Sensational Skylarks wish you a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Skylarks truly have been SENSATIONAL this term and they have blown me away with their tremendous attitude and incredible effort towards their learning! Thank you to all the help and support from parents and carers at home, we could not have done it without you! :) Below are a few pictures to show you what we have been up to this past week...

We have carried on with our well-being calendar. On Day 13 we created our own Christmas story as a class which everybody contributed a sentence towards and the children have produce some incredible drawings to illustrate the story...

Day 19 was all about being grateful and we create a gratitude tree as a class. We all contributed to it by writing 3 things we were grateful for on a tag and hanging it on the tree. Skylarks blew me away with how kind a thoughtful they were and showed just how grateful they were about so many wonderful things.

Skylarks were also rewarded with their class party by showing fantastic behaviour and outstanding work this half term and collected all our fuzzy balls! Skylarks got creative this time with a WINTER CRAFTS PARTY :) Take a peak below at what we got up to...

And finally our SPECTACULAR CHRISTMAS PLAY! Skylarks were transformed in dancing and singing Christmas Elves! :) They sang their hearts out and I was so proud at how well they learnt the sign language for the song. They put on such a magical performance! Take a look at some of these marvellous moments...

Finally we wish you a very Merry Christmas from all of Sensational Skylarks and the Year 3 Team! :)

The Greatest Show!

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Church Service

Thanks to those of you who attended and supported our Church service at the Ascension in Bitterne on Monday. Our pupils sang and read brilliantly, of course, and it was a lovely moment of reflection around Christmas in the perfect of settings. Thanks to the Revs Will and Andy, and their team, for hosting us.

Advent that makes a difference

This year in Skylarks we have an advent calendar that is slightly different this year...it is all about our well-being!

Each day has an activity for us to do, such as thinking of 3 good things that have happened this week or saying thank you to someone that day. There have been such wonderful and kind activities to do and Skylarks can't wait to see what's next!

Fund Raising & Helping the Environment

This is an amazing news story about one of our pupils who has been raising money for the school by helping clean up our local area. I was totally overwhelmed to hear that Zach had raised over £400 for his school by collecting litter, in his own words, to help reduce plastic and helping all the animals. All of this in his own time and on his initiative. What an inspiration to be able to do something that helps the environment and raises money for others. He should be very proud, as we all are, of his efforts. I'd like to thank him for his contribution to the school and for showing what a big difference can be made when you put your mind to it, no matter how big or small you are.
