It was great to see our friends at Metro Bank, Brighton return to School as they run their third series of sessions linked to banking and budgeting with our children. As always, the Year 6 children were enthused and engaged during the workshop, spending time learning more about how banks work and the impact on their lives. They are all looking forward to the much anticipated visit down to their store in Brighton next month. Thank you Miss Waters for organising this.

Mrs Allen is leading the way with

recycling, putting her old handbag to good use as a hanging

basket. This is to launch the Garden Party Handbag

Competition. Take one old

handbag. Add one fabulous plant. Send it in to school before Thursday. Pick up your prize on the

day!

Bolnore’s annual Rainbow Day to celebrate our core values took place on Tuesday. All the children had the chance to

dance, eat, smile and sing their way through the Core Values. We welcomed in visiting instructors and teachers to lead Zumba workshops, Rio Carnival dance routines and

music ensembles! The faces of our children shone throughout the whole day! It was brilliant to have so many parents join us to celebrate the end of the day.Thank you to Mrs Bayliss and Mrs Beasley for organising this memorable day. Thank you also to ‘Friends’ for their support of this event

through their donation; specifically towards the external dance instructors and the purchase of exotic fruits, in keeping with the Rio theme. What an amazing day!

Well done to Chestnut, Hazel, Mulberry and Beech classes, all of whom

achieved 97%+ attendance, our target! WSCC are coming to talk to us about

persistent absence and we may have to refer anyone with an attendance of less

than 90%.

Year 2 had a fabulous day at the Life Boat Station in Littlehampton and on the beach and in the Look and Sea Visitors’ Centre Thank you to all the parents who came along to help. And a big shout out to the weather! The sun came out and everyone had a great day as part of their topic ‘Commotion in the Ocean.’ Thank you to Mr Chapman for leading this trip.
