Well-Done Assembly – 04.11.22

“Well Done” Awards

As of this week, we have stopped our weekly well-done certificates – and, instead, children will be given recognition awards at any point in time throughout a week These awards are given when an adult in school notices a child doing some above and beyond what is usually expected. These will be for things like demonstrating one of our SMART learning behaviours, one of our Christian values or one of our three school rules (Ready, Respectful, Responsible). At each well-done assembly, children who have been given an award will then have the opportunity to share.

Bus Parking Space

We are aware that the on-going building work has prevented parking on-site, but can we please ask that the space provided for bus parking is not used during the starts and ends of each day as this can cause disruptions with the buses unable to pass through.

Long Mynd Adventure Camp

 

Written by Ruby, Keira, Abigail, Charlotte, Megan and Mollie

The Walk.

To get to the camp we walked up and over the Long Mynd. Our bus dropped us off at Carding Mill Valley, which we walked straight up. We saw lots of sheep springing around on our way through!

We eventually reached a waterfall and we were allowed to dip our heads under to get refreshed.

On our way up, the stunning scenery was breath-taking enough, but the wild ponies made it absolutely phenomenal!

Once we finally got to the top, we stopped for lunch, where we had beautiful visitor who seemed to like licking lunch boxes – a fabulous pony. Emily, Lily and Joanna had to tempt it away with an apple.

On our way down off the Long Mynd, we had to walk really closely to a tiny foal and its mother, and we all had to be silent so not to scare it. It took a bit more time than we expected and when we eventually got to the camp everyone was very tired and rather sweaty! It may have been 10.5 miles but it was really fun!

 

The Camp.

After walking 10.5 miles in 4 hours, we finally arrived at Long Mynd Adventure camp. The camp was a large main hall with a big field at the front, seven cabins at the back and a toilet block. We were all very tired when we got there and most of us had a warm shower and made our bunks feel like home. Throughout our stay, Mr Harley kept doing cabin checks to make sure our bunks were tidy.

After setting everything up and having some free time, we had a delicious dinner made by Mrs Davies who was helped by Mr Smith. We then had a delicious cake and some custard each for pudding.

We then played a game were we had to act out a famous book or movie without saying any of the words in the title of it. After that, we played a game, where in our cabins, we had to number ourselves and then had a series of different challenges to do, with each winner gaining points for their cabin. It was really fun! We finally had some hot chocolate and a biscuit before we went to bed.

 

The Climb.

The next day, we all went rock climbing. We were first split into two groups, but before we left to go, we had a ice lollies that Mrs Relph had brought the day before. We also did an obstacle course whilst we waited for the bus.

The first group went rock climbing whilst the other group went on a scavenger hunt. We got handed a sheet with pictures of the different places of the scavenger hunt and we had to follow a route by recognising what what was on the picture around us. We finally reached the top of a big rock where if you carefully looked all the way down, you could see the other group right at the bottom doing their climbing. It looked a really long way.

Once the group had finished climbing, we all stopped for lunch in the nearby meadow. We then swapped over, and the group that were climbing did the scavenger hunt, but in reverse. Rock climbing was so much fun as we got to do it on an actual rock. We had to help each other with the ropes and we were all connected in case the person climbing fell. The people at the bottom had to carefully pull their rope through as the person got higher up. They then abseiled down and we had to carefully feed the rope back so that the person could get back down.

 

The Final Day.

On our final day, we had our breakfast and then had to tidy everything up for the next group who would be visiting later that day. We then walked a short way up the road to the bus before heading back to school.

Water Activities – Scorpions

All children in Scorpions will need to come to school in clothes suitable for getting wet – e.g. swimming shorts and t-shirt for boys. Swimming costume under t-shirt and shorts for girls.

 

They will also need to bring a spare pair of clothes and a towel.

Thanks.

KS2 Athletics

This week, 24 pupils from across KS2 took part in an athletics competition at Oakengates. They took part in mixture of track and fields events across the day – including sprints, hurdles, long-distances races, relays, rounders ball throw, javelin, long jump and high jump. The children showed fantastic team-spirit and determination throughout the whole day.

 

We even had some pupils who made it to the podiums in their events:

School Games Award – Platinum

We are delighted to announce that we have achieved the School Games Platinum Award for this academic year (2021-22).

 

The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in
2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward and recognise school’s engagement (provision and uptake) in the School Games against a national benchmark and to celebrate keeping young people active, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.

 

The Platinum award is the highest School Games Award available – with very few schools having being awarded this so far – and requires schools to have achieved the School Games Gold Award for the previous four consecutive years. This along with a school case study into how the impact of the school’s engagement with the evolution of the School Game is taken into consideration for the judgement before being awarded.

 

For those interested, our case study for this year has been to “Demonstrate how you have embedded positive experiences of competition into your offer and how this has made a difference to your uptake”, to which we focused on girls’ engagement with the competitive events available – something which they have absolutely flourished at over this academic year!

Girls’ Rugby Taster Session

Any Year 6 girls interested in giving Rugby a go – this has been shared by our Sports Partnership.

WHITTLES DELAYED

Whittles bus is unfortunately running late (approximately 20 minutes) due to a replacement coach being needed.

Summer Holiday Activities

Our sports partnership has recently shared this information on activities available over the summer holidays.

 

Here is also some additional information from Shropshire Council on a wider range of activities available across Shropshire: HAF SUMMER 2022 – What’s On – including some information on some free places on holiday activities (Who Can Access the Free HAF Programme).

P.E. Evaluating Running

Year 5/6 have recently been using video analysis to evaluate their own (and each other’s) running techniques over short and long distances.

Scorpions Residential Trip – Payments

For those wishing to pay for the trip by cheque, they will need to be made payable to Brown Clee CE Primary School Fund.

Rounders Tournament – Tuesday 7th June

Just to clarify, for those children taking part in the rounders competition after half term, they will need to be picked up from Oldbury Wells School (not from Brown Clee) at 5:00pm on Tuesday 7th June.

 

Both practices on Friday 27th May and Monday 6th June will take place at Brown Clee.

Tag Rugby – School Games

Following on from our success in the East Shropshire Tag Rugby competition, our winning team took part in the tag rugby county finals in this year’s Summer Games. Check out the team in action below:

Tag Rugby Success

Today, 24 pupils from KS2 took part in a tag rugby competition at Swancote (Bridgnorth Rugby Club) – making up three teams competing.

All the children showed fantastic focus, determination and teamwork throughout the whole competition.

 

Our C team finished in joint third position in the plate (second competition) – with our B team winning this competition. Our A team were undefeated throughout and eventually went on to become the overall main competition winners!

 

Brown Clee were also one of two teams voted by the sports leaders officiating the event as “consistently demonstrating the sporting value of Respect” throughout the competition – something which, alongside their impressive finishing positions, all the teams should be additionally proud of achieving

.

 

As the overall winners of the East Shropshire Tag Rugby Competition, the A team will have the opportunity to represent East Shropshire in the Summer Games (date to be confirmed).

P.E. – Scorpions – Next week

Next week, P.E. will be on Monday (first day back) and Wednesday.

 

Also, a reminder for those attending Tuesday’s tag rugby, the letters given out before Easter need to be returned on Monday.

Dragon Heads – Art

After a few weeks working on these, Year 5 and 6 finished their dragon heads this week.

The process involved first shaping chicken wire. Then, layering and shaping plaster of Paris to the desired form.

 

We then used a variety of different techniques to create texture through scales and colour.

 

And finally, here are the end pieces:
