Friendship Week

Class 4 have covered a range of different issues and participated in a range of activities throughout this week to celebrate Friendship Week. 

Firstly, thank you to all the Friendship Ambassadors who have organised such a great range of activities for the whole school to enjoy this week.  From a disco, to car racing to friendship bracelet making, it is fair to say that that there was something for everybody to enjoy at play times.  

In class, the Year 4 children enjoyed playing different games to promote the importance of friendship and the qualities and values involved.  They also enjoyed creating a jigsaw with different pictures and messages about their friends. 

Whilst this was happening, the Year 5 children were considering the values of friendship during our monthly Oaks and Acorns session.  Linked to friendship and remembrance day last week, we designed cards that would have been sent to family and friends during the war years.  We are pleased to be involved with the Project that Wendy Shepherd is organising in Fordham village for the war memorial and we hope these cards will be part of the exhibition that will run at the end of the project.      

Finally in class, we used the theme of friendship to revisit the very important theme of e-safety.  We watched the CEOP video which helped us think about who are our friends on line and how we can use the internet safely with our friends.  For further information, there are some useful resources for parents at www.thinkuknow.co.uk.  

Wishing you all a happy weekend and come prepared next week for Powerdown Week!!
