Wheatfields Junior School

Big Dance 2012.

The Big Dance Friday 18th May  1pm - we will be taking part in the Big Dance 2012 event with Wheatfields Infant and Nursery School.

We are counting down the hours to the Big Dance on Friday and hope that you have all been practicing your moves!

Everyone is invited to join us take part in the Guinness World Record attempt for the “Largest Dance Routine”.

On Friday 18th we will be performing the dance on the Junior School playground and we hope that the event will be kicked off by a Nickelodeon Children’s television presenter!

We would also like the children dressed in T-shirts in the colours of the Olympic rings please.  (These are green, red, black, yellow or blue.)  The children may also wear tutus and leg warmers.

See the choreography broken down into sections with verbal instructions to help you learn the dance. Then watch the 5 minute choreography all the way through with the music. The following are WMV files.

Scholastic Book Fair - The book fair will be open from Monday 21st until Friday 25th May, after school (3:15 - 3:40 p.m.) Monday to Thursday and before school (8:20 - 8:45 a.m) Tuesday to Friday.

There will be a wide selection of children’s books available for you to choose from including picture books, young fiction and junior novels as well as reference and non-fiction titles.

Your support would be greatly appreciated because for every book sold at the fair, the school earns commission, which will enable us to add new books to our school and class libraries.

Guides to the skills covered in  literacy (1.27MB) and maths(1.11MB) at each national curriculum level from 1-8 and what parents can do at home to help their children make good progress in their learning. 
These and more information available on the Literacy and Maths website pages.

Gardening Thank You.
At the end of the autumn term the hard-working team from garden services company Kiwi Greenfingers visited the school to carry out some much needed seasonal pruning and weeding and to lay down new bark chippings on the borders around the school. They generously donated their time free of charge to the school and we were very impressed by how much they achieved in a single day.
