The 1st March celebrates St David's Day, the anniversary of the death of the patron saint of Wales. This day also marked Shrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Day in England, as pancakes use up all the rich foods before Lent. Elsewhere it is known as Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday), and is a time for carnivals and fairs.
Our Coventry Young Ambassadors joined with 20 other Coventry schools for an action-packed training day. They are now looking forward to representing the school and the city at some of the major events that will be taking place this Summer and beyond.
We were very pleased to take a group of pupils to see Romeo and Juliet at the Royal Opera House during half term. Our pupils and staff had a fantastic day and the children were a great credit to our school. It was a super experience!
Thank you for helping us to support the 25th World Book Day. The children thoroughly enjoyed visiting and buying a book from the book sale and their outfits looked wonderful on Thursday – we also had the opportunity to discuss lots of new vocabulary! In addition the children enjoyed their class visit to Earlsdon Library.
This is a session for Parents/Carers of Children or Young People with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND). The session offers a great way to meet other parents/carers who may be in a similar situation, and an opportunity to share with others in a friendly, non-judgemental environment, together with a member of staff from SENDIASS.
To book your place on this session please contact SENDIASS on iass@coventry.gov.uk or TEL: 024 7669 4307.
This week we were very pleased to be working with our Commonwealth Games partner schools to plant two legacy forests. This is part of a Severn Trent project to plant a forest in the West Midlands for every Commonwealth country. On Monday pupils planted the New Zealand forest at Corpus Christi Primary School. On Tuesday our Young Ambassadors planted the Zambia forest at Moseley Primary School. We were delighted to be joined by the Lord Mayor and officials from the Zambian High Commission.
As we have a staff training day on Monday 28th February, school will reopen for children on Tuesday 1st March. We hope you have a happy and healthy half term.

World Book day – Thursday 3rd March 2022
We are looking forward to celebrating World Book Day in school with a range of activities during the week beginning 28th February. We are thrilled that we continue to have a strong relationship with Earlsdon Library and that all of the children will have the opportunity to visit our local library during this week and enjoy a wide range of books. In addition, we will be inviting the children to come to school dressed as a word of their choice and to participate in and enjoy a bring and buy book sale.
Bring and Buy Book sale
Thank you to everyone who has donated books for the bring and buy book sale. We would like to be able to offer books to all age groups so please hunt out any books suitable for ages 4-11 years – thank you. Each class will have the opportunity to visit the pre-loved book sale during the week beginning 28th February. Each book bought will cost 50p; a great way to encourage your child to read for pleasure without spending too many pennies!
Dressing up on Thursday 3rd March
We are inviting all children to come to school dressed as a word on Thursday 3rd March. Vocabulary is the focus of this day; rather than book characters or story characters we would love children to dress up as a word. For example, a child could dress up as an ‘aquarium’ and have fish attached to them. Another child might want to be their favourite superhero and their word could be ‘strong’ or ‘heroic’. Other examples children have chosen in the past include dressing up as a ‘calculator’ and or as ‘illuminate’. We cannot wait to see the children dressed up with their word attached to them. Thank you for your ongoing support and for making World Book Day a special event in school.
| Our ‘Changemakers’ met with Paralympian Liz Johnson for a leadership training session. She was especially interested to find out about the sports club that they have been leading under the supervision of Mr Gascoyne. |
