Cedar Week 1 Autumn 2 w.e 10.11.23
Posted: Nov 9, 2023 by: Mr Dring (p.dring) on: Cedar Tree Class
Hello
What a fun week this week has been! From learning about healthy nutrition in Science to learning about Roman Numerals (1-12 in Year 3) and up to 1,000 with Year 4. We were surprised to hear they has no curvy numerals or a written numeral for 0! We used a variety of ways to learn about them but our favourite by far was the song.
In P.S.H.E, we have been using our Mindmate lessons to learn more about how to protect our mental health following Mrs Harris' assembly.
In our writing we are learning about newspapers (paper and online versions) and have enjoyed collecting facts about the raid on Lindisfarne by the Vikings in the 8th Century. As Historians, we have been learning about the end of the Anglo Saxon kings, the end of the Viking period in Britain and the subsequent start of the Norman period in 1066.
Health and Safety reminders:
- it is school's PE policy that for your child's safety and their peers that ideally earrings (unless newly pierced) are removed prior to coming to school preferably (or prior to the lesson if the child can remove them) on PE days (which includes swimming). Although children can wear plasters over their ears, these often fall off and increases the risk of injury which we would like to avoid. Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.
- if you know a different adult will be picking your child up, particularly from afterschool clubs which are run by different adults other than me as class teacher, please can you notify us in advance (via class email, office email, office telephone or verbally to us on the door in a morning). This is to ensure we can ensure safeguarding of your child at all times and there isn't a delay in us sending them home whilst we seek your permission. Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.
Year 4 - please make sure you have given permission via Parent Pay for your child to join us at the Spring residential, currently we have less than 25 permissions which means it is highly likely it will be cancelled . If you didn't receive your link please contact the office directly who can resend it to you. If you have concerns regarding the financial payments, don't worry - we just need your permission via Parent Pay at this stage and please talk to us in confidence about any concerns that you may have about your child's attendance.
Have a great weekend
Mr Dring
