Myton Hospice Fundraiser:       On Friday 31^st January, we invited our children to come into school wearing their favourite colour, in exchange for a donation of 50p for Myton Hospice, following the special assembly we held last week. Every child who made a donation received a raffle ticket and one ticket was pulled out of the hat – the lucky winner was Carter (Year 4) and he has received the special Myton Hospice Monty Bear prize. Thank you to everyone who contributed.

 

Workshop for Young Carers:     On Wednesday 29^th January, we welcomed Kelly to Moat House, who led an assembly to our Key Stage 2 children to raise awareness about recognising if you could be a Young Carer and how they support their families. Some of our Young Carers participated in a workshop where they played some fun games and were introduced to a range of activities that they could become involved in eg: cooking club and even day trips to the seaside. The children will have come home with a postcard with a link to enable parents to give permission for the children to access these activities on offer. 

 

Open Morning in Reception:      On Wednesday 29^th January, we invited parents and carers to come into school to find out about how we teach phonics at Moat House. Parents were then given the opportunity to watch their child being taught phonics in their small group. The morning then finished with a fun craft based session, which also included some tasty themed treats, whilst children and parents enjoyed celebrating the Lunar New Year.
