Mr Veale’s welcome Welcome to this week’s edition of the Atwood News.

We’ve had a fantastic Friendship Week at Cypress Lower School, learning how to be good friends and celebrating kindness. 

What a great week it’s been in school! We’ve enjoyed odd sock day to celebrate uniqueness, had a Pudsey Bear hunt and biscuit sale for charity and generally enjoyed basking in the warm and friendly atmosphere that’s been promoted through discussions around being a good friend and showing we care.

Here is the news as written by some of the children in Year 5.

Last week, year 5 had a Victorian day which many children enjoyed.

Results from the previous Big Debate #2-Are climate protests going too far?

We have been learning all about rainbows and colours in nursery and have been reading the story books ‘What Makes A Rainbow’ and ‘Rainbow Colours.’

We have had a very empowering week this week because we have taken part in the Anti-Bullying week which has included celebrating ‘friendship’.

In our English lessons, we have been reading The Twits by Roald Dahl.

Year 2 enjoyed a fascinating presentation on Diwali- the festival of light.

On Tuesday,  we took part in Odd Socks day as part of our Friendship week celebrations. 

Today, years 3-6 at Brigstock thoroughly enjoyed taking part in workshops for the Lion King! 

This time last year I was approached by one of our parents, asking if we had any old and unused resources which might be useful to a Nursery School that her mother was setting up in Ghana. 

Yesterday, staff and children at Brigstock and WHJUN main site celebrated uniqueness by wearing odd socks. 

Last week, we gathered together at assembly time to think about the importance of Remembrance Day.
