Another week of learning at home means another chance to nominate learners for an assembly video award. Remember, as well as the Head of School Award for showing our school values in learning, we also have…
- The Jackie Johnson Award (for being polite and showing good manners)
- The Tidy Friday Award (for helping to keep the house clean and tidy during the week)
- The Sports Personality of the Week Award (for showing our values through PE, sport and exercise).
Leave a comment below this blog post to nominate. We’ll text you when the new assembly video is online this Friday.
If you haven’t seen it yet, check you email inbox for an email sent out on Monday this week, pointing you towards additional home learning resources. But teachers are still updating the year group blogs everyday and on each blog you’ll find weekly links to downloadable Word documents that include a lot of the blog content. Here are recent posts that explain how to use Seesaw in Years 1 to 6 to show teachers the learning going on at home. Reception teachers will see families on Tapestry!
Seesaw in Year 1
Seesaw in Year 2
Seesaw in Year 3
Seesaw in Year 4
Seesaw in Year 5
Seesaw in Year 6
Take care,
Mr Poyton
