Hi Team AC, Please see the attached video Miss Garratt has created. It will give you some help in responding to activities we have posted on Seesaw. Hopefully, it might support you with completing activities and sending finished pieces back to us. Take care, Mrs Allen and Mrs Crossfield

As a school, we are committed to ensuring your child gets the best possible education that we can offer. The current circumstances are proving to be a bit of a challenge for us all and we know that education is quite difficult at the moment whilst we are facing this pandemic. With this in mind, we have subscribed to the online platform ‘SeeSaw’. SeeSaw is a platform that allows teachers to set home learning for each child in their class. Over the next few days, you will be receiving an email (with an attachment of the document below) that provides you with more information about how Seesaw works and how we are going to use it as a school. You will also receive your child's log on details in this email. Please look out for this arriving in your inboxes. As of Monday 27th April 2020, all learning and activities will be placed on Seesaw and not on class blog pages. Although we will continue to post blogs regularly, we will not be using them to the extent that we have done over the past few weeks, Many thanks for your cooperation and understanding.
Did you know that today, April 23rd, is St George's Day?
Have a look at the RE blog page for some interesting facts about St George and some web sites you could look at for more information. You could try some of the activities and even have your own St George's day celebration! Life and parenting can be challenging in normal situations. The situation we find ourselves in currently is far from normal. We have put together a number of useful links and documents, as well as advice on how to deal with some difficult situations you might find ourselves in. Please take a look at the information below and do not hesitate to contact school if you would like any additional information regarding these topics or anything else you need advice and support about - if we cannot help, we will know who can.
Lots of you seemed to enjoy our history topic, all about the Great Fire of London, in the Spring term so if you like history head over to the History blog on our school website for some information and ideas to try over the next few weeks. Let us know what you discover!
It's so important for your health to keep as fit and active as you can, especially as the weather is so good at the moment. Here are a few ideas to try at home or in the garden!
Hi everyone - today is World Earth Day 'This is the day and time of year to focus on ways every one of us can learn more about how amazing our world is and how important it is that we act to stop climate change and look after our planet.' Here are some websites with activities that you might want to try! https://www.hamilton-trust.org.uk/topics/key-stage-1-topics/raising-awareness-days/earth-day/ https://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/earth-day-home-learning-pack-5-7-t-lf-2548998 On the twinkl website there is a live link at 2pm this afternoon!

Hello Team AC another lovely sunny morning! Here is your maths for today. Have a go at some of these activities. Don't forget to have a look around your house and garden for things that you could use to help. Year 1 - today we are looking at making equal groups - grouping. Look on BBC Bitesize to help! https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zqbg87h/articles/z9jxhv4
Year 2 - today we are looking at halving - finding a half of something. Look on BBC Bitesize to help! https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z3rbg82
Remember to make it as fun as you can that way you will remember it and learn more!
Enjoy! Sir Linkalot (which is a fantastic app to support spelling) is kindly giving all parents and schools free access during lockdown to enable children of all ages (4 years old upwards) to have Sir Linkalot Time at home. There will be a daily midweek 30 minute show online, starting this Thursday at 2 o'clock, on Sir Linkalot's Facebook page and Youtube channel, featuring Countdown's Susie Dent. There are two obvious benefits in using this whilst children are currently learning form home: one, it would most definitely raise their literacy levels and, two, it would make life a whole lot easier for you! It is not solely for spelling, however. It's covering the whole of the technical requirements of literacy, i.e vocabulary, homophones, punctuation, grammar, rules and patterns. So, it very much applies to older children as well.
To access the content, you can do this in one of two ways, either downloading via the App Store or on a laptop/PC. Please note, once you have downloaded the app from the App Store (small problem with Androids at the mo), tap on the log icon (for 'Log in') at the top right. You can also view it on a laptop or PC. Type in the browser itself (not a search engine)... app.sirlinkalot.org and follow the above instructions (the log icon is for 'log in'). Further information of log on details will be sent out electronically. Keep up your super spelling :) We wanted to let you know about a Kickstarter campaign that has been launched. The campaign is the #SeeSportyBeSporty Girls and Sport Poster Campaign. At Park Street, we want to help spread the word to children and parents who might like to support it too.
The link to the campaign is: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/totallyrunable/seesportybesporty-role-models-posters-of-girls We’ve attached an at-home task and competition. It would be great if we had some entries from our school. If you want to take part in the competition, email or tweet us a picture of your poster and we will send it to Totally Runable for you.
