Beech Class NEWSThis term Beech class will be
learning about climate changes and will be looking at weather
conditions across the world. Beech class have been very busy making
learning exciting. In literacy we focused on fiction writing where we all wrote our own extended story
about a journey. During maths we looked at measure which involved from measuring straws to wiggly
lines and even weighing our shoes! In PE we have been dancing
waving our streamers to remind us of how the wind blows. We have
been looking at weather paintings and we’ve been sketching and
colour mixing to create raindrops. There are some promising artists in
our class. To end the week with some excitement it was world book
day and Beech class had some interesting characters - Cinderella,
princesses and superheroes. All the children in Beech class have been working very hard and we are very
proud of our work!
Well done to the High Five Netball tournament players today, you were a credit to the school and I have to say it was a pleasure to take you to Newlands and then on for some more at Courthouse to which we had a triumphant victory against them 13-9, the afternoon at the tournament clearly paved the way for the game at Courthouse after school and showed how adaptable and versatile our pupils are as they moved from High Five netball rules to a seven a side game. Well done to Farah, Zaara, Basma, Haleema, Samia, Faiz, Abdullah and Mujtaba, Miss Porter and myself had a lovely afternoon with you and enjoyed taking you.
As for the High Five netball tournament at Newlands, the results were as follows
• Riverside v Wessex - lost 0-3• Riverside v Courthouse A - lost 0-9• Riverside v St Edmund Campion C - win 3-0• Riverside v Furze Platt C - win 5-0• Riverside v Cookham Rise A - draw 0-0• Riverside v All Saints B - win 4-0
Riverside came third out of our pool but did not get through to the quarter finals but who knows what will happen this time next year? All of the children played really well and took on board what they had to improve on as a team and made improvements to their game, again well done Riverside!!
Sports Relief DayFriday 18th March
Please start to get ready for Sport Relief which will be on Friday 18 March, children please get your running shoes on as we are hoping to get all of the children in school to walk, jog or run a mile in their favourite PE kit or favourite team in any sport!! Perhaps you can start thinking about what to wear for the 18th and get in training for two weeks’ time.....
Please remember to give your children your £1 donation on the day so that we can send in our money to Sport Relief after the event and many thanks for your support in this matter.

From the Head’s Chair
Dear Parents/Carers
Spring is here and at last we are seeing some sunshine although it remains cold.
This is a very important time of the year for all our children but particularly for our children in year 2 and year 6 who will be sitting their SAT’s. It is vitally important that all our children have full attendance so that they don’t miss areas of work and learning. Thank you to you all for helping your child dress up and celebrate World Book Day. Reading is so very important because children need to be able to read in all areas of the curriculum. When they are doing word problems in Maths or finding out information in history they need to be able to read.
We still await out visit from the Ofsted inspectors. Everyday our staff are working hard so that all our children make progress. You can do your part by talking to them
about what they have been learning at school and encouraging them to do the best they can everyday.
Have a lovely weekend.
