Blue Class

Happy Holidays, Thank You and Good Luck!

Hello everyone,

What a great last day we've had in school today! I'm sure you'd agree that the children sang, danced and retold their Malvern adventures brilliantly this morning, with confidence and smiles. It was lovely for the children to share their books with you, see photographs of Malvern and it was so nice to be able to chat to you all.

The children have been an absolute delight to teach with their hardworking, enthusiastic, kind and friendly nature and we will miss them very much. They truly are a class we will remember fondly for a very long time. Please do pop in and see us and let us know how everyone is getting on.

Thank you so much for your generous gifts and kind words. We hope you have a good summer break and we'll look forward to seeing some of you at our holiday club.

Many thanks once again,

from Miss Townsend, Miss Kuriger, Mrs Taylor and Mrs Spurgeon xxx

We've Returned...Safe, Happy And Very, VERY Tired!

Good evening everyone,

Well done Blue Class for a wonderful time on our residential. From trekking up the Worcestershire Beacon, to zooming down the zip slide and venturing into the 'Tunnel of Doom', we had an amazing time that we're sure we'll all remember for a very long time.

All of the BFS adults were so proud of not only your determination, independence and effort but also of how kind and caring you were towards each other, particularly when those heights and dark spaces were a challenge. All of our leaders said they wish BFS could come every week because of your great manners, super listening skills, team work and smiles.

We were of course very sad that some of the children had to return a little earlier than scheduled but we look forward to seeing you on Monday as we have a small gift waiting for you!

We imagine some of the children will be asleep very soon (as will the teachers!) but we hope that when they are recharged and full of beans again, they will enjoy sharing their holiday tales with you.

Thank you for making this trip possible and we're sure the children will be delighted that we can share the happy news that all of them can now make their own bed and their own lunch!

Have a restful weekend and please note, the children can have a week off from homework to aid their recovery!!

Many thanks,

from The Malvern Team xxx

Happy Half Term Blue Class

Hello Everyone,

Very well done Blue Class for working so hard this half term during our 'Take a Trip' and 'Sport Around the World' topics. It has been fascinating learning where you've further developed your understanding of the wider world and its diversity and investigated aspirational people from near and far. Bell boating, creating electrical circuits with buzzers and bulbs, showcasing your learning with the rest of the school with your PowerPoint presentations, finding out what decimal numbers are and exploring the Olympics with friends from Astley Primary School are just a few of the headlines from this half term. Phew... we'll all need a good rest next week.

Thank you to your grown ups at home for supporting you in so many ways this half term from encouraging quality homework each week, working on targets shared at parent consultations and helping to develop your independence. Parental support is greatly appreciated and it makes such a difference to academic progress and learning behaviours.

Have a lovely half term and, fingers crossed, some warm, sunny weather makes an appearance. Keep enjoying lots of reading and times table games over the next few days too. Your times table fluency and accuracy have greatly improved as a result of lots of practise both at home and in school so keep going during the holiday so you'll be ready and raring to go for our special times table quiz during the first two weeks back

Have fun, keep safe and we'll see you after the half term break.

Love from Miss Townsend and Miss Kuriger xxx

Happy Half Term Blue Class

Well done Blue Class for another successful half term during which you continued to work hard with resilience and enthusiasm. We kicked off 2024 with an exciting 'Blackwell Film Festival' topic where you created your own films linked to all of your learning. You proudly shared them with Yellow Class who were very impressed with your film making skills. 

We finished the half term with a 'What's special?' topic where we enjoyed reading an award-winning text, The Rhythm of Rain by Grahame Baker-Smith, and created your own picture books for our Red Class friends to help them learn how special water is. During this topic we also learned about the Hindu faith. Our trip to the Hindu temple was certainly a fascinating one particularly being able to observe many rituals, see artefacts and hear stories learned about in school. Visiting such a place, for many of us, was very different and new but the respect and curiosity shown by all of you was noted by our guide and other visitors there. These experiences are important in helping you to understand how diverse our local area is and how such diversity helps make our community and wider world an interesting place to live.

It has been a busy and hardworking half term so have a good break this week. Enjoy time at home or away, with lots of time to rest and play. A little bit of reading and times table practice would be really helpful too so that you continue where you left off when you return. We look forward to seeing you on Monday 19th February where we will set sail on the Seven Seas and learn about some swashbuckling adventures!

Be safe, helpful and kind and we'll see you all soon.

Love from Miss Townsend and Miss Kuriger xxx
