Greek Dress up
Birch dressed up in Grecian clothing which was lots of fun! Birch really enjoyed seeing what the Grecian people had to wear.

Birch have created clay pots that resemble the Grecian pots that we have been looking at in our Topic lessons! We made our own pots out of clay then used different methods to create our own pots. Then we used paint to make sure they resemble a Grecian look.
Birch went to the forest school and we have been given some bulbs to plant in our plant pots. We had to put the right amount of compost in to the pots and enough water to make sure they grow! We cant wait to see our flowers in the coming months.
We had lots of fun on our trip to the Great North Museum! We tried on the armour that was super heavy and practiced our warrior pose!

Please find below a letter regarding Halloween film Friday, Parent’s Evening and Ofsted update.
Dear Parents and Carers
I am just writing to you to inform you of some upcoming events over the next few weeks. Firstly, as I’m sure you are aware we have recently had our Ofsted inspection on Monday and Tuesday this week so thank you very much to all parents and carers who completed the online comments via the Ofsted website. As soon as we have the official results we will publish them on the website and they will be on the official Ofsted website which we will provide a link to.
In other news the PTA have organised a Halloween film afternoon on the last day of term next week and will be providing a range of tasty treats while the pupils are watching the movie. Huge thanks to all of those parents involved for organising this. If PRIMARY only pupils want to wear Halloween costumes that would be fine but can we please request that pupils do not wear masks or face make-up as lots of our pupils can be very sensitive to this. Please send in the costume in a bag to be worn on the afternoon.
We will also be collecting goods, tinned and packet items only please, for Harvest Festival and all donations that we receive will be given to the Stanley Food Bank (PACT house). If anyone wants to drop these goods off or send them in with their children we would really appreciate this. This needs to be done by Tuesday 2nd November. We will be having a virtual Primary harvest celebration on the Wednesday and will post the video via class DOJO.
Thank you for all of the suggestions regarding the After School clubs and we hope to have these up and running as soon as possible after half term.
Parents Evening will be the 1st November and I’m delighted to say we will be having parents back into school. Primary parents will be able to visit their child’s class teacher and staff and Secondary pupils will be able to discuss progress with their child’s subject teacher in the school hall. Parents evening will begin at 3:20 and finish at 4:40 so please come along to discuss your child’s progress and raise any issues or concerns that you may have.
As ever, if you have any concerns or issues please get in touch via the usual channels.
Yours Sincerely
Lee Davis
Head of School
Fun in the mud! Football enrichment was a great success this afternoon, despite the muddy field. All students had a really fun time and got to work on their skills, followed by a match. Well done Football Stars!
Our class text at the moment is ‘The smartest giant in town’ by Julia Donaldson.
Hazel class have completed lots of different activities around the text.
We are currently working on different ways to retell the story and have created cave painting (linked to our topic of the stone age) showing the different parts of the story and this week we made the story into a play.
Each pupil played a different character and Miss Robson read the story.
Next week we are working on pupils having their own lines and more costumes.
