Opportunity for All
Our School Development Plan for 2019-20 is called ‘Opportunity for All’ and focuses on supporting children to develop the values,
skills and knowledge they will need for their future. One important part of this is for every
child to have the opportunity to find and develop their passions. What is your child passionate about and does their teacher
know? Look out for an information leaflet in the coming weeks. Miss Brumby
Violin Magic Beech Class loved their first violin lesson and
were excited to be given responsibility for their own assigned violin. The first lesson was
music to my ears! Miss Stagg Thank you to the FoBVPS for funding this
opportunity
Core Values It is unbelievable how many Core Value
counters we have already collected in two weeks! Don’t forget to ask your child what they received their Core Value sticker for.
Thank you to Mrs McLeod (and many other parents) for the recent donation of books to the school. Mrs Crook
World War Art Year 5 had great fun creating silhouette pictures during our World War II Art Day.
We had to think of a WWII inspired background and then create the
silhouette out of black paper using our careful cutting skills. The colourful
background was created using a variety of chalk and pastels - this was the best and messiest bit! We were really proud
of the finished product. Mrs Munday
Aslan’s Alley In Year 6, we have started to read our
book ‘The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe’. We created a conscience
alley and decided whether it was a good idea for Lucy to enter the woods alone. There were lots of different reasons for
Lucy to consider, as the children justified their point of view. Miss Elliott
We’re Here Full Time! We are so proud of how well Apple and
Cherry Class children have settled in already. They are enjoying their learning and making lots of friends at lunchtime.
Mrs Beasley
This week, the new topics have started in style over the school and the children are already becoming engrossed. We are concentrating on creating more
opportunities for irresistible and memorable learning as a school, and the children have certainly been talking excitedly about their different learning
activities. From finding dinosaur eggs to acting out the Enormous Crocodile, it’s sometimes hard to know who’s having more fun, the children or the adults!
You get to learn more and more interesting stuff
every year! Luka, Year 2
Helping Hands Thank you to everyone who volunteers
at our School. We are always looking for
more people to help read with children
and support in class. Unfortunately, due
to the skilled nature of the activities
involved, we do not usually ask for adults
to help at Forest School.
