Trelawney Spring Update

Home Learning

Well done to everyone in Trelawny who has brought in excellent work for our show and tell on Fridays. Take a look at our amazing work which is on display outside Trengrouse class.

Jabberwocky- Beware the Jabberwock my son…

Trelawny began the term mask making and writing character descriptions of the Jabberwocky and the Tum Tum tree. .

Oliver

We are currently working on a joint literacy topic with Trengrouse class focussed on Oliver Twist. Part of our work includes our version of ‘Oliver’ which we will show in assembly on Thursday 14th February at 10.10am. Please do some along and enjoy our assembly. 

Reading bands

As you know Trelawny class are working towards reading belts based on the amount of times they read or share a book. The belts are given out in celebration assembly and it is pleasing to see so many children gaining their white, yellow or orange belt!

Belts are exchanged for a higher belt once all signatures have been gained for the next colour. Please give your odd belt to Mrs Davis when you are due your next colour. 

Terrific Times tables

After half term the children will be awarded bronze, silver, gold, platinum or a merit award for learning and knowing their times tables with speed and accuracy. Times tables feature regularly within our maths such as calculating fractions of amounts or finding the area of a shape so it is crucial that children can recall these facts.

Suggested websites to help support your child will be included on your child’s spelling lists after half term. 

Spellings

Well done to all the super Trelawny spellers this half term. Spellings for the 2nd half of term will be given out after half term. Spellings are linked to our weekly phonics work which is supporting your child’s reading and writing. Children have a spelling test each Thursday.

After half term…

 Our literacy topics after half term will be writing explanations  all about the Water cycle, steam power and the Victorians.

We will also be researching Victorian Easter traditions.

Trelawny Parents evening – Tuesday 5th March 2013

Children from Trelawny class will have the opportunity to meet with both Mrs Davis and Miss Radcliffe to talk about your child’s progress. Details will follow.  

Have a great half term.

Mrs Davis

Perranporth School Newsletter 8th February 2013

Dear Parents/Carers

Thank you to all those who attended the “Safe Surfing” drop in on Monday. The children have had Internet Safety lessons this week. Miss Roberson took an assembly on Internet Safety and Father Caspar took Collective Worship on Tuesday. School Governors are visiting lessons and staff over the next week.

Sport

The football team won their match against Summercourt

 

Cake Sale

Penhaligon Cake Sale last Friday raised £67.50. Many thanks to all involved. No sale next week as it’s a non-pupil day.

 

FOPS Meeting

Next meeting will be after school on Monday 11th February in Miss Radcliffe’s classroom. All welcome.

 

BAG2SCHOOL collection day Tuesday 12th February from the Parents Shelter.

Don’t forget it’s bag2shool collection day next Tuesday 12th. All children have now been given a collection bag. Please fill with good quality adult and child clothes, bedding, hats, bags, cuddly toys, shoes tied together. Bags should be left in the Parents Shelter on that morning. A van will take them from the school and we are paid by weight. If you fill your bag and still have more to donate then simply use a bin bag – they still count! It’s a great opportunity for a clear out and to help raise funds for the school. Ask your friends and neighbours too!!

 

Muddy Path

I apologise for the state of the path outside St Piran’s Class. This is due to the new building works and I have been in contact with County regarding this on several occasions so hopefully it will soon be resolved.

 

Aspirations Day 14th February

The children have been asked to come to school dressed as what they aspire to be/have as a career. This should be great fun.

 

Staff Training

A reminder that there is a non-pupil day on Friday 15th February so that the staff can join other local schools for training.

 

Future Dates

NON-PUPIL DAY – 15TH FEBRUARY

HALF TERM – 18TH – 22ND FEBRUARY

END OF TERM – 28TH MARCH
