Year 3 – A couple of reminders

The children are really enjoying learning about the Titanic. 

blank

We just wanted to send a couple of reminders: 

Monday 27th June
Year 3 will be having an experience day all linked to our project ‘Titanic’. The children will be allowed to come to school in non-uniform. We are inviting them to wear smart clothes (No football kits) to board the Titanic. On arrival to school that morning the children will randomly choose their ‘ticket and class’ and this will help them to experience what it was like to be on the titanic. Throughout the day they will take part in activities and answer our big question ‘Is segregation ever a good thing?’  

Thursday 30th June 
This is non-uniform day in exchange for a contribution for the FOSM tombola. Can we please remind you that PE will be taking place still on this day, so the children should wear suitable clothes and footwear to take part in PE. 

Friday 8th July
School trip day to Seacity Museum. Thank you to everyone who volunteered to help on this trip. We had many offers and have been in contact with those parents we will be taking. Sorry if we didn’t have space for you to come this time, we can’t do these trips without your help. The children will need to be in uniform and have a pack lunch on this day. 

Thank you for your continued support,

Year 3 Team  

Year 2 – Our Trip- An Adventure we never expected!

On Friday, we had a wonderful trip to Hillier Gardens. The children behaved impeccably and the Hillier staff commented on how wonderful they were and said what a relaxed and lovely day they had with our children. YEar
 
We learnt so much and experienced a range of habitats through a range of activities including: pond dipping, nature walks, meadow sweeping and even made our own homes for little animals. We thank all of the Hillier staff, school staff and parent helpers who made the trip possible.

We thought the trip was over as we climbed onto the bus for our return trip home, but unfortunately were thrust onto another adventure when the coach broke down. For many children this was probably the highlight of the day! A little less so for the staff! The children again did us proud and were amazing in our unexpected circumstances. We were lucky to manage to get to a place of safety quickly – the garden of a pub, The White Horse, in Ampfield, where the generous and helpful owners John and Gaye Armstrong kindly allowed us to take refuge in their gardens and provided drinks for the adults and children (as well as letting many children use the toilets). We are so grateful for their kindness and support in what was a challenging situation. The children will be writing their own letters of thanks this week. 

 
We would also like to thank all of the fantastic parent helpers and staff who were brilliant in keeping the everyone safe and calm, the staff beavering away back at school and to all of the parents who were waiting patiently for the children to return. It was an adventure we weren’t expecting but it will certainly be one that we never forget! 
 
As a reward for their super behaviour, we will have a fun afternoon in school this week for Year 2, so this will be something extra for the children to look forward to! Our adventure will also add some extra interest and excitement to the recounts that we will be writing too! 
 
We hope to have a fun, but hopefully slightly less adventurous week.
