999 What's Your Emergency?

In the first week back to school we had a real emergency in year one and two.... some of the school trophies were stolen!  

Luckily we had some great detectives amongst the children who helped us to solve the mystery.  Together we searched for clues and collected evidence, this led to some fabulous questioning and the apprehension of  a suspect.  Phew! Thank goodness we didn't have to call 999!  

This was a lovely way to introduce this term's project and we do hope you enjoy looking at our photographs. Children will be learning all about the emergency services and how they keep us all safe.  

Article 19:  Every child has the right to be safe from harm.

Emerald - End of Year Thank You

This school year has flown by and I wanted to remember some of the amazing learning Emerald class have completed such as:

1. Brooklyn Drive walk in Geography
2. KS1 Christmas Production
3. Building 3D castles in DT
4. Sealife Centre trip
5. Clay models in DT
6. Sea animal sewing in DT

.... and many many more.

As a class you have been a privilege to teach and I wish you all the very best next year in your new class with your new teacher.

Thank you also to all parents who have contributed to their child's learning out of school with homework, reading and additional learning tasks. Thank you also for your kind gifts both at Christmas and this week.

Have a fabulous summer break and stay safe.

Mr Purvis

DOUBLE CHAMPIONS!

Congratulations to both the Year 5/6 football team who have won the league after a hard fought season and final match against Grove Wood in which they won 2-0 and also the High 5 Netball team who stormed the league all year.  Both teams have been brilliant all season and thoroughly deserve the accolades they receive. You have done the school proud! Congratulations to all involved.

Project Work

A huge thank you to Dayah in Emerald class and her family who spent the 'snow days' recently creating a magnificent castle model complete with wooden huts, soldiers, ladders, drawbridge and tower. Dayah has since proudly showed the model in a class show and tell session and has been awarded a teacher certificate and 3 house points for her efforts. Well done Dayah!

Colouring Competition

Congratulations to Conor from Amethyst class who won his age category in the Rayleigh Town Council colouring competition! He was very proud to collect his prize at the Rayleigh Lights switch on. Well done, Conor!

Amethyst Geography Fieldwork

Today, Amethyst Class went down Brooklyn Drive looking at the different houses as part of our project on houses and homes. 
We collected information on whether the houses were bungalows, dormer bungalows or houses; whether they were detached, semi-detached or terraced and whether they had lawns and garages.
We used this to help in our recount writing back in class.

Pudsey Visits Down Hall!
