Value/attribute of the half term: Curiosity Mrs. Quigley’s weekly message: This week we have completed our first full week in school, and our new Reception children have spent their lunchtime with us. It has been lovely to have the whole school together. Outside at lunchtime I’ve seen lots of happy faces, children looking after each other and back in the classroom great learning taking place with some excellent questioning and curiosity. During this school year we will be embarking on a very exciting journey called ‘High Performance Learning’ or HPL. The philosophy is ‘everyone can’ which fits so well with our mission statement of ‘Unique Individuals Learning Together’. We all have our strengths and talents, but we can all keep trying and growing. Over the term, I will share more around this programme and how it will influence our school. As part of this, programme we have introduced a new award. This award links to our focus value or attribute. Children were recognised today in assembly by their teachers for showing curiosity and using this to help them grow in their learning. Well done to this week’s ‘Golden Planet Stars’. Thank you to the parents who were able to join us this week for ‘Meet the Teacher’. I know for some of you the timings will not have fitted with other commitments, so teachers will be sharing their information via Seesaw. Please take some time to read this and contact the teacher if you have any questions. Finally, next week in school, children from Y2-Y6 will have the opportunity to apply to be part of our school teams. These teams meet on a regular basis and work on projects that help to make our school even better. Teachers will share more information about the roles and how to apply. I know we have some amazing children in our school who will have great ideas to share. Next Friday, the successful applicants will be announced in assembly— I’ll certainly be looking forward to seeing which children are going to be making up the teams this year! For Reception and Year 1, the children have the opportunity to work with the Y6 leaders and share their ideas as a class, helping them to develop their own communication skills, ready to take on the role in future years. Have a wonderful weekend—see you all on Monday. Mrs Quigley
