Autumn Decorations

The children enjoyed studying the beautiful autumnal leaves and painting pumpkins to make autumn decorations.

 

All Things Bright and Beautiful

We used the lovely art work that the children completed for the harvest festival to start to build a new window display around the hymn All Things Bright and Beautiful.  It  is a work in progress so we will enjoy watching it evolve.  The poppies were taken to the church, each person on the memorial was given a poppy and a thoughful message was written by the children, I think they look lovely as I drive past in the morning.  We will not forget.

Our World War One Display

Look at some of the amazing work Rhinos have done to make this display so informative.  We did a lot of work around the book War Horse, thank you for supporting their learning, I think some of you bought the book and I know others of you watched the film with your children (a real tearjerker).  I love some of the questions they would have liked to ask the soldiers in the trenches and their watercolour poppies were fantastic.

Cosford Air Museum

We had an amazing  and informative day at Cosford Air Museum.  The children were really interested to find out more about the aircraft and weapons housed at the museum. We enjoyed the workshop “Spirit of the Blitz” which gave the children a flavour of school, rationing and air raids.  They were all brave and went into the Anderson shelter and some children tried out the Morrison shelter.  We walked miles so I bet they were all tired tonight but it was a real pleasure to take your interested and polite children out for the day, I hope they enjoyed it.

Welcome to Rhino Class

Dear parents

It has been a real pleasure starting to get to know your children and I am very much looking forward to teaching them this year.

Between now and Christmas our topic will be RAF 100, focusing on World War1 but mainly on World War 2 and I’m sure they will find this a really interesting subject to investigate.  I’m hoping the homework jigsaw will come home with the children on Friday and you can get busy looking into this project at home with your children.

Homework will be given out on a Friday and will be due back in on a Friday.  Each week the children will get spellings to learn and a times table sheet to complete.  There will also be some work on growing a positive mindset which I think the children will enjoy.  The homework is not designed to be over onerous so please do come and see me if your child is finding it too much.  There will also be the homework jigsaw offering various creative tasks (not compulsory) for those of you that like to spend time with your children making fantastic art works and written work for our displays.

Forest School will be on Thursday mornings, PE will be on a Friday afternoon and we are super lucky to have a dance teacher coming in on Wednesday afternoons so please can children have their kits in school for these lessons.  Music and singing will also be on a Wednesday afternoon.

All children should now have a reading book and a reading diary, the children have been briefed on how to complete the reading diary.  I have heard most of the children read over the last two days and checked they are on the correct books, by Friday I should have completed this process.  If you have any concerns about reading  please don’t hesitate to pop in and have a chat.

My door is always open, I would much rather you pop in, ring or email with any concerns at all.  As always my main aim is to ensure the children are happy in school so they can reach their full potential.

Shropshire School Summer Games

Huge congratulations to the 14 children who represented Myddle CE Primary School and North Shropshire at Sundorne Sports Village today. Having already qualified through to this event by winning their local tournaments, they continued to show their qualities against other winning teams from the region. Overall, the archery team finished in 2nd place, narrowly missing out behind Longden School, who represented Shrewsbury. In the tri-golf, East Shropshire were the winning team, but our players achieved their highest total of the year with 701 points. The actual Summer Games winning area was East Shropshire. Further details can be found on the School Summer Games website, Twitter and Facebook sites.
