Happy summer holidays!

Posted on Sunday 21 July 2024 by Mrs Latham

Thank you for all your support this year.

We all had a blast at the beach party and it was actually warm.

Have a (hopefully) sunny summer holiday!

Mrs Latham, Miss Young, Mrs Brown and Mrs Wilkins.

 

Beach party fun

Posted on Friday 19 July 2024 by Miss Young

We had a fantastic time at the beach party yesterday. We were very lucky with the weather. Thank you to my fantastic class for a wonderful year. Enjoy some photographs from yesterday.

Summer disco

Posted on Sunday 14 July 2024 by Mrs Latham

Everyone had a great time at the disco on Friday – hopefully raising lots of funds for FOSP (Friends of Scholes Primary). They are always looking for new members to help (in a small or big way). Contact the school office if you’d like to join.

We were too busy doing the conga to take photos during the disco but managed to get a couple at the end (sweets and drinks are the favourite part, anyway).

First Aid

Posted on Wednesday 10 July 2024 by Miss Young

Calling 999 is serious business. We know we only call 999 in emergencies. Today 1/2B and 2C had a special visitor who came to talk to us about when we might need to call 999., particularly if we want to get through to a hospital. If someone is seriously poorly and needs urgent medical attention, we can call 999 and ask for an ambulance.

We then had a go at drawing our own ambulances and we added some extra bits that we thought might make them even better for patients.

Remember – calling 999 is never a joke!

Scholes in Bloom

Posted on Wednesday 10 July 2024 by Mrs Latham

Some children went out to meet the Britain in Bloom judges this week. The winner of the ‘design a flowerbed’ competition came to talk about their design. We also told them about plants we have grown and our beautiful wildlife garden. We hope they were impressed!

Living and learning : Staying Safe week (Canal and River Trust visitor)

Posted on Wednesday 10 July 2024 by Mrs Latham

We had a visitor from the Canal and River Trust today in Key Stage 1. She told us about how to stay safe near water using the letters from the word SAFE : Stay Away from the Edge

The children were very knowledgeable and answered the questions sensibly. They know that they shouldn’t play near water alone, float like a starfish if they fall in, use a life belt to help someone and call 999.

Help at home by talking to your child about water safety.
