SCHOOL NEWS & Key Dates
PIRATE DAY
Elmers and Tiddlers had a fantastic Pirate Day before half term!
We were so excited to spot Captain Red Beard on camera delivering his special coins in his treasure chest for us to discover. The children had lots of fun using their maps to discover the treasure.
We enjoyed boat races, pirate role play, and listening to Tiddler's amazing pirate song on stage!

YEAR 1 WOODLAND WEDNESDAY
Despite the rainy weather, Year 1 embraced the outdoors and thoroughly enjoyed their Woodland Wednesday session this week.
The children explored the woodland environment and used a variety of natural materials to create wonderful animal pictures. Using leaves, sticks, and other treasures they found, they demonstrated great creativity and imagination.
It was fantastic to see their enthusiasm and resilience as they learned and played in nature, whatever the weather!

WOODLAND WEDNESDAY DATES
Please see below the Woodland Wednesday Schedule for the Summer Term.
On their specific dates, the children will need to wear appropriate clothing, including waterproofs if the weather is due to be wet – please be aware they may get mucky, so old clothing would be best, and some spare clothes to change into following the activity in the event of wet weather is also advised.

NEW GAMING AND ONLINE BULLYING RESOURCES
In collaboration with the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), new resources have been published on the Kids online safety website to support parents and carers with online bullying and gaming.
These new sections aim to help families feel more confident in understanding and discussing what children are doing and experiencing online.
Please see details of the new topics covered below and click here to access this resource

Booking is compulsory for both Breakfast Club and Afterschool Club. Due to limited spaces, a place must be booked before the session begins.
