Carnival.....

I hope the children have enjoyed this week as much as the teachers. It has been great fun learning all about Brazil and observing the children participate in a range of creative activities.

In Year 3 the topics included; the location of Brazil and the people that live there, weather and climate, children in Favelas, Carnival and music, traditional sweets and foods, the Amazon Rainforest and sports. Thank you to all the parents for your wonderful food contributions. It made snack time more interesting for a few days!

Reading Records
Thank you to the children who regularly bring in their reading records on a Monday morning. Apologies from the Year 3 team that we haven't always managed to keep up with the system that we put in place.
As we are drawing close to the end of the year, we have decided that it would be better if the children keep recording any reading done at home on a daily basis and that we will take all reading records in on the 14th July (not at all before then). At this stage, we will calculate any outstanding certificates and award those before the end of the school year. So please keep reading!

Also, we wish to make you aware that if your child does not follow the school rules for walking down to the swimming pool at Aldwickbury on Mondays, then there is a possibility that they could be walked back to school and will have to miss their lesson. We appreciate that it is quite a long way, but after several reminders there are still a handful of children who are not consistently walking sensibly and quietly with their partner to the pool. We would appreciate your support with this matter.

Have a great weekend

Mrs Meredith & Miss Shefford
