Scorpions Forest School

Today, Scorpions created Viking Runes. They worked in groups to create a runic coded message to locate an item that they hid somewhere on the school grounds. Other children than had to decode the runes and find the item. Once again we had a great morning. There was lots of excellent teamwork and collaboration. The runes looked really authentic.

Fire Safety presentation

This morning the Year 3s and Year 4s had a visitor from the Shropshire Fire & Rescue Service. They found out about the role of the fire service and what happens when you call 999. They also talked about what to do if they spot a fire, how to check a smoke alarm, the important of thinking about escape routes and “Stop, drop and roll”. They have been given the tasks of checking smoke alarms at home and talking to parents about escape plans. Thank you Shropshire Fire & Rescue Service!

FOBCS – Bridgnorth Walk

Please see below from FOBCS:
FOBCS– Bridgnorth Walk- Brown Clee School Team Entry
This year’s Bridgnorth Walk takes place on Monday 4th May. We were wondering if there would be enough interest for us to enter a school team, to take part in the Junior Walk (ages 9-15) & Family Walk, both of which depart from and return to the family fun day at Cleobury North Village Hall. Early bird entry fees apply until 28th Feb- Junior Walk £10 each + £1 booking fee, Family Walk £6 each + £1 booking fee. All entry fees go to the Bridgnorth Lions Club who in turn donate to various local and national charities and good causes. 
The Junior and Family Walk routes are much shorter than the full route with the route of the family walk being fully pushchair and wheelchair accessible.
The walk is both fun and safe, and the theme for 2026 is ‘Community Matters’, as everyone comes together to celebrate the very best of our local community.
Please let us know if you would like to take part (whether it’s a yes or no!) : Bridgnorth Walk Brown Clee School Team Entry – Fill out form

Mathematical Problem Solving

Scorpions enjoyed solving a mathematical problem on Friday. There was lots of excellent discussion and mathematical talk about how to go about solving the problem, made even more exciting by representing the problem using marshmallows! It was fantastic to see the children so engaged and focussed on finding a solution.

Scorpions Forest School

The weather was not very kind to us today but Scorpions still had a great morning at forest school creating ‘Dragon Eyes’ from natural materials. The children began in groups collecting items that they could use in their designs. They then thought about how they could use the things they collected for the different parts and colours of Dragon Eyes.  The end results were amazing! Well done Scorpions!

Dogs on School Grounds

We have discovered dog mess several times over the past few days – which really is not fair on our children or the staff that have to pick this up.

 

Please could we remind everyone that accessing the school grounds out of school hours is trespassing.

SCHOOL CLOSURE – 9TH JAN ’26

Unfortunately, we are not going to be able to open today due to the adverse weather conditions causing obvious issue with travel, access to site and disruption to power.

 

As it is still a school day, we do have some tasks for children to try and complete:

  • Build a snowman or make a snow angel
  • Throw a snowball
  • Catch a snowflake
  • Fall over
  • Go sledging
  • Get cold hands or feet
  • Warm back up
  • But, most importantly: have fun and stay safe.

 

(If anyone does wish to send any pictures af things they’ve been up to in the snow, please feel free to email these to admin@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk – and these will be shared via the website/Facebook with the rest of the school).
