We Will Remember
Nice to be back and enjoying Forest Schools
Year 6 Sports Day
What we can see isn’t always the full picture. Often, particularly when we are findings things tricky or hard, we put on a brave face.
When people ask us if we’re ok, we say ‘yes’ even if we don’t actually mean it.
For this week’s art we have drawn objects that represent this idea.
It’s important we talk about our feelings with people we trust. If you’re worried about anything or have something niggling away at you from the inside, choose today to share it with somebody that you trust.
In Forest Schools this week, we made dreamcatchers
Possibly our best ‘Great Stanton Bake Off’ week yet!

Thank you to all of the parents who turned up and supported our fundraiser. We raised enough money to buy an acre of rainforest! This will help to prevent some of the problems caused by deforestation.

E - Safety at Rowsley
Last week the Junior children met at Rowsley school for an informative morning centered around e-safety. The children spent their morning watching a theater production. Three actors cleverly used the idea of entering the woods and meeting various creatures as a metaphor to get their message across. After sitting and watching intently, the children then engaged with an interactive workshop. It was pleasing to see them displaying great knowledge and understanding of the importance of keeping safe whilst using the internet and an awareness of what to do to keep safe.
We then enjoyed a lovely walk back up the hill - just in time for lunch!
