For Children in Need, the school council created a school competition to design a new eye patch for Pudsey. They collected the entries and judged them very carefully in our most recent meeting. After the winners from each class were selected, the school council chose a book for that child as a prize. The council members presented the winners with their prizes in our celebration assembly on Friday morning.
Congratulations to these children who were presented with Maths certificates in assembly. The child in each class who has made the most progress with their TT Rockstars gig since starting this academic year received a certificate. There were 3 very special awards given to children who achieved 100/100 on their latest gig which is impressive, so an extra special well done to Finley Jopling, Ella-May Grant and Darla Mihaita!
Everyone enjoyed a spook-tacular disco on Wednesday 2nd November 2022. Costumes were amazing!
Science Council Club have looked at seasonal changes focusing on Autumn and what we are noticing happening in our surroundings. They went on an autumnal hunt and collected some items from the school grounds and are looking for more signs of Autumn when outside school too.
As always they bring enthusiasm to club and lots of smiles.
We celebrated Harvest Festival on Friday 21st October in our school hall. Lots of parents and carers came to support their children. All of the food donations were sent to a local food bank. thank you for your continued support.
In multi-cultural, week we were so lucky to find out more about African drumming when Fanuel, from Zimbabwe, came to visit us. We found out that African drums are called djembe drums and are made out of wood and goat skin. We learned that in Africa, there are many rhythms played on the drums for all different occasions and some children tried to play some of these rhythms. Fanuel also taught us some African songs and dances. We all had a fantastic time!
Our new Science Council members have been voted in and what a wonderful group of pupils they are already proving to be. They have all been introduced to each other and now have their own very important ‘Science Council representative lanyards to wear to club each Thursday and when doing important jobs, helping to give students at Biddick hall Juniors a voice for science in the school.
We celebrated Roald Dahl day on his birthday (13th September). His favourite colour was yellow so we all tried to wear something yellow. During the day we discussed some of his books and completed activities linked to these. We held a competition linked to ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ which involved us designing our own unique sweet/chocolate bar.
