Thank you to all of our families who donated clothing to be up-cycled for our un-fast fashion project. All of the remaining clothes were donated in the local charity bank.
During our outdoor learning week we were joined by Charlotte Rigby from Our Lady and St John's High School who led a fluorescent art lesson for each class in Key Stage One.
Here are some of the amazing posters made by the children during our Un-fast Fashion project. They really do showcase the talent of our pupils and how much they have learnt about caring for God's Creation.
Earlier in the year we applied for a bid of £500 towards a project linked to global issues. We were successful in our bid which was based around teaching the importance of reducing, reusing and recycling in relation to the global obsession with fast fashion. We worked alongside Andrea Westall and each class undertook a project to design and create a fashion item which was either up- cycled or made from re-cyclable materials. The children had great fun bringing their designs to life. All of the children also created a poster to share information about the impact of fast fashion on our climate, wildlife and workforce. All of this hard work culminated into a fashion show for our families and communities. Thank you to every one who came along to support us. We hope that you enjoyed watching the fashion show as much as the children did.
This month we have been thinking about our virtue of 'Kindness'. We were proud to award these children with the 'Bee Award' and it was wonderful to show how their kindness shines each and every day in school. Well done.
Congratulations to the winner of the Sports Cool Award for excellent achievement during her time at the club. Thank you to everyone who took part. We are sure that you enjoyed yourselves and it was great to see you learning new skills each week.
Today Year 2 and Year 6 were visited by the fire and rescue educational team. They did a brilliant job of teaching the children what they should do if they were ever caught in a fire. The children know that they must get out straight away, stay out and call the fire brigade. They also learnt how to stay safe by staying low, checking door handles with the back of their hand and safely exiting buildings. The children will be bringing home a poster with useful information and a competition. Please read these through together. There are also useful phone numbers if you would like support with fire alarms in the home.
