TRANSCRIPT
Friday 5th November 2021 ‘Strive, Believe, Achieve’
CAPE-TASTIC!
On Monday Reception had their very own
Superhero Day. The children were encouraged to
design a cape over the half term break that
reflected their very own super powers. The capes
were fantastic and reflected the children's
personalities, as well as the hard work and effort
they had clearly put into designing and making
them. The children loved taking part in a variety of superhero-inspired
activities throughout the day and wowed us all with their positivity.
I made my cape at Nana and Pops’ house.
It has J for Joey and my superpowers are
sharing and kindness. Joey
My cape is yellow and green and my
superpower is climbing. It was fun. Lina

CHILDREN IN NEED
Next Friday we invite you all to wear your pyjamas—or something spotty—to school, in
aid of Children in Need. In return we ask you to make a donation via the Gateway app,
from Monday. All donations will be sent to BBC Children in Need. Please ensure your
clothing is suitable for the weather (don’t forget your base layers) and remember to
wear sturdy footwear (not slippers!). If you have PE on Friday you will need to bring
your PE kit to school separately (or wear it to school if you do not wish to dress up on
the day). FoQM will be having a cake sale at the end of the day, with proceeds also
being donated. Please bring all donations of cakes, biscuits and yummy treats to school
on Friday, and please don’t forget to list all the ingredients
of your home-made goodies. The cake sale will be CASH
ONLY and card payments will not be taken on the day.
Thank you in advance for your generous donations.

DIWALI
Yesterday was Diwali, the festival of lights that is celebrated
by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains around the world. Diwali is a
celebration of new beginnings and light plays a very
important part in the festivities. The lights and diya lamps remind Hindus of
the journey made by Rama and Sita back to their home after Rama defeated
Ravana in a battle lasting ten days, followed by Rama rescuing Sita from
Ravana’s prison. The deeper meaning of this story is that goodness will win
over bad, and the lights are symbolic of this.
Diwali is special to me because we celebrate as a family. My mum makes
special snacks and we light Diyas. My mum brought lanterns for everybody in
Year 3 to make to take home. I enjoyed celebrating Diwali with my class, and
making the lanterns was really fun. Ansh
