New Diamond 6s
During the week before half term, we heard the fantastic speeches from our next round of would be Diamond 6s. All
of the children spoke brilliantly about why they think they should be voted in by the members of our school. They
then gave us all an impossible decision of choosing who should be the new Diamond 6s. The votes were made and
counted several times and in our Friday assembly we very proudly announced the new crew! Our new Diamond 6s
are Noah, Callum, Evelyn, Amber, Jack and Billy with Rose and Lily as deputies. We wish them all well in their new
roles and know that they will do a fantastic job for our school!
The Welcome
On Friday 6th March we will be holding our annual Welcome in recognition of St Piran’s
Day. Information letters have already gone home with reply slips to be returned. We are
aiming for the performance to take place on the Inner Green at approximately 10am
with children singing, a maypole dance and of course a visit from St Piran! We will leave
school in the morning to walk to the Inner Green where we will meet parents. After the
event children will return to school ready for lunch. Please can children come to school
in their costumes. KS1 children will be asked to wear clothes in Cornish colours of black,
white and gold. Children in KS2 will be dressed as Miners or Bal Maidens. All children
will need a warm coat. Bal Maidens:
Long dark skirt
White or grey apron (optional)
Long sleeved shirt or blouse
Shawl or small blanket
Gooks (provided by school and given out on the day)

We’re crossing our fingers and toes for dry weather, but please do keep an eye out for any communications in
case of possible cancellations. Many thanks.
We’re looking forward to seeing you there! Kernow bys vyken!

World Book Day
Don’t forget that we will be celebrating World Book Day on Friday 13th March. On this day children are able to
come to school dressed as a favourite book character. There will be a prize for the best ‘DIY costume’ in each
class. The winning costumes will be free or very cheap to make and created using garments/items already owned
or made from recycled materials. The children will also be taking part in fun reading activities on this day too.
Back by popular demand… To tie in with our celebrations of World Book Day we are inviting children to take part in
the Perranporth World Book Day Vegetable Competition. All children need to do to enter is to create a vegetable
scene from a book or a vegetable book character and bring their creation into school on Friday 13th March. One
child from each year group will win a trip to Waterstones in Truro to choose a select of their choice.
The class for the Friday Cake Sale is...

FOPS Book Sale
Thank you so much to everyone who supported the FOPS
Book Sale this week. It was great to see so many grabbing
a good book and getting excited about reading! Thank
you also to FOPS for putting on such an awesome event!
BF Adventure
An opportunity, not to be missed!
For those who like climbing, heights and adrenaline…
BF Adventure are launching a Via Ferrata! They want to build and market it with their customers in mind, so they’re
looking for people to answer some questions to help them in their market research. BF are aiming to target families
(with children aged 8+), groups of friends, couples or any individuals who love the outdoors and want to climb or
do something different in Cornwall. If that’s
you then they’d love to hear from you! In
return for your help, BF will give you a £10
voucher to spend on the Via Ferrata once
it’s been built, or you may wish to use it on
their other activities, including water sports,
climbing, abseiling, zip-lining, archery and
more.
