Secondary school open days for September 2018 intake
It is important you make the right choice when choosing a secondary school for your child. To help you make your decision, schools are holding open days over the next few months. These are a great opportunity to meet staff and pupils, view facilities and find out more.
SCIENCE WEEK ACTIVITIES
As part of our new R.E. topic, Community, we invited Mrs McNee to come to talk to the children about her volunteering role at Foodbank. The children prepared questions to ask her to find out why she chooses to give up her time to help others, how she helps out, how people in the community can support the charity and the general help the charity offers to families in need.
Next week, the Year 5 children will have the opportunity to take part in a 2 day Bikeability programme.
5C – Mondays 23rd and 30th January
5M- Tuesdays 24th and 31st January
Children are to come to school wearing a tracksuit, trainers, waterproof coat and they must bring gloves and as they will be outside most of the day. Children will be required to wear a helmet throughout the training.
Bikeability is today’s cycle training programme. It’s like cycling proficiency, but better! It’s about gaining practical skills and understanding how to cycle on today’s roads. Bikeability gives everyone the skills and confidence for all kinds of cycling.
Details and consent forms have been sent home and we thought it would be a good idea to get your bike out over the weekend to make sure it is in good working order. (brakes, gears, tyres etc).
Bikeability trained cyclists receive a badge and a certificate in recognition of the level they achieve. The certificate also includes areas for further practice noted by the instructor.
