Grandparents' Lunch

A huge thank you to all the grandparents who joined us for lunch today. We were thrilled at the turn out. Some travelled great distances to be there to support their grandchildren. We had attendees from London, Kent and even all the way from Sheffield! A great time was had by all and the children so enjoy showing off their classrooms and all their work.

Share Day in Class 1

On 23rd September Suffolk Share helped Class One organise a special day where parents and carers came into the school to share a fabulous morning of activities with their children. I think it is fair to say that we all had a lot of fun and everyone made fabulous pirate accessories for the children to play with and learn about being a proper pirate.

Book Club in Class 3

This week a new 'Book Club' began in Class 3. Each pupil was given a colourful folder, notebook and pen. The book we are reading is 'Kensuke's Kingdom' by Michael Morpurgo. Ten pupils are taking part in the first book club at Charsfield and everyone is very enthusiastic. The book club is an initiative to promote reading at school by making it a fun, social event where ideas and opinions can be aired.

School Council 2010

This week the new school council had their first meeting. We discussed a new whole school initiative to promote the government's '5 A Day' fruit and vegetable scheme. The school council decided to launch a poster competition with entries in by 27th September, the date of the next school council meeting. Remember you can talk to your class representative if you have any issues you think the school council should discuss.

Mr. Peatfield and Miss Sandal from the High School Sports Partnership came in this Monday and worked with Class 3, helping them to learn games that they can go on to teach younger members of the school, encouraging team work, cooperation and leadership skills.

We have become amazing storytellers..!

Last week Classes 2 and 3 were lucky enough to have a storytelling workshop every morning. Chip, Gloria and Tilda from Snail Tales, started the week by telling an amazing story. Over the week we learned how to share and interprate our ideas into stories of our own. It was a real priviledge to have them in school and the children learned a lot and got a huge amount of enjoyment out of the week.

Welcome to Class One

Charsfield would like to welcome the new children to Class One.

The children have been taking part in a new initiative called 'Gym Trail' which aims to help focus their minds and prepare them for concentrating.

They have been getting better at the tasks each day.
