Maths Evening<br />
Following on from last year’s successful literacy evening, in response to parent’s requests we shall be<br />
running a maths evening. It would be helpful for our planning of the event if parents could indicate the<br />
sorts of things they might like teachers to cover. If you have any suggestions please complete and return<br />
the slip below.<br />
Visits out and about<br />
It has been a busy week for classes being out and about visiting places to support their learning in<br />
different areas of the curriculum.<br />
Class 4 enjoyed a day at<br />
Plymouth Dry Ski<br />
Slope and orienteering<br />
on Dartmoor as part of<br />
their Mountain theme.<br />
The children were<br />
very well behaved<br />
and learnt a great deal. Photos<br />
will follow shortly on the website.<br />
Class 1 explored the village on Monday as part of their ‘Special<br />
Places’ theme and will be off to West Town Farm on Monday.<br />
Class 2 took part in a very exciting day at West Town Farm<br />
based around ‘Badger Tales’ to support their learning in literacy<br />
and had a great time as you can see from the photo.<br />
Next Tuesday we would be grateful if parents could ensure<br />
that children are collected promptly from school as the<br />
teachers will be visiting Doddiscombleigh <strong>Primary</strong> <strong>School</strong><br />
to undertake some moderation for writing with<br />
their teachers and will need to leave school promptly.<br />
Sports Report ... by Bailey, Ianthe and Jasmine<br />
“On Wednesday 23 rd February a group of Year 5 and 6 children went to St Luke’s in order to represent our<br />
school in a netball tournament. We all enjoyed it, although we hadn’t had much practice. What was good<br />
was we got better and better throughout each game, we also played well as a team and supported each<br />
other. We noticed that if we continue to play, we believe we can improve further or even win a match! We<br />
have another arranged for Wednesday 7 th <strong>March</strong> - we’ll let you know how we get on!”<br />
PE Kit<br />
All children need to have their PE kit in school everyday, particularly Class 1. I have noted that not all<br />
children are bringing in a full kit including shorts which are important especially when using the gymnastic<br />
apparatus in the hall.<br />
Bag to <strong>School</strong><br />
Don’t forget FIS are again collecting old clothes and material for ‘Bag to <strong>School</strong>’, this is such a great and<br />
easy way to raise money for the school. Please send in bags as soon as you can!<br />
A.S.C<br />
Please remember to let A.S.C know if your child will not be attending the club due to illness, school trips or<br />
holidays.
