Assembly and Fairthorne

Thank you to all of you that were able to make it to our last class assembly on Friday!!!!!!! We hope you enjoyed it???? I thought, as always, the children were fantastic - funny, confident, expressive and clever.......you may have noticed that there were elements of their own work woven into the play - sonnets, rap, letters..........a really talented class! Well done! (How will we beat that for our Leavers Assembly?????)

It was also exciting to be able to present Ben S, Chris and Amy Y with their medals and certificates which they won at the Sainsburys School Gala last Wednesday - 4 x gold medals and 1 x silver medal as well as a PB time for Ben in his backstroke!!!!!! Well done we are all VERY proud of you, representing the school so magnificently!!!!!!!

I hope you have all been packing?????I know I have been madly panic buying last minute items, also you need to do a sun dance to encourage the weather to be good!!!!!! We had a long discussion on Friday with many questions and worries addressed and answered - I hope you are all feeling excited, I PROMISE you that you will have the most amazing experience! Just to highlight a couple of points, Mr. Farrington has said it is fine for the children to bring a sensible quantity of sweets to share with their friends in their rooms, (we will check that they do not eat them all in one go before bedtime!!!!!!) NO technology but small games are ideal (cards, top trumps, travel games......book, pad, pen and torch). Don't forget your stamp and address!!!!!!! A reminder that you will need a packed lunch for the first day. Cameras are brought at your own risk, don't worry if you don't bring one as we take LOTS and LOTS of pictures and will give you all a disc with them on afterwards!!!!!!

(Look at my suitcase........)

Finally - please can ALL children have PE kits in school with appropriate outdoor footwear - trainers are perfect!

How we will get through the next couple of days ............ too excited!!!!!! :-)

Mrs. Scott, Mrs. Long, Mrs. Thomas...........I hope you've had plenty of sleep this weekend!!!!!!!!!
