ROBINS STRIKE
On Friday 5th February 2021 the Robins decided to go on strike to get others to take notice and make changes to help protect the planet. Well done Robins!
Thank you to everyone that came to the strike gathering this morning!
Some of the Robins wrote letters and made pictures for the people who collect our recycling at school. These were sent to Norse Waste Solutions and this is the lovely response we received:
On the first day back at school after Christmas the Robins found litter in the outside area. We talked about why littering was a problem and went on a litter pick around the rest of the school. Some very observant Robins suggested that if there were more bins outside then people might not litter as much. The children then decided to write a letter to Mrs Welch who explained that if they wrote to The Friends they might be able to help. So that is what they did! Please read the response below…
Voting has now closed and I can reveal that the Robins have voted for the school to get a new ladybird bin!
Your home learning last week was fantastic, Robins. It was great to see you reusing items that would otherwise be thrown away. Both Mrs Welch and myself were really impressed with your thoughtful picture prayers. Well done!

We have all had a lot of fun this week learning about Diwali. We found out that Diwali is celebrated by Hindus and it is a festival of light. We really enjoyed listening to the story of Rama and Sita although some of us said we thought Ravana was a bit scary. We all made diva lamps which we will bring home to show our adults on Monday.
This week we also took part in the school active challenge and made Miss Larter really proud by scooting through the rain and getting back on our scooters when we fell off. We were a fantastic team and showed great determination and resilience.
