Weekly Update 31.3.23

Hi,
I can't believe we are 2/3 of the way through the year!
We finished the term with a Scholastic Book Fair in school which was a great success. We ran another Year 6 Book Fair Takeover with a great team of accountants, customer service advisors, browsing supervisors, and events, display and advertising specialists! The takeover team did a fantastic job of organising the running of the fair and promoting it in school. I would like to say a massive thank you to all of the team for giving up so much of their time to help run our fair. We couldn't have done it without them! Here are most (not all!) of the takeover team below!
We also had some very exciting lessons taking place on Friday as all of the children in Ash and Maple class finished their DT "automata animal" projects they have been planning this term. We have learnt lots about CAM mechanisms and designed our endangered rainforest themed animals and on Friday we built our frameworks and put it all together!
Finally, many of us enjoyed taking part in the Easter egg scramble today which was organised by the PTA so we would like to say a big thank you to them for this!
Have a great Easter holidays and see you in two weeks!

P.S. I have set the children in Ash a little extra homework challenge starting now until the end of the year - we have been writing postcards as an Ancient Maya archaeologist this week so in the spirit of writing letters instead of the digital communication we rely on so much I have challenged the children to send a postcard to the school addressed to Ash Tree Class if they visit anywhere exciting in the near future! :)
