Macmillan Coffee Morning:        Thank you to all of our parents, family and friends, who attended our coffee morning on Friday 26^th September and ensured that it was a great success. The children did not miss out on the cake sale and enjoyed buying a cake (or two) to support Macmillan during the day.

 

Parents’ Evening: Thank you to everyone who attended the ‘settling in’ parents’ evening on Thursday 25^th September. It is important that we meet with you throughout the year so that we can update you with your child’s life at school. There will be a further parents’ evening later on this term, where you will be invited to make an appointment to find out more information about your child’s progress and attainment.

 

Year 1’s Local Walk:  On Tuesday 23^rd September, both Year 1 classes went on a local walk as part of their geography learning. They became cartographers (map makers) and decided which symbols to draw on their own map of the local area. The children decided to make a symbol for Moat House School, St Chad's Church and the Wood End Chippy. They drew some great maps and understood the importance of maps being accurate for people to follow. They were all superbly behaved. 

 

Fire Safety in Year 4: On Friday 19^th September, Year 4 were visited by firefighters from Foleshill Fire Station. They talked to the children about fire, road and water safety. They helped the children to identify potential hazards, taught them what to do in an emergency and the important stop, drop and roll technique. Afterwards, they answered lots of the children’s questions too. Did you know that if you do not have a smoke alarm in your home, the fire service will fit one for you, free of charge? All you need to do, is call the fire station and they’ll come out to your home. They’ll also fix any broken or faulty smoke alarms too!
