This Week

Welcome back to school! The children have settled in really quickly and are working hard already. This week house points were won by Finches.

On Monday Year 1 will be visiting Marshall's Arm. Wellies and waterproofs and a spare pair of shoes please.

On Wednesday we would like to welcome parents into school for a first aid course – please see separate mail for further information. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn about how to treat minor injuries in the home.

Our school nurse has a drop in session on Wednesday morning from 8.30 until 10.00.

There is a Bike Right session for Year 5 on Thursday. You will receive an email if your child is on the course.

Finally on Friday we return to our class assemblies. This week is the turn of Mrs Holden’s Year 1 class. Families are welcome to attend and join the children in the classroom afterwards to show off their work.

November & December 2022

Date: 20th Dec 2022 @ 9:54pm

Wow! What a busy half term we've had! We started the term with bonfire toast and edible fireworks to celebrate Bonfire Night.

Then the children took part in creating a poppy field to show their respect on Remembrance Day. We can "Be Respectful".

Next, we joined in with The Children in Need "Spotacular" by designing spotty biscuits.

The World Cup started and Darwin's Den joined in with the football fever by making flags that supported the teams competing - England was a popular choice.

Then before we knew it, it was December, Yay Christmas!

Mrs Macaulay led a class in "design a paper snowflake" and although we all followed the same instructions each and every one was different!

The children created baubles to decorate our tree - it may be small but it was beautiful.

Christmas cards were made and there was even a Christmas themed scavenger hunt.

Phew!! I don't know about the children by I know myself and all the Darwin's Den team need a rest!

Have a Merry Christmas and we look forward to seeing you all in the new year.
