“She always tells the truth when someone asks a question and always wants to encourage people with her kind words.”

“She is a kind and loving friend as she always cares for others.”

We were really impressed by Logan in our PE lesson this week.  He had a fantastic attitude towards the whole lesson and really demonstrated excellent listening throughout.  Even when he was finding it a little hard, Logan was resilient and kept persevering.  He was a fantastic partner throughout the whole lesson, encouraging them to try the different moves and, by the end of the lesson, felt so confident, he wanted to demonstrate what he had done to the rest of the class.  Logan, we are incredibly proud of you!

Friday 18th November 2022

Our star this week is the sensational...  Seena!

It is impossible not to smile when you say Seena’s name as she brings joy to the classroom every day and in every lesson.  Regardless of the subject, Seena gives 100% but we have seen this especially in Maths where she shows resilience and a steely determination to truly understand the lesson and apply this in her work.

Seena is a fantastic role model, not only to those in our class but for everyone in our school and we are incredibly proud of her!

In every piece of work that Hattie does, she thinks carefully about what she’s going to write and always gives 100%.  This is especially evident in her RE work, which is always highly reflective and beautifully presented.  Her work this week on the Sacrament of the Sick and the Apostles was a joy to read.

Hattie is a shining example of many of our Catholic Virtues and I am delighted to give her star of the week this week!

Friday 7th October 2022

Our star this week, as chosen by the children, was...  Cean!  
This week, the children were on the look out for a star who demonstrated the catholic virtues of compassionate and loving.  They were told they had to think about ways in which this person had demonstrated it during the week and we were definitely delighted with their response.  Cean was nominated as the star for the week and the children explained how.

“He helps me, is kind and shows compassion to others.”

“When I’m upset, he cheers me up and makes me laugh.”

“He lets me play lots of games and play on his team.”

“He helps people, shows kindness, comforts people when they are hurt and is a good team player.”

Cean, you are a very worthy star who always keeps us on our toes, never fails to make us smile and always wants to get involved in everything in the class.  You should be very proud of yourself... well done!

Friday 30th September 2022

Our star of the week this week is the jubilent... James.

James has really hit the ground running in Year 5 and demonstrated all the characteristics of an excellent team player and someone who wants to do well.  Right from the beginning, he has worked hard to challenge himself in the lessons and his work is always very well considered and thought out.  As we have been focusing on presentation, James was an obvious choice as he always takes pride in his work and his work is beautifully presented.  We know, with this fantastic attitude, James will go from strength to strength this year and we can't wait to see what he achieves in Year 5.  Well done James!

Our star of the week this week is the wonderful... Tara.

Tara has had a fabulous start to this new academic year and we have really seen her shining and growing in confidence in each lesson.  She works hard in every lesson and it is clear this work ethic goes home too.  Following our lesson on Baghdad being a centre of learning, Tara took the initiative to go home and do some extra work on this subject.  We were presented with a beautiful poster showing arabic words and their translations into English.  This initiative and desire to want to do more is exactly the reason we chose her for our first 'Star of the Week' in Year 5.  Well done Tara!
