PCSOs in School

pcso

We are lucky to have secured visits to each year group from our Police Community Support Officers over the next few weeks. The PCSOs will be talking to the children about keeping safe, predomminantly online and on the roads.

There are a number of games and websites that children have access to that alarmingly pose possible online safety risks. The visitors have spoken to children about how to keep safe online. There are some useful online safety guides and handouts for parents on our website, please [click here] to view.

Sutton Town Hall Concert Cancelled

The Concert at the Town Hall has been cancelled tomorrow due to boiler pipes freezing over. The people involved in arranging the concert are hoping to rebook at a later date so all tickets that have been bought for tomorrow will still be valid for the future date (tbc). If certain families and their children can't make the future date a refund for your tickets will be paid in full. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

World Book Day 2018 ¡en español!

In Spanish lessons on World Book Day, Y4 and Y6 looked at the book ¿Para qué sirve un libro? (What is a book for?)

sirve

It is full of metaphors about books - Un libro es... (A book is...) Having read the story and enjoyed the amusing pictures, the children worked in pairs to match Spanish and English metaphors about books. They then chose one or thought of one of their own to write on a book cover and illustrate. Below are some of their book covers. All the books will be collected into one big book and displayed so that visitors as well as other classes can view them.

Some classes were also treated to a story in Spanish - 4AB enjoyed Azul el sombrero whilst Señora Stevens read Vamos a cazar un oso (We're going on a bear hunt) to 6SG with some of them joining in with the sound effects! 6SG were also treated to a page or two of Miss Sonnenschein (Little Miss Sunshine) as they didn't believe that Señora Stevens was actually reading it when the call came to Drop Everything And Read!

Safer Internet Day 2018

SID2018 On Tuesday 6th February 2018 the whole school celebrated Safer Internet Day. Safer Internet Day (SID) is organised in the UK by the UK Safer Internet Centre in February of each year to promote the safe and responsible use of online technology and mobile phones for children and young people. This year's event had the theme “Create, Connect and Share Respect: A better internet starts with you”. The day gave children the opportunity to focus on both the creative and positive things that they are doing online, as well as the role that we all play in helping to create a better, safer internet. Children listened to special assemblies where they thought about how to be safe online and what to do if they have a problem. The UK Safer Internet Centre is online at www.saferinternet.org.uk.
