illingworth introduced the author Joseph Coelho and in Franklin Miss Cox, Oliver Jeffers. During the afternoon the children were able to practice their performance poetry and then we finished the day with reading with parents. Thank you to everyone that came along during the afternoon. Please scan the code to watch Nightingale and Darwin children’s performance.

The weekend books bag has been busy this term, halfway through I needed to top up the hot chocolate! This is just wonderful, and I love receiving all your photos so, thank you.

The winners of the most golden tickets this term is Franklin. Well done.

Reading rocks invited Dahl this term to the library on a Friday but the weather turned so nice we went outdoors! Thank you to my librarians and reading ambassadors for running this club and reading to any child across the school during lunchtime.

Wishing you all a lovely Easter holiday.
