• Harvest Celebration Assembly

  Fri 15 Oct 2021

  On Friday morning we celebrated Harvest with a whole school Assembly and collected food donations for York Food Bank. For our EYFS pupils this was their first assembly experience. They came in sensibly and delivered their donations to the school councillors and then sat beautifully at the front of the hall. It was lovely to see the joy on their faces as the other pupils shared their Harvest Song or Poem. Beech class sang beautifully about 'Conkers', Sycamore Class shared their fun 'Beans' song, Willow Class did a fabulous job of reciting their Harvest poem and Oak and Birch Class sang a Harvest Song together which didn't quite go to plan but we all enjoyed just the same.

   

  As usual our parent community did not disappoint and there was an array of food gifted to the Food Bank. Thank you so much I'm quite sure that your generous donations will be gratefully received.

• Walk to School Week

  Mon 11 Oct 2021

  This week is national walk to school week and we would love as many of you as possible to take part. We encourage all forms of ‘Human Power’ so cycling and scooting are included as well as walking.

  Children love walking and cycling to school. It helps keep them fit and healthy. Reducing the number of cars makes the outside of school safer and cuts harmful air pollution which children are more susceptible to. Of course we realise some of our families have to get to school by car but maybe you could consider parking a little further away from school and walking the last few minutes?

   

  What’s next?

  All you need to do is encourage your child(ren) to cycle, walk or scoot to school on as many days as possible during the event, and join them on their way.

• Beech Class Sharing Assembly

• Big Talk - Growing Up Safe

  Tue 28 Sep 2021

  As part of our RSE (Relationships and Sexual Education) Curriculum Hazel delivered a workshop teaching the children about Growing Up Safe. The children learnt about identifying safe situations and those which may be risky. They were also taught the correct body part names using the scientific words and the difference between good and bad touches. Hazel also covered how each family is different, including those with same sex parents. Year 2 pupils went on to learn about boundaries within friendships and what they should and shouldn’t be watching online. Staff felt the messages delivered were clear and important for all pupils.
