The children in Y 6/7 are really enjoying Accelerated reading. Have a look at the photos of them during AR time in class. We read for half an hour each day. Each child takes a quiz at the end of every book they’ve read and their progress is recorded.
If they get 100% in a quiz they get a stamp! If they get 4 stamps they get a free ticket for our Friday draw. They can also get a ticket for this for every 5 points they earn in AR each week.
Our weekly winners so far are Abigail, Emma, Adam D, Sarah-Jane, Megan O and Sam. Well done all !
Miss Moore’s Y1/2 children enjoyed riding their scooters and bikes to school. They even got to take them out for a spin during outdoor play! 🤩
Miss Moore and Anne were so proud of how many children didn’t need stabilisers!! 👏🏻
Y1/2 had so much fun breaking the rules!
Who doesn’t love mad hair and chocolate for snack?? 🍩
International Dot Day is a global celebration of creativity, courage and collaboration. All around the world children and adults celebrate Dot Day to encourage people of all ages to harness their creativity. The inspiration behind the event is the children’s book ‘The Dot’ by Peter H. Reynolds. It relates the tale of a teacher who challenges one of her pupils to take courage in her abilities and “make a mark and see where it takes you.” 🎨
Y1/2 along with their friends in Y3/4 were inspired to collaborate on their own Dot project, and together the created the most beautiful wall display. ⭐️
Well done Mr Campbell class and Miss Moore’s class - you have definitely left your mark in APS. 👏🏻
I had popped into Nursery today and thought it was only fair that all the boys and girls were able to see Barney's weekend with Mitchell. This was such a long time ago but I thought I would share it with you as Barney is missing all the boys and girls so much. Mitchell and Barney had such a busy weekend that started with a trip to McDonalds for a happy meal. Barney met Mitchell's 2 gorgeous dogs and he also got to listen to fantastic stories that we love in Nursery; The smartest Giant in Town and The Gruffalo. Barney and Mitchell has great fun at Donemana park playing on the swings, tunnels, bike and riding around on the John Deer Gator. They even had a visit from Mitchell's friend from nursery, Joe.
I would say both Barney and Mitchell were very tired after such a busy weekend. Thank you for all the fun Mitchell and I hope Barney gets a chance to see everyone very soon again.
Keep your eyes peeled, even Barney was staying safe!!!!! ;)
Lots of love; Barney & Mrs Preston
