What a pleasure it was to do Recognition Time today.  Lots of children going above a beyond this week, whether that is helping others, working hard or listening well in class.  We also talked about what we are enjoying about OPAL Play and gathered some ideas for things they would like to see. 

I am so incredibly proud of Year 6, they have shown real courage and determination this week when completing their SATs.  Everyone has dug deep, remembered some tricky facts and tried their best.  All Year 6 now have their leavers hoodies!!!  The children can wear these to school in replace of their OBS jumper or cardigan from now until the end of the year. A big thank you also goes to Miss McCulloch, Mrs Jones and Miss Ryan for all their hard work with teaching the children and getting them ready for SATS.

Mr Davie and his team were busy this lunchtime creating the new flower planters around school, its a fantastic club open to all Key Stage 2 pupils.  It is lovely seeing school coming into bloom, thank you.

Well done to the pupils recognised by adults in school for going above and beyond this week.

 

The pupils shared the best bits of school are:

- the opportunities

- football

- friends

- PE

- Walesby (residentials)

- History

- OPAL

- writing

- After school clubs

- story writing

- tris

- recognition time!

 

With their magic wand they would like:

- less tests

- no wellies for football

- playing on the field with no wellies

- more areas of banks open

On Thursday, eight year 5 children had the opportunity to visit Harvey Hadden and try out a new sport... Boccia! The children had a great time learning the rules, trying to better their opposition and developing their skills. Miss Lawson was impressed with how responsive our children were to trying out a new sport. Well done team! 

Recognition Time is always a lovely way to spend a Friday morning; celebrating those pupils who have gone above and beyond this week.  Well done to each one of you who has impressed a member of staff with your work ethic, attitude or conduct around school, you make us PROUD!

Best bits about school this week are:

 - Art because I love drawing

 - Science because you do cool experiments

 - Maths because you learn lots!

 - OPAL because you can play it lots of areas of school
