Our final week has arrived and we are all ready for a long holiday. The children are excited about moving into year 1 and we have had lots of visits from Miss Davis so they are familiar with her and her with them. She has watched how they interact and learn and will take that forward into Year 1. The children who are leaving us are also excited and have all visited their new schools. I have managed to speak to most of their teachers and they are looking forward to them starting in September. We have had most of the children for 2 years so it is always a bit of a wrench watching them go but we look forward to hearing how they are getting on in year 1 from Miss Davis. We normally pay them a visit in the first week.
We have had a relatively normal week and have tried to keep to our routine as much as possible. We were lucky on Friday to be able to watch the Year 6 production which the children enjoyed.
On Monday and Tuesday we will be sorting out the room with the children and asking them to help  decide what we should have for next year so that they can be part of the change.
On Tuesday we finish school at 2.00pm. School Road gets very busy as the Year 6 leavers have lots of family members come along to see them leave school for the last time. If you are driving I suggest you park in the side streets and walk in or get here a little earlier. You have been warned!!!!!
I would just like to say a great big thank you for all the support you have given us this year. To all our parents who are leaving we wish you all the best and to our parents who are staying, see you in September.
Have a great Summer.

We started our week with a visit to the church. Chris the curate told them the story of Noah's Ark and they had a look around the church. Thank you to the parent's who helped walk the children over.
 We have also had a visits from our new children. The children were very welcoming and took time to interact with their new friends. It was lovely to see how they suddenly became grown up and demonstrated many things that the new children could do in September. Our Reception children spent time in year one so it is all change. We are all getting ready for a break and the children are beginning to show signs of tiredness. We are trying to keep things as normal as possible as they do get upset easier at this time of year as things begin to change. We will continue with all our normal activities until the final day.
On Wednesday we had a karaoke sign along with a pretend microphone which the children thought was real. I have uploaded the video for you to see. I think we may have some X Factor candidates.
Have a great weekend.

The sun has been kind to us this week and the children have spent lots of time outside. We had our picnic on Tuesday which the children enjoyed. They made all their own sandwiches and decorated the biscuits. They were very good at eating them as well!
The children loved taking the parents into the wildlife area and showing them insect and plants that are growing and living naturally.
Henry brought in a sunflower  and the children used their observational skills to draw what they saw. We have also listened to some traditional tales which stimulated the children's imaginations.
On Monday we are going to visit Christ Church to look at the building. Chris the curate is going to talk to us about the building and tell us a story. On Wednesday we will be having our new nursery children in the unit for an hour in the morning and on Thursday our new reception children will be joining us, we are also having our parent consultations next week. Please make sure you have booked your slot or speak to me if you have any problems.
Could you please have a look at home and see if you have any library books so that we can collect them in before the end of term.
Have a great weekend.
Mrs Robinson.
