Monday 25th April assembly

Today in assembly the children learnt about the meaning behind St George's Day (23rd April), what a Saint is and of course a retelling of the famous story itself! Ask your child if they can recall the story to retell to another?


Also, a favour, we wonder whether anyone has a spare Union Jack flag to donate to the school? Ours is unfortunately tattered and beyond repair.

10 green bottles...

You may have noticed that the plastic bottle greenhouse is nearing completion - we now need more plastic bottles to help complete the roof. Please bring bottles into school to either Mr Gibson (R class) or Mrs Webb (Yr 2).
Thank you!

Big Pedal - Starts on Monday 18th April

 
Just a reminder that we are taking part in "The Big Pedal" again this year. We would like to encourage as many children as possible to come to school on their bicycles and scooters.
The competition lasts for the next two weeks.
In the last two years, the Prince of Wales School as achieved a very high percentage of scooterists and cyclists. We are hoping to achieve the same again in the competition this year.
Parents who scoot or cycle with their children can also earn points for the school.

A visit in assembly from Iron Man!

A very exciting assembly on Wednesday, when 'Iron Man' made a visit to The Prince of Wales School!

The school have been focussing upon building our Learning Powers and our current particular focus is ' Resilience'. Iron Man presented the school with a knitted turtle which is our school mascot for 'resilience'. In class this week the children have been working upon how to 'grow our resilience' within their individual learning.
'Being absorbed', 'managing distractions' around them and 'persevering' are key areas we have all been thinking about developing with each others' help.
