Our <strong>the</strong>me for this half term is “Summer” and wea<strong>the</strong>r permitting<br />
we hope to be spending lots of valuable time enjoying our outside<br />
facilities, we will be exploring <strong>the</strong> nearby woods, taking <strong>the</strong> parachute<br />
onto <strong>the</strong> fi eld and practising a variety of races for Sports’ day. We are<br />
looking forward to celebrating <strong>the</strong> Olympic games not only taking part<br />
in lots of different racing events but learning new skills such passing<br />
<strong>the</strong> baton, jumping over hurdles, putting <strong>the</strong> shot and taking part in a<br />
triathlon.<br />
The children will be celebrating <strong>the</strong> work of Rachel Whiteread an<br />
artist who explored <strong>the</strong> emblem of <strong>the</strong> games and composed a pattern<br />
of over lapping rings featuring <strong>the</strong> Olympic colours. Like Rachel<br />
Whiteread <strong>the</strong> children will be using (unbreakable) glasses to print <strong>the</strong><br />
over lapping circles.<br />
Thanks to Lisa and Graham Bessant our summer trip will be a visit<br />
to <strong>the</strong> Gauntlet bird Centre in Knutsford. We have been several times<br />
and have always enjoyed <strong>the</strong> experience. The birds are spectacular!<br />
We will be sorry to say good bye to our 21 School Leavers and we<br />
wish <strong>the</strong>m well when <strong>the</strong>y start <strong>the</strong>ir new schools in September.
