More news and things…..
On your bike! A Pre-Pedal course has been organised together with Transport for Greater Manchester and delivered by Bike Right in our school on Tuesday 1st March. This course will provide some excellent tips to help adults support their children to learn to ride and have fun on wheels and is designed to help children aged 2-6. Bike Right will be donating 4 balancing bikes, one for our bike club (every Friday) and 3 for our Foundation unit.
8 x 500 = 4000 = WOW! Eight of our year 5 children have been working hard over the last 6 weeks at Writing Club and have submitted their entries into Radio 2’s ‘500 Words’ competition. The children are Matthew, Erin, Precious, Tiviyan, Anu, Ruby, Edward and Onyeka. We wish them well.
Easter Raffle There will be an Easter Raffle with lots of prizes to be won, including two cash prizes and Easter Eggs. Tickets cost 20p each and will be sold daily throughout this half term and are also available from Mrs Edwards.
