The St Teresa’s Reading Hero bags have been launched this week! Each class have a bag of specially selected books for pupils to take home to enjoy reading! We can’t wait to hear about the books they have read and the worlds they have been transported to!
Our School Councillors went out onto the streets of our community to help Keep Britain Tidy! The pupils walked up Malins Road and Greenly Road and collected litter on the pathways we use every day. Pupils learnt the importance of mutual respect, looking after our community, and keeping it clean and tidy.
The School Council voted to carry the litter pick out on a regular basis and will be out cleaning the streets in a few weeks time.
Well done School Council.
What a way to start our Friday! Our 8:30am Friday Mile club gathered on the field to enjoy fresh air and exercise. We welcomed two new teachers this week too plus, many more Y5 and Y6 children and #SoccerCoaching2000 Well done team Friday Mile!
Class teachers will soon be sending you this term’s letter with the knowledge, concepts and vocabulary that your child will be learning this term. If you see something like ‘Modal Verb’ or ‘Partitioning’ a fantastic website to use is Oxford Owl – it explains all the National Curriculum Objectives for parents and suggests little activities to help your child at home. CLICK HERE. There is also a free E-Book Library on Oxford Owl. Remember you can also speak to staff at school or email the class teacher.
Lots of amazing family learning projects from the Easter holidays are arriving in school each day. Keep bringing in your Easter Gardens this week ready for our Museum on Tuesday 27th April. We will be holding democratic votes to see who wins 1st and 2nd prize in each category.
Throughout the Holy Week, each class led the school through the Stations of the Cross with scripture readings and prayer. Well done pupils for being so reverent as we walk through the footsteps of Jesus.

This week, pupils are undertaking a sponsored walk to raise money for the Good Shepherd Appeal by Father Hudson’s Care. They need to walk the mile course that has been designed and measured by the Year 6 pupils. The children start within the school playground and then venture out of the school premises and down Malins Road before returning to school and continuing around the school perimeter.

Pupils in Year 3, 4 and 5 have been participating in a fun and exciting maths programme called ‘Maths on the Move’ which is delivered by RB Gym & Sport. This is a unique and innovative programme that uses the concept of physically active learning to enhance children’s confidence and attainment in maths. The programme covers all learning outcomes of the maths curriculum for KS2.
Pupils are actively engaged in the sessions and look forward to the challenges each week.
