week ending 17th July 2015

This week has been Sports Week and the children have been incredibly active learning a range of new skills and activities. So far they have taken part in:Team building exercise, climbing through a spider tower to jump down an inflatable slide; table tennis; kwik cricket; multi-skills; cheer leading; climbing and karate. A team of students form Sprowston High School came on Wednesday afternoon to set up and coach the children through a carousel of different ball-skill based activities. Weather permitting we will be practicing sports day on Thursday before the big event on Friday! The children have been learning a special cheer routine to perform before the start of the races and are very excited to show this to you. We will be sending home 2 reading books for all scheme readers this week for them to read and discuss during the holiday. It is hugely beneficial for all children to read regularly during the holidays and we would encourage everyone to take part in the library summer challenge as well as just focussing on these books. We will also be sending home the summer writing challenge, and we would encourage everyone to write just one sentence a week to help keep their skills in focus and to avoid the dreaded 'summer dip'! Please remember that, if you would like additional work for your child, you can also access a wide range of activities and games covering the curriculum through your child's Education City login details. Thank you for all of your support with you child's learning this year and for all of our other activities - we have had a great year and wish you all a relaxing summer!
