Blue Class spellings and maths homework w/b 23/9

Edshed is now up and running. All children received log in details on Friday which have been stuck into reading diaries. I also checked this morning that all children have got them. When children log on they will need to use this new log in not their one from last academic year. Therefore, any saved log in details will need to be changed.

Children will still bring a paper copy of new spellings for this week but they are also on Edshed for those who prefer to learn them using the games.

Maths homework will be on the maths shed part of the site from and is set to appear on a Tuesday and completed by the Tuesday. If any children have any difficulty logging on or finding their assignments they should come and see any member of the Blue class team before the homework is due. We are aiming not to give out paper copies of homework in order to try to do our bit to save the amount of paper we use so homework will be set on line.

Kind regards,

Mrs Colin-Stokes

 

Maths homework and spellings – week beginning 16/9

We are still experiencing issues with Edshed so paper copies of maths homework will be given out tomorrow and a paper copy of the new spellings was given out today. Hopefully these issues will soon be resolved and children will be able to log on to view and complete homework and play the games related to their spellings.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Mrs Colin-Stokes

 

Blue Class Spellings and Maths Homework

As we said in the post last week, children will receive a paper copy of new spellings and they will also be able to access them on Edshed. Maths homework will also be set on the maths shed area of Edshed. Unfortunately, children will not be able to access the spellings or homework on Edshed this week so they will have their paper copy of spellings (that were given out today) and will receive a paper copy of the maths homework on Tuesday. Apologies for this – we hope this will only be for this week and all will be resolved for next week.

If there are any concerns about the spellings or homework please do get in touch.

End of first week

It has been lovely welcoming the children in Blue back to school; they seem  keen and ready to learn after the long break.  A warm welcome to Nina and Cameron who have joined our class from other schools.

We appreciate we sent this information at the beginning of the week but we know some of you may not have seen this bulletin .

PE days:

Monday and Friday- children need to come to school in their PE kit. As the weather gets colder, children should bring joggers and layers. Children need to take out stud earrings or bring their own tape to cover them.

Reading: In Blue Class there is an expectation that children should read each evening. Their reading book should be in school each day and they may choose a book from home or one from our school library. Children should record what they have read in their diaries and parents need to sign their diaries. Whilst many of our children are fluent readers in year 5/6, it is important that parents/ carers hear their child  read aloud at least once a week. This is an ideal opportunity to discuss the books they are reading and ask questions about it to improve their comprehension. Reading diaries will be checked each Wednesday.

Welcome Back!

Free Vector | Welcome back to school, autumn theme

Welcome back, we hope that you have had a lovely summer break. We are looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow (Tuesday 3rd September). All children should come in school uniform.

A few reminders:

School is open from 8:40am and lessons/registration starts at 8:45am. It is really important that children are here for the start of the school day.

Please make sure that you have put your child’s name in their clothes, particularly jumpers and cardigans – a biro name is sufficient. Children might also need a coat this week as we still go outside if it is drizzling!

We are a nut free school so please make sure that lunch boxes and snacks are nut free. Morning snacks should be fruit or a healthy snack but no sweets, chocolate bars and nuts. Lunch boxes should be healthy too where possible.

All children should bring a water bottle which they have access to during the day. If your child does not drink water, please speak to their class teacher as we do not encourage alternatives unless there is a valid reason.  Please make sure that your child’s name is on the bottle.

The best water bottles in 2024 including insulated, gym and sustainable  options

We can’t wait to see you all back!

 

Flipper the Dolphin!

 


It is estimated that over
8 billion packets of crisps are consumed each year in the UK, the majority of which are not recyclable and up in landfill or incinerators thats a lot of waste and a huge environmental problem! At Claverley CE Primary School, we encourage our children to be courageous advocates and would like to be a part of changing things for the better!

We are delighted to announce that we are in contact with ‘The British Ironwork Centre’ and will be welcoming ‘Flipper’ the dolphin sculpture, which we aim to fill with empty crisp packets that would potentially end up in land fill -our target is 1000 crisp packets! 

Please can you help us?

Picnic season is upon us! Please could you start saving empty crisp packets from home to bring into school in September so that we can reach our target of filling ‘Flipper’ the dolphin sculpture. We would love for family members to get involved too. The more crisp packets we can collect, the better!

Flipper the Dolphin will arrive at school on Monday 9th September and will remain with us until Friday 4th October.

Each class will be provided with a recycling bin to place crisp packets from home in-they will need to be counted before they go into the sculpture so that we can ensure we reach our target.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support and for supporting us in being advocates for positive change.

If you have any queries or questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

End of term


Well what a wonderful end of term: the children were all fabulous in Peter Pan and we had a great send off for the year sixes today. We wish them all well on the  next part of their journey.

We would like  to thank of all the parents for their generous gifts and kind words. They are much appreciated.

We hope everyone has a wonderful summer holiday. 

Yours

Mrs Benson, Mrs Colin-Stokes, Mrs Richardson and Mrs Wade.

 

First aid afternoon

Blue class enjoyed a fabulous afternoon learning the basics of first aid with Mrs Hughes. They all really enjoyed the session and thoroughly enjoyed learning about how to do a primary survey, how to do CPR and how to use a defibrillator. Later in the afternoon the children were taught how to help someone who is choking and they took turns in bandaging each other. It was a really informative afternoon. Our thanks go to our wonderful PTA for generously funding the event and to Mrs Hughes for leading the session.
