We have seen lots of happy, smiley faces this week! We have been impressed with how polite and courteous lots of children across the school have been. Well done to the children for showing such beautiful manners.

Mr Appleby saw some fantastic reading skills in Dragonflies this week. The children were using their sounds really well and were excited to talk about their topic about dragons.

Mr Appleby & Mrs Griffiths, Assistant Headteachers

Our space lunch was a huge success.

Thank you to Mr Porter and his team

for cooking an amazing meal and to

our Midday Assistants for creating

the space atmosphere .

WHEATSHEAF WEEKLY / KIDS ZONE

We still need a new name for this weekly newsletter and kids page. Please let

your teacher know your ideas before next Friday.

Hello, my name’s Charlie and I

want to create an extra page on

our weekly newsletter written

by the kids. If you have any

ideas for this, come and talk to

me in 5W.

Hi, my name’s Olivia and I have a brother with

special needs. I go to a club called Kool Carers

which really helps me.

If you have a sibling with additional needs, I’d

like to help you. I’ve put together this Power-

point on our school website Hidden Disabili-

ties.

If you’d like to talk to me, I’m 6F’s school

councillor, so just come and find me.

Mrs Champion welcomed the newest recruits to the Anti-Bullying Ambassador team this morning to their first meeting and looks forward to working with them this year and listening to all their fantastic ideas!
