Excellence and Ethical... Badminton On Thursday 6th February a team of 6 children from Year’s 3 and 4 went to Mounts Bay Academy to take part in a badminton festival. The children worked their way through <strong>10</strong> different stations using a variety of different equipment to build up badminton skills. It was great to see the children working as a team and enjoying a sport that was new to some of them. The children were keen to promote badminton in school and hopefully we will be ordering some new equipment soon. Well done to Rory, Seth, Poppy, Reenie, Felix and Delilah. Also, thank you to Jacob Odetayo (an ex pupil) who was our Year 9 leader for the day. Ghost Fishing Assembly On Monday 3rd February Ludgvan School welcomed a team from ghostfishing.org into our assembly. This assembly linked to our whole school topic last term of Plastic Pollution. During the assembly the team talked about the work they do as volunteers to help clear our oceans of plastic pollution and lost fishing nets. The children saw video clips of the team working under water to carry out surveys of areas where debris had been found, as well as learning how they clean areas. After the assembly children from Years 2, 4 and 6 worked with the team in workshops to take a closer look at the things the team had found, the equipment they wear and use and they had a go at surveying the animals found in a net. Thank you to ghostfishing.org and their team, it was great to have you visiting us. Thank you to Katrina (Olivija and Sofija’s mum) for helping to organise this.
What’s been going on... Other news... Expectations and Standards Apologies for the nature of this page of reminders, but it is important to clarify the expectations that remain in place so that we can retain high standards throughout. • Large JoJo bows and other hair accessories are not appropriate headwear. Hair should be tied back with simple hairbands. • Blue hoodies with the school logo on are excellent for outside PE sessions or clubs, but are not to be worn in place of a school jumper or cardigan as part of the uniform. • School PE kit consists of a coloured Ludgvan PE T-shirt (the colour of their team) and black shorts or leggings. Tracksuits or other warm clothing can be worn for outside PE. • PE kit should be in school every day. The classes have set days for PE each week, but there may be changes to the schedule or the opportunity for extra sessions. Children without PE kit will be unable to participate in PE lessons. • The school register is taken ay 8:55am. Children not in their classrooms by this time will be marked as late. A punctual start to the day is vital for your child to ensure they are settled and prepared for their learning to begin. • Clubs finish at 4:15 unless otherwise stated and it is important that children are collected at this time. There have been a number of occasions where children have been collected significantly later than this and this puts an unfair expectation on staff who need to stay to ensure your children remain safe. We appreciate that circumstances can sometimes be out of your control, but should this happen more than once, a £5 fine per 15 minutes may be applied at the Principal’s discretion. Children’s Society Thank you all for you generosity at our Christingles at Ludgvan Church this year, as combined with Oasis and Church donations, they raised a total of £431.08 to send to the Children’s Society. Sport Relief To support sport relief this year, during the week beginning 9th March, each class will take part in a sponsored sporting challenge, please see your children’s sponsor form for a date and activity etc This year, it links really strongly with our refugee topic as: ‘£2 could buy a warm blanket for a child living in a refugee camp’ ‘£<strong>10</strong> could buy a pair of warm winter shoes for a child living in a refugee camp in Lesvos’
