Learning with Confidence Together
Are you Stanley’s answer to Mary Berry or Paul Hollywood? Get your showstopping bakes perfected in time for the May Fair on Sunday 15 May and you could be pronounced Star Baker!
As we are raising money for outdoor equipment and markings, we are taking inspiration from our Olympic theme. Please see Bake Off poster for full details of baking categories.
Judging will take place at 12:30 on Sunday 15 May and the winner and runner-up prizes for each category will be announced at the end of the Fair. All entries will be donated for sale on the cake stall. Get baking!
On Monday 25 April we will be launching the next value in our values education project, Responsibility. Some examples of behaviours that demonstrate this value are:
Please could you discuss Responsibility with children at home, and explore ways to reinforce it. Each week we will give special certificates to those children who demonstrate good values, and these will be displayed in the office reception area. Please feel free to come and look at them.
Please come along to our Living Classroom Dig Day this Saturday! Adults and keen children over 8 with supervision are welcome- no experience necessary. Just come along any time between 10.00– 14.00 via the staff car park. Please bring a spade and/ or gardening gloves if you can. Paddington (cert. U) will be showing at Saturday Film Club in the large studio from 10.30 for the kids (children from Year 2 down to be supervised by an adult). Do come along if you can- the more spades the merrier!
We are excited to announce that children’s author Abi Elphinstone is visiting Stanley on Wednesday 20 April 2016. Abi is author of The Dream Snatcher and The Shadow Keeper. The Dream Snatcher raced into the bestselling charts within the first few weeks of being published and was heralded as a ‘Top Ten Children’s Book Not To Miss’ in 2015 by The Bookseller. During her visit, Abi will be holding an assembly for children in Years 4, 5 and 6 and will be signing books in the large studio after school. If you would like to buy one of Abi’s books and have it signed on the day, please send money or a cheque (payable to ‘Kew Books Ltd’) with your child. Each book is £6.99.
