FROGGY STARS - STRIVE -TEAM - AMBITION - RESILIENCE = SUCCESS
Summer Term – 28.05.23
This week we have completed our science learning, throughout the topic the children have loved exploring our school grounds, our younger pupils are now able to identify many plants within our school grounds, whilst our Y2/3 pupils have started thinking about how they can take care of our environment by planting new things. If you would like to continue this learning over half term, check out the activities available here: https://www.transpenninetrail.org.uk/welcome-to-our-childrens-page/ All classes will be applying this learning after half term as they think about the difference that can be made in school and beyond.
This half term our Y2 and 6 pupils have completed their SATs. We are extremely proud of the effort they have put in and the level of resilience they have shown when tackling tricky questions. Special mention to our staff, who ensured our children were not phased by these assessments. Following the half term break, our Y4 pupils will be tackling the Multiplication check, whilst our Y1 children will be completing their phonic screening.
Our menu has now been updated for the Summer term. Please check it out on the school website or the MCAS app. Please can we ask all families to make their selections for the Summer term. With the rise in food costs, we would urge all EYFS/KS1 pupils and families in receipt of benefit related free school meals to take up the offer. Alongside our meal choices we offer sandwiches, pasta and jacket potatoes. If your circumstances have changed and you feel you may be entitled please contact the office.
We have lots of fun activities planned for the summer term, including our whole school dance, our annual sports week and a whole school picnic to celebrate Eid Ul Adha. Our younger pupils also have a special minibeast visit planned, whilst our Y5 pupils will be going on their first residential! Following the success of the SATs our Y6 pupils are already working on their own Shakespeare performance. Over the last 2 weeks they have been exploring Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, they have explored the different scenes and are now polishing their own performances. These will be showcased at the Lory on Wednesday 5th July. This is an amazing opportunity for our young people and will create lasting memories.
Our after school clubs finish on Friday 7th July, during our sports week there will be opportunities for families to try out the different sports we have available after school. Mr Wright is currently putting a programme together and these will be available to book through the MCAS App. Further details to be announced.
As we prepare for the new school year, please can we remind all parents of expectations regarding uniform All children are required to adhere to our uniform policy, which includes school shoes. We have noticed an increase in children wearing expensive items to school, these are not permitted. Please can we also remind parents that only our school PE kit is permitted on PE days. Details of our uniform can be found here: https://floweryfieldschool.org.uk/parents/school-uniform
Wishing you all a relaxing and enjoyable half term break.
