Autumn Term, Issue 5
Dear Parents
As part of Online Safety Week,
we hope the children enjoyed
trying to guess our staff ‘two
truths and a lie’ - I am very
curious to get to the bottom of
the strange and wonderful
statements!
There is still time for the children
to comment with their guesses.
A reminder about the wonderful
poster design competition based
on the theme of ’An internet we
trust’. The deadline has been
extended to the end of half-term
and entries should be uploaded
via Google Classroom. There are
lots of lovely prizes on offer!
Thank you to Mr Edwards for
organising the Safer Internet Day
and raising awareness of the
importance of staying safe
online.
British Science Week is in March,
however we will be moving ours
to later in the year when the
children return to school.
Attached to the newsletter e-mail
is a fabulous science competition
that the children can join. There
are also some great activities at
www.britishscienceweek.org
Thank you to Alice for her very
touching acrostic poem.
Some words of positivity to end
the week:
“When it rains look for
rainbows. When it’s dark
look for stars”
Oscar Wilde, Poet & Playwright.
So, for now, learn from home,
keep active, stay safe and have a
peaceful half-term.
Kind Regards
Mrs Figen Bektaşoğlu

COPPERMILL WEEKLY Unity, Creativity, Empathy, Respect, Determination & Aspiration
Learning together, Achieving forever
Friday 12th February 2021
Sincere condolences to the family of Mrs Doreen Hull for their sad loss. Mrs Hull was a teacher at
Coppermill in the 1950s & 1960s and is pictured in this fantastic photo with her class:
Doreen lived locally until she was 95 and had a wonderful life! Thank you to her son Stephen and husband Roy, for sharing her history and photographs with us. He said “I know Mum
enjoyed her time at the old Coppermill very much – a far cry from your current school but I know
Mum would have wanted to pass on her best wishes for all the hard work being done by your
current staff to keep schools open during this really challenging time”.
