From the desk of Mr Crawley

Happy Friday!

It's been a brilliant week here at Rodings with the start of our new CREATE units in classrooms, as well as beginning our swimming lessons! As it's sports day today I will keep this as brief as possible, but there are a few important things to make you aware of

 

Relationship and Sex Education Information Evening

Next Wednesday (15th June) I will be holding an information evening where I will be explaining our Relationship and Sex Education curriculum (for Years 1 to 6). I will be explaining what will be taught in class, showing the resources we use and talking about how you can support at home. The evening will begin at 7:00pm at the school.

 

Non-uniform day - Friday 17th June 2022

Next Friday will be a non-uniform day, in support of our Summer Fun Day. We are asking for a donation of the following items:

  • Goslings and Year 1 - A cake
  • Years 2 to 6 - Tombola prizes

Please can these be brought into school on the Friday. 

 

Kiss and Drop

Over the past week we have noticed that some children are being dropped off before 8:30 and left on their own. Children should not be left unattended before the school doors open as this is a safeguarding issue. 

 

I hope you all have a lovely weekend, and I'm looking forward to seeing you next week. 

Mr. C

When studying the Romans Emilia and her Dad decided to hike along Hadrian’s wall. Due to catching Covid last year,  they could only walk for 3 days in October covering one half of the 85 mile path. During the last half term they completed the 2nd half walking further 3 days. Highlights were Sycamore gap and seeing ‘angry sheep’. 

Well done Emilia, this is a fantastic achievement :-)


On the 3rd of June, maddy, Freddie, Max and Mckenzie helped birth four beautiful and healthy kittens. They were all so helpful we couldn’t be prouder of them.

Mum and babies are all doing amazingly!

 

Well done to you all, how beautiful :-)
