A HUGE THANK YOU ..

Thank you to Zoe Harold and the PA team who organised such a wonderful PA Christmas Fayre last Friday. As one member of staff commented, this was a 'great community event and the atmosphere in school was lovely.'

Sincere thanks to everyone. We really do appreciate all of your support.

Thank you to our visitors

A big thank you to Mr and Mrs Bahra who came in to school today to tell us about their visit to India.
All the children found what you had to say very interesting - they have been talking about it all day!


I will put some pictures into the Class 3 area of the website over the weekend.

Abernant Meeting

Thank you to all the parents and children who attended the Abernant meeting last night. I have uploaded the PowerPoint presentation onto the school website under 'useful documents for parents' . Any questions or queries please do not hesitant to contact me. I know the children are really looking forward to this fantastic opportunity!

Year 3 homework

The homework for year 3 has been sent out in the children' s bags today. I have tried to upload it to the website but the links appear not to be working... I'll discuss it with people who understand these things and try again tomorrow!!

Year 5 Spooky Snacks

A big thank you to the children and parents who supported Class 5's Spooky Snacks Stall at the end of school today. The children in Class 5 have worked incredibly hard to prepare and make the food and use their knowledge and understanding of money to sell their products. Please check out the Year 5 gallery to see fantastic pictures of our terrific treats: Frankenstein angel delight, boo-nanas, Dracula denture, apple owls and doughnut and pretzel spiders. Well done Year 5!

Children in Need Fundraising with Y6

Year 3 homework will be sent out tomorrow!

A quick note to tell you that we didn't have time to give out this weeks homework today- we were knee deep in our "makes" for the PA Christmas fair!

It will be sent home tomorrow!

Bikeability

Year 5 pupils were given the opportunity to participate in a Bikeability course, the course enabled children to learn about road safety and they had to apply this knowledge to cycling around the local area under the supervision of trained instructors. Children completed a 4-day course and at the end of the course they were assessed by the instructors and told if they had passed the programme. The majority of the children did! Therefore, today in assembly Mr Steggall handed out bikability certificates to every child in Class 5 because each pupil had got involved with the course. Well done Year 5 this is a super achievement and the instructors were very impressed with you. What a great scheme to be part of!

Children In Need

Pictures of our 'super heroes' day have been posted to our website under 'special events' at http://www.moorhall.bham.sch.uk/special-events Thank you to everyone who supported us with Children in Need this year. We raised over £240 and had a lot of fun too.

Class 2 Page Update

Where has another week gone?!  Children have been very busy continuing with their Literacy, Numeracy and topic work and have now also began rehearsing our Christmas production.  We finished our busy week with lots of fun dressed as our favourite Super Heroes.  I have updated the Class 2 page with photographs of our Numeracy and Geography work and photographs from today as our heroes.    

Year 3 homework and spellings

Year 3 homework and spellings have been uploaded.
Please note there is no literacy homework this week because the children did so well thinking about their DT homework earlier in the week.
Thank you

Year 5 visit to Ironbridge

Year 5 enjoyed a fantastic day, exploring the Victorian town -  Blists Hill at Ironbridge. We dressed in Victorian costumes and participated in a Victorian school session, where we wrote on slates, were told off for putting elbows on the desk and even had to have our hands inspected!  After lunch we split up into small groups to explore the Victorian shops and businesses. Some of the places we visited included: a chemist, a bank, a wood-shop, a cottage and a locksmith. Of course we had to stop at the sweet shop too! We will do lots of follow-up work about our visit to Ironbridge in class, especially now we have experienced a little bit of what life was like for Victorian children. Here are some photos of our visit (please see the Year 5 class page for more photos):

Class 2 Page Update

Children have made a great start to the first week back and have been very busy!  I have updated the children's work section of the website to showcase their fantastic Geographical 'Vs' posters they have created on the ipads.  Please take a few moments to have a look at Class 2's hard work! :)
