If your child would benefit from a social story about the changes to our routine next week, it is attached below.
The children will also be shown a timetable of the day each morning so they know what their routines will be.
Next Week is a great opportunity for our children to learn about neurodiversity and inclusion.
If you have any questions about any of the events happening please do get in contact with a member of teaching staff or contact Mrs Hughes and Mrs Elliot.
We had an amazing day for World Book Day. It was brilliant to see the children reading and getting excited about books!
There were some amazing costumes.
We were lucky enough to have a drama workshop with Ms O who taught us about characterisation.
We also wrote, directed, and costumed a play based on the book, How to be a Lion by Ed Vere.
With only a few weeks to go, please read for more info.
Today, was the RAPS final of the Speaker competition. Iris represented Team Cialis speaking to the school about waste. She gave some brilliant reasons and statistics to try and influence our thinking about the things we buy.
She didn't get to the Viking final this time, but there's always a chance for her to win next time!
From all of Team Cialis, well done Iris, we are proud of you!

This week has been Personal Development Week. We have been learning about Respect, healthy boundaries, what to do if we feel unsafe and what to do if we feel unsafe. We also learnt about how the relationships we have are different depending on the people; for example our relationship with our friends will be different to that with our teacher or with our parents. We learnt that in all our relationships we should protect and be kind to everyone. In this learning we sang Billy Bragg's song 'I will be your shield.'
World Book Day is on Thursday 7th March! We are asking children to bring in their favourite book from home to share with their peers. Children will be asked to describe why this book is their favourite and recommend it to children in the class. They are encouraged dress up as a character from the book they bring, or they could choose to come in clothes they like to read in, but this is not essential.
During the day we will be completing lessons around 'How to be a Lion' by Ed Vere and taking part in exciting workshops throughout the day. Children will also receive a book token to spend in a local bookstore.
Welcome back to Term 4! This term will be exciting with lots of activities planned for the children.
Our PE days will be Monday when we have Outdoor PE.
In Topic, we will be studying Food for Thought. This is a really intersesting topic about the food we eat, how we digest it, and all about our teeth and the teeth of animals.
