  • Weekly reminders for week beginning 28th June 2021

    Sun 27 Jun 2021

    As we get ever closer to the end of the term and the end of the year, we had another good and busy week at Clockhouse last week.

     

    Following the success of the 'A week in the life of...' videos, we launched another of these last week. If you have not yet seen it, you can view 'A week in the life of Year 5' by clicking on the links below:

    Celebration Assemblies
    Well done to Northern Ireland and Brazil for their Celebration Assemblies last week. We hope you enjoyed them from a far.

    Good luck to Scotland and Peru who continue our programme of Celebration Assemblies. Teachers will post these on Class Story / Google Classroom for you to see!

     

    SumDog Competition
    Mrs Overton has entered us into another SumDog Competition which started last Friday. Please do your bit to help us achieve as well as we can. If you need login details please ask or message class teachers. 

     

    Clock the Miles #trytobeatthepye
    A big well done to Reception and Key Stage 1 who worked so hard last week to Clock the Miles. They will complete their miles on Tuesday when Nursery will take the baton to do their bit! 

    Please send in any sponsorship money you have raised for the three worthwhile charities and thank you in advance. Every little bit really does help.

     

    Parent Council
    As you may be aware we have our own Parents’ Council which throughout its time has been run by parents for parents, chaired by one of our school Governors, Marcus Giddy. The next meeting is this Thursday, please join if you wish by following the Zoom link below (please join with your child's name and class).

    Thursday 1st July at 9:15am

    Orange Day
    On Friday we will be joining with others and hosting ‘Orange Day’ to support the very worthwhile and local charity - St Francis Hospice. As a community I am very aware that this amazing place has touched many of our lives in different ways including my own.

    To show our support for this, for a small donation, we ask that the children come to school in non-uniform including something orange - this can be a small as a hair clip, a pattern on socks, or something orange on a top etc. Can we turn Clockhouse orange for the day?

     

    No Pen Friday
    Back by popular demand, Friday sees No Pen Friday - we wonder who will manage the challenge!

    Sun 20 Jun 2021
    Another good week was had at Clockhouse last week with lots of wonderful and exciting learning taking place.
     
    We are very much looking forward to welcoming Scotland back to school on Tuesday. The last thing we want is for any class to have to isolate, but this is certainly a reminder to us all that the virus is very much out there still and we all need to continue to be so careful.
