1GH 18/19

Thank you so much to those children who have been bringing things in from home to share with us at school. We love that the children are excited and engaged with their learning and wanting to continue this at home. Creating a thirst for learning is so important to us and we are so pleased that they can share this with you too. Lots of children made monsters and rather interesting concoctions at home when we were looking at Morris the Mankiest Monster and they helped to make a fantastic Big Writing display in the classroom. Last week, some children brought objects in for the Autumn display to help us with our Autumn poem. After half term we will be reading Goldilocks and the Three Bears. It would be great if the children could bring in anything they would like to share with us about this story.

As a reward for achieving 100% attendance for a whole week, 1GH will be able to come to school in non-uniform on Thursday 25th October 2018.  Well done 1GH!  This is the second time we've won this this year. Please remember the children will still need sensible shoes and warm clothes for playtimes.

We even lit some candles and sang Happy Birthday.  Harry blew the candles out for us.                      Some of us even chose to do some writi...
