This term we are looking at perseverance and how God can help us when we feel like giving up. In Key Stage 1 we have looked at the story of Noah’s Ark and thought about how he had a persevered even when others told him to stop. In Key Stage 2 we have thought about what the word perseverance means and each thought of something we wanted to persevere with.
I can do all things through Him who strengths me—Philippians 4:13

What an exciting week it has been with lots of educational visits and a special visitor to our school too.
On Wednesday and Thursday our children in Year 3 & 4 went to Canterbury to visit
the Roman Museum and the Beaney Museum. The trip gave the children a super
opportunity to learn more about life in the Roman times and gain first hand experi-
ence of designing and making their very own mosaic. What a fantastic way to start
their Roman topic this term. Thank you to Mr Caple and the team for organising this
visit.
On Thursday we had our SIAMS inspection. The inspector spent time talking to staff, children
and parents gaining in understanding of the ways in which we live out our school vision and
values alongside the Bible verse and the story of the Good Samaritan. It was wonderful to
share how our church distinctiveness is at the heart of all we do at Reculver School. It was an
extremely positive and fair process and we hope to be able to share the outcome with
everyone in 2—3 weeks time.
Mrs Ashley-Jones, Mrs Collins and Miss Madge were delighted to take the Ethos Team on a very
special visit to St Luke’s School in Tower Hamlets on Friday. It was perfect timing for us, straight
after our SIAMS inspection, and we all had a wonderful day looking at the similarities and differences between
our schools and in particular the Bible stories and vision and values that make our school such a special place.
Next week the school will be holding the NSPCC sponsored event so make sure your child/children practises their
’keepy uppies’ over the weekend.

Science Club—Let’s Play With Stopwatches!
We timed and tested ourselves in Science Club this week by finding out how many times we could do
certain things in 30 seconds. Harry turned out to be an amazing hopper with an incredible 88 hops in
only 30 seconds! Once we had the hang of timing things, we used the stopwatches to find out how fast
things fall. Then we decided we wanted to slow some of them down … but how? PARACHUTES! The
winning team created a parachute that slowed their object down by nearly a full second—well done!
