• Welly Wednesday 1

  Wed 20 Oct 2021 Mrs Hutchins

  Look at our first Welly Wednesday. Everyone in school took part and we started with a Welly Wednesday Worship on the playground. We created 2 new prayer areas which are already in use and what a difference everyone has made to our school grounds; new labyrinth, planters full of beautiful flowers and bulbs ready for spring; areas tidy and allocated for classes and even recycled bamboo and willow crosses were made for our prayer garden. 

  We all had a great time working well together Growing in knowledge, faith and God's love and showing what a special place Cockerham school is and what a fabulous team we are part of here at school. 

  

• Reception Coffee morning

  Wed 06 Oct 2021

  Reception had a lovely afternoon with parents coming to see their children in school. The children sang Five Little Ducks and Five Speckled Frogs to their Mums, Dads and grandparents. The children decorated biscuits and gave them to parents. They also decorated the top to the jars of chutney that Mrs. Foy had made from the fruit grown in our school grounds.

  We had a super afternoon.

  It is amazing to write this newsletter after being welcomed permanently to the school family as Headteacher. Thank you to all those who have congratulated me and said such lovely and supportive comments. It is a privilege to join you all at school and the whole community in Cockerham. I am very much looking forward to the exciting times we have ahead; continuing and growing the life of school and providing the children with experiences, challenges, learning and skills at each stage of their development.

  The school photographer came today and we are all looking forward to seeing the wonderful pictures of the children.

  Advance warning- On October 20^th we will be having our first ‘Welly Wednesday’ at school. This will be part of our work and refresh of the school vision. More details to follow but in the mean while please keep an eye out on getting wellies or suitable footwear for your child to use as we will be outside in the school grounds working and things might bet muddy, wet and messy! No NEW wellies need to be bought or other footwear. If you have any old wellies that you no longer need/wear or use please send them into school for others so we have spares!

  Congratulations to Caroline Hoyles and Alysia Parkin for completing the Great Manchester Run. Well done ladies, a fantastic achievement.

  School are collecting Morrison’s vouchers for free garden equipment so please send them in with your child.

  Message from Mrs Hutchins:

  After the sad news of the passing of Mrs. Moore one of our school support assistants, school has been understandably a little subdued this week but the staff and children have been very brave and supported each other. We will be opening our book of memories next week and will be asking for any parental and community contributions. We will be sending home slips for anyone who would like to contribute and the children will have an opportunity to complete one if they wish to do so.

  Staff have sent out messages asking if your child/ren will be attending the harvest service on September 26^th 9:30am in church. We will be contributing to the service and it would be lovely if we can have as many children from school there as possible to join the congregation.

  We will be sending home new Home school agreements today for the children. You can complete one per family but make sure you put on each child’s name and current class.

  Message from Mrs Hutchins:

  The first full week back has been a busy one and we are settling into the new routines in school well. Reverend Gary began his Worship visits this week. He will be coming into school to share Worship with school every Wednesday afternoon. It was lovely to welcome him back into school if at a social distance with mask!

  Quick reminder from Mrs. Ayrton- if your child is having school dinners that you try to maintain the same days and ensure you let the school office know in advance as much as possible. Secondly, we are still a few data collection and medical sheets missing. Please can we have these in ASAP. Thanks

  Message from Mrs Brucciani Class One's PE Lesson will take place on a Monday and Thursday until Half Term. On Thursday 16^th September Mrs Brucciani will be having Meet and Greet sessions with Year 1 and 2 Parents. Sessions will be at 4.30pm-5pm for Year 1 and at 5pm-5.30pm for Year 2 parents. Please come and find out what your child's year group expectations are as well as getting to know their teacher. Class teachers will be sending out information for the other classes next week.
