Clean Air Day competition


On Wednesday 5th July, 12 members of the Eco team, plus Mrs Hughes, Mrs Lacey and Mrs Thompstone, went to the Home cinema in Manchester to watch our Clean Air Day video that we had entered into a competition run by  Transport for Greater Manchester. We had made a short film to promote the use of public transport to help to prevent air pollution ruining our health. To continue the Eco theme, we even travelled into town on the train and walked to all our destinations.


Our film was one of twelve to be picked for the final out of a total of eighty-five entries. At Home, we listened to the radio broadcasts and watched the video promotions from all the finalists before the results were announced. The standard of entries was very high but we were very proud to learn that we were runners-up and the prize was £100 of vouchers for school.


We had a lovely day! Charlie was picked to try out a virtual reality bike; there were delicious home-made cookies and juice and goody bags from the staff at Home; we visited Whitworth park for a picnic in the sunshine; and we enjoyed the play equipment too.


Not all our committee could join us as it was transition day for our year sixes, but in the pictures above are-


Caelan, James, Ethan, Marley, Jake, Gracie-May, Casey, Lucy, Adam,  Charlie, Ruby and Sam.

Week ending 27 January 2017

    Internet Safety Day – 7 th February 2017 We take E-safety seriously throughout the year but Internet Safety Day on Tuesday 7 th February will provide us with an opportunity to have a more in-depth focus on E-safety in each class and share some of the children’s learning with you. Over the next two weeks pupils will be learning about how to stay safe on the internet. Their learning and activities will be relevant to their age group. We believe that it’s important for children and their parents to be aware of the dangers on the internet, to recognise any inappropriate use of the internet, and to know what to do should they find themselves involved in any situation. You are invited to join us on Tuesday 7 th February for a morning assembly (9.10am to approximately 9.50am) when each class will share with you what they have learnt. This will then be followed by a Powerpoint presentation for parents and carers with time afterwards for questions and discussion. As part of Inte...

Sunday is the Feast of Pentecost! We pray for Year 6 during their preparation for Confirmation

Изображение
This Sunday sees the end of 50 days of Easter, and welcomes the Feast of Pentecost - when the Holy Spirit entered the hearts of Jesus' disciples. We look forward to seeing you at mass to celebrate this Holy Day. When we return to school we will explore this most joyous moment.  For now, you may want to look at the video below to help you understand the event. The Holy Spirit fills us with the Fruits and Gifts we need to spread the Good News , as disciples of Jesus.  The video link below may help you to remember these - think about how you will use the Fruits of the Holy Spirit throughout your Journey. We continue to pray for Year 6 , as they prepare to receive the Holy Spirit, through the Sacrament of Confirmation.
