Firework safety poster competition, by Mrs Catterall
Date: 11th Oct 2019 @ 3:04pm
Sorry this is late notice, time has flown quickly and posters need to be in well before bonfire night to be judged and prizes awarded before the day.
Children from any class can enter. Just create a poster showing how to be safe on bonfire night and bring it to school on Monday to be sent off to Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service.
Last year we had an overall winner in school, it would be great if someone from Longton could win a prize.

Macmillan coffee morning and book read, by Mrs Catterall
Date: 1st Oct 2019 @ 5:39pm
What an amazing morning. We were completely blown away by the number of visitors this morning. Thank you to everyone who came along to support this event, there was plenty of cake for everyone. The children enjoyed reading with their parents/grandparents, reading with the younger children or sat on a bean bag, taking off their shoes and sharing a book with their friends. Thankyou also to the parents who helped our amazing charity ambassadors and heads team.
We had lots of amazing cakes for our moon/space themed competition. There are some very talented bakers out there. The charity ambassadors had some difficult decisions to make when choosing the winner from each class. The winners were informed in assembly today and prizes given out. All children who took part will receive a special certificate later this week.
We will let you know the total amount once it has been totalled up.

Thank you to the parents who turned up tonight. If you couldnt make it , dont worry, I have put together a pack that will be in your child's bag tomorrow. Homework books have gone home tonight and we collect back in byTuesday of the following week.
Parents were asking about phonics and how we teach it...there is a quick parent guide on the files to download and I have just added a new one named 'read with phonics', Im sure over the next year you will soon become familiar with all the terms; phoneme, grapheme, digraph etc...
