We were invited to participate in an art project linked to the 200th anniversary of the railway and how this invention has influenced the UK. Katie O and pupils have co-created artwork to be displayed on a mural. This will be exhibited at a celebration of 5 years of the Heart of England Community Rail Partnership taking place at the Royal Pump Rooms in Leamington Spa, and it will also travel around Coventry, Warwickshire and Solihull during 2025 for events when Railway 200 is being celebrated. The children have created some fabulous artwork for this.
We are delighted to announce that the Scholastic Travelling Book Fair will be n school from Wednesday 6th November until Wednesday 20nd November. Having a book shop in school is always an exciting event for the children– each class will have the opportunity to visit the book shop and the children will be able to browse and buy books with their classmates during the school day. A letter with more information will be sent home to parents shortly –money raised by the book fair enables school to purchase more books for class libraries. Thank you in advance for your support with these additional events
As part of our Harvest celebrations we will be collecting items for the warm welcome space in Earlsdon Library. The library is at the heart of our community and we would like to support them in helping people who appreciate a hot drink and a snack during the cold winter months. If you feel able to make a small donation, we will be collecting teabags, coffee, pot noodles, cuppa soups and individually wrapped biscuits from Monday 21st – Wednesday 23rd October; the children will deliver the donations to the library before half term. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
Our Pastoral Team enjoyed meeting parents this morning at our Coffee Morning!
Look out for the next event!
On the 24th September, we embarked on a long coach journey to Plas Dol-y-Moch. The journey started off brilliantly. Beautiful views were all around us and our school got smaller and smaller in the distance and we entered the countryside. Eventually, we reached the site and stared in amazement at where we would be staying for the next few nights. On our first morning, we sprang to our feet and hurried down to breakfast. In the common room, we were told our activities for the day and then we set off. The next few days consisted of mountain-climbing, mine exploring, beach fun, kayaking, orienteering and an independent walk. Some of us even did the famous Dol-y-Moch dive! There were also things like making our own lunch, tuck shop and a gift shop on the last night! Before we knew it, we were all packed and it was time to go. Dol-y-Moch was such an amazing experience and we all had so much fun. Written by Bronwen and Anika
We are very excited to be working with Millsy's Restaurant on a project that links our allotment, our careers programme and fundraising. A group of pupils in Years 4 and 5 are running a Pizza Night at Millsy's on 6 th November which will use food grown by pupils at our allotment. The children are working in four teams - marketing, graphic design, chefs and front of house. On Thursday the cooking team worked with a professional chef to start preparing sauce and toppings for the pizzas. Look out for posters from the graphic design team with details about how to book a table.
There has been a buzz of excitement around school this week. The Year 5 and 6 children have submitted their applications for various roles, short interviews have been held and some appointments have been made! Good luck to all of the children with their new positions of responsibility.
We were very honoured to be one of the first ten schools nationally to be accredited as a Royal Ballet and Opera Partner School. The presentation was made at the Royal Opera House this week. The accreditation recognises the long- standing collaboration we have with Royal Ballet and Opera and our commitment to ensuring that all children have access to a high quality arts curriculum.
We have been invited to participate in an RAF Glider Design competition. A small team from Year 5 will work alongside secondary school students at West Coventry Academy for the next month. After half term they will take part in a national competition which will put their gliders to the test! Good luck to the pupils involved in this exciting STEM project.
Everyone is welcome to our next coffee morning on Friday 18th October be?tween 9am-9.45am. Please come along and chat to Mrs Bloomfield and Mrs Clarke and find out how the pastoral team supports our children.
