World Book Day

For World Book Day this year we are focusing on the story ‘The Huge Bag of Worries’ as a whole school.

Reading and sharing stories and books is an important part of life at Brown Clee School. With this in mind we have decided not to dress up this year.

During the day we have an author coming to talk to Key Stage One, we will be taking part in activities inspired by our chosen book and we will be sharing the fruit and vegetable characters the children have made at home.

The Very Lonely Firefly Display.

Class 1 have been reading ‘The Very Lonely Firefly’ by Eric Carle. They have drawn a picture about their favourite part of the story. They have then written a sentence from the story to go with their picture. We have used their work to create this fantastic display!

World Book Day – Thursday 5th March

World Book Day

This year for World Book Day we shall be focusing on one book as a whole school. 

We have chosen:

The Huge Bag of Worries By Virginia Ironside

We will share the story together as a school and throughout the day each class will take part in activities inspired by the story. 

 

We are also inviting the children to bring in a fruit or vegetable fictional character that they have made. 

It could be a parsnip Harry Potter, an apple Mrs Twit or a banana Podkin One Ear! 

We look forward to seeing your creations!

Ex Pupils Visit – Sporting Achievement

We had a visit from Jess and Niamh, who are both in Year 8 at Bridgnorth Endowed School, who came to talk to Class 3 and 4 about sporting opportunities available at Bridgnorth Endowed School (curriculum and extra-curricular) but also about their achievements in local sporting clubs.

Niamh is a Shropshire County netball player, amongst other sporting achievements, and is looking forwards to a netball team trip to Italy in the near future, and Jess was scouted for Bridgnorth Girls’ Football team.  We are very proud of their achievements and hopefully they will have inspired some of our pupils to have a go at some different sports out of school, and show them what they can achieve if they put their minds and best efforts to play.  Thanks you Jess and Niamh for coming back and sharing your successes with us!

Thought for today!

Today we have started to share this book with the children…all about a Boy who met a Mole, then a Fox and a Horse. We are using the beautiful pages as thought provoking discussions.

 

 

 

 

Today’s thought was the first page…

How We Can Look After The World.

Class 1 have been learning about ways we can help to look after the world we live in. We have learnt about the impact of rubbish on the environment and have been on a litter pick around the school grounds. We have also had a lady from Veolia in to talk to us about the importance of recycling and to explain what happens to the things we recycle.
Another issue we have been discussing is plastic pollution and the affect this has on the oceans and wildlife.
The children have been creating posters to emphasise the importance of recycling and highlight the issue of plastic pollution.

The Very Lonely Firefly

One of our class books this term is ‘The Very Lonely Firefly.’ Some of the children in Class 1 have made up their own talk for writing version of the story which they performed to the rest of the class. This will help them to write their own version of the story.

Cough Lozenges/Sweets

We are aware that there are a lot of bugs involving coughs and sore throats around at the moment, but would like to remind parents that if they wish their child to have any medication, it needs to be handed in at reception and the appropriate paperwork completed.  This also includes cough lozenges which have specific dosages.

With regards to cough sweets, such as Soothers etc, we would kindly request that these are not sent in with children.

Making Lamingtons

Today, Class 2 have been busy making Lamingtons. They are an Australian cake made from square pieces of sponge cake, coated in chocolate sauce and sprinkled with coconut. In English, the children have been learning how to write instructions so they have been following a recipe carefully to make them.

Folk Whistle Lessons

Class 4 have begun their folk whistle lessons today as part of their curriculum learning.  The children are being taught by the Shropshire Music Service, and as part of the learning they will be borrowing a Folk Whistle. They can take these home and borrow them for the term in order to practice. We do ask that they are taken care of as they will need to be returned at the end of term to be returned to the Shropshire Music Service.
