Sutton CP win the trophy at the South Craven

Primary Maths Challenge 2018

For the second year in a row our team of 8

Year 3 and 4 children have won first place

at the South Craven Maths Challenge

Event. The event, which took place on Wednesday 2nd May after school, was

organised by the maths department at South Craven and feeder primary schools

were invited. There were about 8 teams from local schools, each with 8 pupils

from Years 3 and 4. Our team - Oscar, Oliver, Annabel, Matthew, Adam, Maisy,

Mya and Hamilton – worked exceptionally well together and gained enough points

to come first. There were three challenges involving problem solving, arithmetic

skills and construction skills and the team excelled in then all. Our tower of

straws, held together with paper clips, reached a very impressive height of 1m

26cm! Mrs Howes and Mrs Fletcher were both very impressed with the enthu-

siasm and commitment shown by the team and said they were a delight to work

with. Well done team!

Get ready for the weekend!

You can now change your book after school on Fridays as our Library will be open until 4pm

Our library books are available to borrow for 3

weeks, they can be renewed for a further 3

weeks, if required. Then they must be returned and scanned back into the li-

brary. Until they are your child is accountable for the book and no one else is able

to read it.

Sadly a lot of our books, borrowed prior to the new library system being installed

are still missing in action! We know how easy it is for library books to get easily

get mixed up in your own collection at home – please check through your shelves

at home for any books with the school stamp on the inner page and return them so

other children can enjoy them.

A basket for anonymous returns will be available in the Library

Thank You—Mrs Broughton

By having regular conversations about the news you are

able to share a whole range of topics and together make

more sense of different events, issues and stories.

There are no rules or script to follow but you might want

to watch, listen, read and discuss the news selectively.

Some significant news stories can be frightening and you

will need to consider what your child can cope with and

whether they are developmentally ready to understand

certain events. For example, you might decide to listen to

the news rather than watch it as there may be images

they might find upsetting.

Talking about the major headlines of the day and current

affairs is important so that children grow up as global

citizens but it’s important too to share a variety of fun

and exciting news stories from the worlds of sport, en-

tertainment, music, science, etc. as well as local news

closer to home.

Here are some quick tips:

Initiate discussions about the news using the Picture News resources.

Read and watch some news stories together from different sources.

Find out what your child knows about the news and explore their understanding.

Listen to what your child says and value their opinions.

Explain simply and in a way that makes sense to them.

Promote a habit of enquiry and make asking questions your child’s default setting.

Help your child to spot fake news and how to fact-check.

Develop a news habit by accessing the news daily.

Defuse bad news and offer reassurance.

Protect your child from distressing and disturbing news.

Avoid repeated viewings of the same news event.

Monitor your child’s exposure to the news.

Discussing the news of the day doesn’t have to be formal but can be done naturally and casually in everyday mo-

ments such as on the way to school or preparing a meal.

The important thing is to keep the conversation going about the news and make it a feature of your daily lives.

By working together we can help children become critical consumers of the news so that they are ‘news savvy’, ar-

ticulate and confident citizens.

Dear wonderful Year 6 pupil,

As you know, the SATs tests will soon be here from Monday 14th May until Thursday 17th

May. There are two more school days before you get the chance to do what you have

been preparing for all year! Here’s what you will be doing that week…

Monday 14th May English Grammar and spelling test

Tuesday 15th May English Reading test

Wednesday 16th May Maths Arithmetic test and Reasoning test

Thursday 17th May Maths Reasoning test

Your parents have been sent a letter too, so that your teachers can work with them to make sure you

are given plenty of support and to help to make sure you can do your best in these tests.

How can YOU help yourself to do your best in the tests?

Go to bed at a sensible time each night –

sensible breakfast so you don’t have a rumbling tummy in the middle of the tests.

Come to school each day on time and with a positive and determined attitude.

Concentrate and do your best in EVERY SINGLE TEST. You only get one go at it – make sure it’s

your very best.

Work quickly and carefully to finish each test and don’t make unnecessary mistakes.

Spend time enjoying yourself, doing what children do and NOT worrying about them!

Some things you need to remember… The SATs tests are very important for your future. You need to

remember that your best is wonderful and is good enough for yourself, your parents and your school. You

are well prepared for these and simply need to try hard to remember and use the things you have

learned so far. Remember that the SATs tests only tell us two things about you: how good you are at

Maths and how good you are at English! They don’t tell us that you are (for example) wonderful artists,

fantastic sports people and team players, enthusiastic scientists or that you are kind and thoughtful

people who are fun to be with; qualities that make you who you are! Remember to try hard – they are im-

portant - - but remember this: there is so much more to you than SATs results! Good luck!

From Miss D and your whole school family xxx
