As the year comes to an end it is a time of reflection. The “World Cup” came to Cheswardine last month, with our Year 2 children winning the KS1 tournament. They played really well, only letting in one goal. The children represented the school well.

Thank you to everybody that bought books at the recent “Book Fair”, from the sales we were able to purchase £187 of books for our class libraries.

Your children may have told you about the new “Nature’s Gym” that is within or wooded area. This is the start of a new exciting project that we hope to add gym equipment throughout the next year. We would like to thank Mr Wilson and his band of workers for working to produce a good area to play in. Our sponsored school event raised nearly £500, which will be used to purchase further equipment for this development. We are awaiting the outcome of two bids, to determine how much equipment we can purchase.

Our sports teams have achieved a lot this year; competing in the Level 3 event in rounders, Level 2 events in athletics and archery, a year 3 child represented North Shropshire in the cross country event and a year 6 children represented North Shropshire in the swimming gala. The children in the school show great sportsmanship and will try their best in whatever event they are taking part in.

The school play will be performed this week, giving all children a role within it. We can use this activity when we apply for the “Artsmark Award”. The children are trying their best in the hot conditions that we have endured recently. Our “Boy’s Dance” group have contributed towards our application.

I would like to wish all our Year 6 pupils the best for their future education and I hope to hear good things about you. Have a good summer break and we shall see everybody on Wednesday 5th September.

Nursery News

We really enjoyed Sports Day with the whole School.

On our last day we are having a Graduation to say ‘Goodbye’ and ‘Good luck’ to the children moving on to ‘Big School’. We would like to thank all of our Parents and Carers who have supported us over the last year. We really appreciate all of the help and support that you give us. We would also like to say

‘Goodbye’ to those Parents who will now be moving to School with their last child. Thank you for your support through the years. WE WILL MISS YOU!

Leanne, Claire, Lisa and Cathy

 Please remember that we have a Nursery library where children are encouraged to borrow books to take home and share with parents and carers.

 We also have a suggestions / comments box in the foyer where parents and carers are encouraged to write down any suggestions or comments that they have regarding any aspect of Nursery.

 Please check out our Facebook page and don’t forget to like and share our page so that more people can learn about our Nursery.

 Please don’t forget to use www.easyfundraising.org.uk/cheswardinenursery when shopping online. By using this page online you will be raising valuable funds for our Nursery at no extra cost to yourself.

 We would like to remind all parents / carers that children need coats and wellies (all clearly named) for outdoor play and learning activities, as well as a clearly named bag containing a spare set of clothes for Nursery as we provide ‘Messy play’ daily.

 As it is Summer Term all children are expected to bring a cap to Nursery as without one they will have to play in the woods at lunch time. Thank you.
