Perfect presentation progress provides pupils with pens! Last week’s Forest school basked under the sunshine while they gardened, cooked 3 course meals on the fire, and crafted clocks measuring with protractors (yes really!) to get the right number of degrees between the notches!
The art work in Y5 this week was inspirational as you can see from some of the examples in the photos below. And animal therapy club welcomed Halloumi the French Bulldog with laughs all round at her cute antics! Another typical week at CVPS – where nothing is really typical!
We are delighted that the children have shown huge steps of progress in their presentation this term even though we have only had four weeks of school. Last week was our first batch of pen licence awards which we celebrated as part of our achievement assembly on Friday. The children with a pen licence get to choose a black pen that they feel suits their writing best, from Melissa’s special box! Well done to our perfect presenters!

Harvest Tues 15th Oct at 1.45pm
Thank you so much to the families who have brought in food to start our usual annual collection of donations for the local food bank. The Hope Centre in Cramlington supports many families in the area and they are looking for donations. Let us know if you would like contact details if you ever need support from the food banks – the Trussel Trust run some video information on their websites that explains how food banks have helped some families with their needs when they most needed it. The very long list on the next page is what they like to collect for the food
bank.
