Junior Leaders Ready to Go!

It has been another hectic week, despite it only being the end of the second one. The children have continued to work hard and demonstrate their thirst for learning across the curriculum. I enjoyed covering first thing in Year 4 on Monday, as it was lovely to read a story to them ahead of their new English work. 

Our voluntary Open the Book team returned with their first story of the new year. There are always so many willing volunteers to help out and bring the stories to life. Well done to all those who took part. 

Our Years 5 & 6 Girls' football team has now been extended to invite any willing Year 4 girls should they be interested. Simply put, like last year, we do not have sufficient numbers to participate in the competitive local schools' league and if no more names are signed up, our school is going to be forced to withdraw from the league, cup and tournament. This will be a genuine shame. Hopefully, some year 4 girls will join in the coming week. 

Next week, we have Norfolk Library Service visiting to celebrate all those Junior children who read six books over the Summer holidays. From Wednesday, we have the Scholastic Book Fair at our Junior school, so please feel free to peruse the books on offer after school. Please remember it is all cashless, so online payments only by scanning a QR code. This will run until 30th September when the books are collected. At the end of next week, we have our Macmillan Cake sale after school once again, which will be a lovely treat for those looking through the book fair also. Hopefully, the weather is nice enabling us to sell cakes on the front playground. All donations will go to this worthy cause.  

Have a great weekend everyone!
