Well done to the Year 6 children who graduated on the DARE programme last week. Their graduation ceremony was brilliantly written by the children based on the game show 'Take Me Out' and showed how much they have learned about substance misuse and how to make the right choices in life. Well done to Miss Read, Miss Reynolds and DARE Officer Mr Graham for supporting the children in their learning.
What a fantastic time we are all having at Festive Film Club.
The hall looks a little like a fancy dinner theatre with everyone enjoying sweeties, popcorn, special Gateford ice-cream and 'Arthur Christmas'.
See a few photos below.
Thank you to everyone who has supported Film Club throughout 2012. Your kind donations have led to new resources being bought for the children to use below.
We're already looking forward to the first Film Club of 2013.
On Thursday Miss Robinson, Mrs Jackson, Mrs Dawes and Miss Baker took a group of children to plant some trees in celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee year. The event was organised by the local council whose aim was to plant 6000 trees this year.
All of the children had great fun and even though it was really cold we managed to plant over 100 trees on a patch of land near Churchill Way, including a large oak tree.
At long last, the Foundation Stage Outside Classroom is complete and the children have had great fun, learning outside today in the lovely winter sunshine. Have a look at Gnome Class' page to see what they've been up to today by clicking here.
Learning outside is a central part of our work at Gateford Park and we are all delighted with this new development at our school.
