Today, Tuesday, 11 February 2020, we celebrate Safer Internet Day (SID) We thought we’d share some useful resources to highlight the dangers of some popular apps and show how parents & carers can ensure children use them safely.

This is Miss Evans’ class enjoying their ‘Going for Gold’ prize! The class enjoyed hot chocolate in their PJs and a film together because they were last term’s winners of our reading challenge. This is to encourage children to read once a day and record it in their reading records. We check the records and award a tick on the chart for every day they read. Let’s see who the winners will be this term!

A reminder that Parent Consultations are on Wednesday and Thursday this week - if you are unsure of your appointment time please ask the office staff or your child's teacher. Enrichment activities will run each night as planned.

📚This week we have been taking part in #nationalstorytellingweek. We have paired up with different year groups and read lots of stories to each other. It’s been a wonderful success and hugely beneficial to all the children to share the special act of storytelling with children of different ages. Maybe your children could read to siblings, neighbours, family or friends?... when they do, we’d love it if you could share some photos with us! 📚

Friday, 7 February

Encounters. Tomorrow, Tuesday 4th February, will be the first in a new series of monthly talks held in the Institute of everything at Clifton Green Primary School. The talks will be wide-ranging in terms of subject matter and tone as they are driven by the guests we welcome to tell their stories. It will be a relaxed atmosphere and refreshments will be provided. Clifton Green’s very own Reem Yasouf will be hosting the first ‘Encounters’ tomorrow at 3.30pm. Everyone is welcome. Please enter through the double doors directly from the school car park into the old Kingswater Hall. We expect the finish time to be around 4.15pm. ☕️It would be wonderful to see you there! ☕️
