Summer

With the impending sunny weather, we are asking all parents to ensure that your children are fully protected from the sun’s rays, e.g. by applying sun tan lotion. (please note teachers are not allowed to do this). Children also need to be wearing a hat for protection.

A Pirate Day Party!
Year 2 children were looking at the topic Islands
last half term. The childre did lots of research on
different islands. In visual literacy - the children
watched Nims Island and Hook to support us in
our pirate adventure writing. During shared
reading, Year 2  used the Oxford Owl online
reading books which can be accessed by
oxfordowl.o.uk. In Art the children had the most
fun creating modroc islands. It was great getting
messy!!  To celebrate all their hard work, Year 2
thought it would be a good idea to have a pirate
day party! We created telescopes, pirate hats,
learnt new pirate songs with Mrs Firth , participated
in pirate role play and learnt the recorder with the
student teacher Miss Kovacs. The fun didn't end
there.... Mrs Whitehouse from Year 4 and Mrs Sajdah
supported the children in making and decorating
pirate cakes!! The children's parents were invited
to come into school and look at the hard work the
children had completed during their topic work, as
well as having a slice of pirate cake!!

Take a look at our work in the school Gallery!
 
World Book Day
Today was World Book Day. To celebrate we had an
assembly, children and staff dressed up as a character
from a book. Some staff read a story from their favourite
book. One of our parents read a story in her home
language; Urdu. Mr Powell and Mr Storrod dressed
up as charters from Cinderella and acted this out for
the children. We also had competitions and paired
reading going on through out the school. Please visit
our photo gallery or click here to see photos from
today’s events.

Instructions
In year one we have been learning about instructions.
We have made some great pictures and models by
following instructions and we have gave instructions
to our friends to help them walk around an obstacle
course. We have also been writing instructions for
how to make cornflake cakes. We then made them
by weighing the ingredients. They were yummy!

Spotlight on Attendance
A very important message for all parents

Dear Parent,

Deykin Avenue J & I School are working in partnership with parents to improve school attendance.   We would like to congratulate the many parents who make sure their children attend school regularly.  

It is parent’s legal responsibility to ensure their children receive
appropriate education.  Failing to send your child to school regularly
without good reason is a criminal offence.

Awards

Congratulations Mrs Phelan


Jayne Phelan completed her foundation degree whilst working as a nursery
manager. "It was definitely a challenge to juggle work and study with my other
personal commitments, but having studied the qualifi-cation, I now appreciate
how important it is for early years professionals to be more consistent in the
way they engage with others in a day or social care setting.
"My lecturers were also really helpful and supportive and that madea real
difference to how well I was able to progress in my studies."
