Hello and welcome!

Our Christian Value for the term

Justice

Our school value for this term is ‘Justice’. Justice means more than making things ‘fair’. In order for people to live together happily, in a just community, it is important to have rules or laws that everybody sticks to. Imagine if there were no rules for people driving cars on the road!

Justice means giving all people what it is right and fair for them to have: life, health, freedom and dignity. It is about acting out of a concern for what is right.

Justice means taking turns and sharing, playing by the rules, accepting responsibility, avoiding blaming others when we have done something wrong, and listening to the ideas of others. Our special bible story this term is "The Rich Man and Lazarus". We will be learning how to show justice ourselves as well as being able to recognise other people who show justice.

All of the children and adults in school will be recognising children who demonstrate an understanding of justice, both inside and outside of school. This is rewarded and celebrated at the end of term in our special Values Celebration Worship.

Our Learning this Term

We love learning in the Beetles!

This term we are continuing to follow our children's interests and using their wonderful ideas to enhance our learning! Now the weather is getting better we have been gardening with Mrs Soulsby. We have also explored dinosaurs, fairies, lego spaceships, superhero headquarters, Mr Men and Little Miss and police officers to name a few ideas! We have also been enjoying extra lessons such as MSP and Forest Schools. We have continued to retell our favourite stories using our Talk 4 Writing signs- Phew! Super busy but super fun! So as the weather continues to get brighter outside, so do our smiles!
