Online Safety, by Mr Pearson

Date: 3rd Mar 2021 @ 4:59pm

The online world offers amazing opportunities but also brings elements of potential risk and for Parents, making sense of the online world can appear to be an enormous challenge.  Unlike previous generations, the online environment is an integral part of children’s lives and therefore we can no longer consider their wellbeing or safety without also considering their relationship to technology.  However, staying safe online is fundamentally about behaviours rather than the technology itself and if approached from this perspective, we can begin to gain confidence to support our children. 

The link below provides some useful tips for Parents when discussing the online environment with children.  In addition, this page also contains a variety of resources which can be used to develop knowledge and confidence to support children.  You will also find useful information in the news and events section of the site through the link at the bottom of the page.

Sorry, it is a message about Christmas. We will be doing a nativity play in reception and we are busy learning songs and getting costumes. Please can you encourage your child to learn their words if they have them for the play and also sing the songs.

Marshmallows everywhere., by Mrs Catterall

Date: 1st Nov 2020 @ 7:27pm

Thank you to everyone who supported our enterprise.  We made over 230 marshmallow kebabs for you all to enjoy.

The children get to decide what to do with their profit.  Half will go to charity (exact one yet to be decided) the rest has been spent on Christmas sewing kits and magnets for a Christmas science and DT project.  If there is any left we are going to buy more books for our class library.
