Lomeshaye Life It has been a busy two weeks at school. We have had lots of exciting learning opportunities and some wonderful events in school that have celebrated our learning and our family relationships. Well done to everyone who made it to school this week. This week we have met our school target once again, with the whole school achieving 97.9% attendance. This is a great improvement on previous weeks, well done! Parents Evening—thank you to all who attended parents evenings this week. I hope that you found the meetings informative and that you are now aware of how you can help your child with their learning. Just a reminder, 4 Sycamore parents evening will be on Monday 19th November, all parents should have had an appointment made by Mr Houseman. Commemorating World War 1—On Friday (last week) all classes spent time learning about the First World War. This involved learning about significant events in history, geographical study and art work too. The pupils have made some lovely pieces of art and some of their work will be displayed in our art gallery soon.
Dad’s Breakfast—On Thursday Mrs Safdar organised a Dad’s Breakfast. It was lovely to see so many Dads and male family members sharing the food and having a good chat with their children before the start of the day. Thank you for your suggestions of how we can welcome more Dad’s to school in the future too.
Trip to LEGOLAND—pupils in our Learning Leaves group had a fantastic trip to Legoland this week. They went to learn about how Lego is made and who invented it. They had a great time and were wonderful ambassadors for our school. Mon 19th Nov—4 Sycamore parents evening. Year 6 Maya Archaeologist, Dr Diane Davies, visiting school.
