Thank you to everyone that got involved in Comic Relief. The children all looked very 'funny'. We shared some great jokes in assembly and sold out of the delicious cakes!

The Prince of Wales school raised an impressive £283.03 for Comic Relief, this money will be doubled by the government and given to those in need.

Eco Schools

In our “Eco Assembly” this week, the children were made aware of some
of our school’s plans in our bid to become a Gold Level “Eco School”.

We talked about the school’s energy bill and how we can try to cut down
on our expenditure by making sure we turn off lights and other
electrical appliances when they are not in use. We have some “light
monitors” that will be patrolling the school. It was suggested by the
children that the “Eco Team” make up some posters saying “Naughty,
Naughty, You Got Caughty!” They will be leaving these in the offending
classrooms!
We talked about our successful “Jumble Sale”, where we
raised over £200 for the school library.
Our participation in the Big
Pedal is going well. We did particularly well on Friday when we ran the
“Bike It Breakfast”. We currently are in second place locally, - behind
Damers School (who pipped us at the post last year).

Drama Week

"The best response to my drama sessions that I have experienced in 44 years of teaching! What fantastic children!"
This was Simon Stone's comment as he said goodbye after a week of leading each class in a full day of drama!
Not only did the children absolutely love the drama activities, but they have also been inspired to produce "some of the best writing my class has ever done."
Many thanks to Simon for his energy, ideas and fantastic props!
I hope you will take the time to see some of the outcomes of the week as they appear on the class displays in the corridor.
Many thanks too, to the three students from Plymouth University, especially Scott Sanders, for leading more fun and engaging drama based upon books and poems with four of the classes.
The teachers also felt that our joint days, when the children worked collaboratively with older or younger children, were really enjoyed by everyone and had lots of benefits.

Healthy Choices

Mrs Thorpe took a Jigsaw assembly on Tuesday about making healthy food choices. This is to start this half term's Jigsaw Puzzle entitled "Healthy Me!"
