We have had a rather reflective week during our RE learning and discussions. Firstly, reflecting on our gifts; our families, friends, talents, our world and the many blessings God has given to us. Following this, we turned our attention towards each other…our class family. Each child was given a flower which the other children in the class wrote on, sharing the gifts they notice in one another. This was such a special moment in our week, the children all focusing on others and celebrating their gifts, talents, similarities and differences. Finally, when returning back to their own flowers, each child’s faces were full with delight as they read what special qualities their peers notice in them.
Let’s celebrate
Certificates: A huge well done to HENRY O and ISLA who have both been awarded a Focused Cooper Crab certificate this week!
Curious and Active Butterfly: Well done FREDDIE you have been curious in your learning of our wonderful world, asking questions and seeking answers both at school and at home!
Magic Moments
We are very nearly there with consent forms and are just waiting for a couple more to be completed. As soon as we have all of these we will be able to share with you the photos that we have taken that week. We really wanted to pop on our science experiment- testing to see if materials were waterproof!
KIDSAFE - safeguarding lesson 4. Keeping our private parts private and when a secret is not a secret. Please read the parents guide below so we are sharing the same messages with the children about keeping save.

Harvest Plea: In preparation for our HARVEST FESTIVAL on Thursday 12th October at 9.30am mass, as a school we have made the decision to collect food items for Fylde Foodbank who are struggling with the amount of need in our area. We would be so grateful if Year 2 could collect tinned tuna. Donations can be made from next week and will be much appreciated -thank you.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
