CYP – We have Good Manners | Pegasus Academy Trust

This week at the Lower School we have been thinking about our Pegasus Value ‘We have Good Manners’. We have been working on showing kindness and respect towards everyone in our school community. The children are showing they are true ‘Pegasus People’ and we are very proud of them. At the Upper School, we were thinking about planning for success during Monday’s assembly. We know that thinking about how long a task may take, identifying resources that can help, considering steps to success and also who can help us, can increase the chances of us being sucessful!

Ruby Class Advent Assembly

We began the morning on Thursday with a brilliant assembly from Ruby Class about Advent. The children told us the story of Advent and performed with real confidence and pride. We were treated to three songs including ‘ This Little Light of Mine’ and ‘Holly, Jolly Christmas’. We also had a beautiful song sharing the importance of kindness and how we need more of it in the world. This is such an important message for us all to remember especially at this time of year. Ruby Class you showed incredible teamwork and empathy towards each other. Thank you to Miss Stopher and Miss Mitchell for all your hard work preparing the children for their performance. We would also like to thank all or parents and carers who came along to support the children for being such an excellent audience.

Oak Class Assembly

Today we were treated to a deightful assembly delivered by Oak Class. It began with a quick sneaky peak into the Ancient Egyptian art of mummification and then on to a full biology lesson on the importance of the heart and the its impact on the other vital organs in the body. The children then finished off their assembly with a song rewritten by Tom and Hazel about the heart to Elton John’s ‘I’m Still Standing’, with Dara accompanying on the piano. Sam also worked on the slides and ensuring all the technical elements went smoothly during the performance. Many thanks to Miss Hassan and Ms Snedden who supoprted the children to deliver such a wonderful assembly and a big well done to Oak Class, who wrote their assembly independently. We are very proud of you!
