Good evening,

What a fantastic day ‘world book day’ was! It was wonderful sharing our favourite books dressed as famous characters. We spent the day focused on traditional tales this year, which started with an ‘Masked Reader’ assembly and finished with an operatic performance of Hansel and Gretal by Eagle class! Each child will receive a world book day book voucher which they can use in exchange for a free book; this year we will hand these out in time for our book fayre in a couple of weeks time.

Thank you to Merlin Class for a fabulous assembly today. It was great to hear about your learning this term. Thank you to those that managed to join us.

We all hope Eagle class have a wonderful week in Arthog next week. They have an exciting week of outdoor adventurous activities planned including canoeing, rock climbing and gorge walking. Enjoy making fantastic memories with your friends.

Next week, in school, we are all looking forward to a jam-packed week of science. For this extra-curricular week classes will be taught by different teachers:

• Little Owls will be taught by Ms Mullock.
• Kestrels will be taught by Mrs Cooper.
• Merlins will be taught by Mrs Edgerton.

All classes will have familiar adults (TAs) working with them for consistency. Please could Little Owls and Kestrels make sure they have their PE kit on Monday and Wednesday next week.

We can’t wait for next week! Have a lovely weekend.

Mrs L. Edgerton

We would like the children of Longnor to get creative and design a logo / badge for the Lawley Leap. The winning design will be printed onto the entry t-shirts and shared wide and far to publicise this fantastic new event.

Please see attached template below:

The winning design will be one that reflects the event. Bold ideas are preferred rather than intricate designs.

All entries need to be entered by Friday 14th February.

Good luck!

Good evening,

We’ve had another busy week!

Eagle class had a brilliant day on Friday at their STEM glider workshop. They were given all the resources and had to carefully design the gliders before testing them. They even applied their mathematics to calculate the speed of the gliders. Well done Eagles!

Well done to the dodgeball team from Eagle class who competed at Church Stretton in the area competition. They worked really well together and all demonstrated respect for each other and the sport.

Thank you to Concord College for visiting on Wednesday to share their showcase of dances and festivals from around the world. We learnt about festivals in Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. It was fantastic to be able to ask questions about their culture.

We all hope that you have a lovely weekend. Please remember to sign up for a parents’ evening meeting slot in preparation for our meetings the week beginning the 10th February.

All the best.

Mrs L. Edgerton
