On Monday, parents of year one and two children were invited to work with a local artist - Andi Taylor!  They spent an hour with Andi working on different techniques and then their children came and started a topic called, 'Be an Explorer',  These  sessions will last six weeks and the children will visit lots of different countries around the world. Keep checking in to see their wonderful creations

iPads , by Mrs Kellett

I had the pleasure this morning of dropping in to some lessons to see what great work was going on in the classrooms. I saw lots of great maths work and some good discussions about improving our writing. I went into y5 and they had our new bank of iPads out. They were learning to write algorithms (commands) to move figures in a game. I was so impressed with the children's ability and the confidence with using the new technology to further their learning. 

Well done Mrs Atherton and Y5

Year 6 have been very impressive so far in rehearsing for the end of year production. 

They have made massive efforts to learn their lines, become familiar with the songs and dances and demonstrate their enthusiasm. 

Keep up the great efforts!

Miss Hope shared some great news today!  All Y2 have been working extremely hard on their 'special work' this week but one little boy - Matthew W - did not drop one mark!  That has never been known in the history of Queen's Park!  Very well done Matthew.   Super reading

Playtime, by Mrs Kellett

Date: 19th May 2015 @ 10:08pm

I went out today and spent some time on the playground with our KS2 children. I visited the tuck shop and bought a tasty Mango Whirl. Don't forget the healthy tuck shop is open daily. 

I had a lovely conversation with Scott from Y3 about how much he was enjoying being in y3.   I also asked the children what other equipment they would like on the playground.  Watch this space for continued playground improvements. 

Proud Headteacher , by Mrs Kellett

Date: 18th May 2015 @ 10:52pm

 Luckily, I have had lots of opportunities to feel proud of the children in our school and today I was overwhelmed with pride of the achievements of two of our children.

Joe in Y6 travelled to Skegness over the weekend to play in a Rugby tournament.  They played five games and finished first.  Joe was the captain of the team which beat Milford Rugby Club in the final - a team that were unbeaten.  Well done to Joe and all his team mates.  One to watch in the future if you are a Saints fan!

Charlotte in year one came to see me today and I commented on her beautiful new haircut, however she then went on to tell me that she had actually asked her mum if she could have her hair cut because she wanted to give it to 'The Little Princess Trust'.  This Trust is a charity that provides children with wigs because they have lost their own hair because of Cancer treatment.  Each wig that is donated to a child costs the charity £350.  Charlotte has had her hair cut and has also been raising money - so far £368!  What a fantastic achievement.

On 15th May, Charlotte went to the hairdressers and had a massive 9 inches cut from her hair. 

What a selfless, humbling and generous thing to do for children who are suffering.  I am so proud of you Charlotte

Fun with Commando Joe , by Mrs Kellett

Date: 17th May 2015 @ 9:53am

Every Wednesday, Commando Joe comes in and spends the day with us. He does lots of fun activities that develops confidence and self esteem. Once a half term, he brings in this huge inflatable. The children love it!  We also use it as a reward for 100% attendance  and team points.

Governors , by Mrs Kellett

Date: 14th May 2015 @ 10:32pm

Tonight was our Summer Term Governors Meeting. We sat around the table in the community room and discussed lots of plans for our school.  We welcomed two new Governors: Mrs Nichola Horsley and Mrs Linzi Ashton.  I know they are both going to make great additions to our group. Maybe I'll get the Governors to start their own blog!  

Reading in the Sun, by Mrs Kellett

Date: 13th May 2015 @ 10:23pm

It was a glorious day today so we got the picnic rugs out and a selection of books and placed them on the grass at the front. I was joined by some children, parents and grandparents. We shared 'Rumble in the Jungle' in the sun.  It was lovely to share some books with the children. Please come and join us. 

Class Worship, by Mrs Collier-Nelson

Date: 12th May 2015 @ 3:59pm

We have been enjoying class worship this week and sharing stories from the Bible with our friends.  Lots of us chose 'Noah's Ark' as our favourite story, so one of our class members read the story to us whilst be followed along with our own Bible.
