Hello Blue Class,

We hope you are enjoying your summer break and have had a good rest and are feeling ready and raring to go for a new school year. We look forward to welcoming you back to school on Wednesday where we have lots of exciting learning ready for you starting with an 'Ancient Egypt' topic. The Egyptian hieroglyphs you created during your transition session are proudly displayed in your new classroom ready for you to see and we've got lots of special Year 4 activities and roles to tell you about too.

Enjoy the last few days of the holiday. After all of the rest and play you've had and to get your brain ready for learning, it would be a good idea to do some reading and check you still know those times table facts you learned last year over the next few days. You might even want to investigate a little bit about the Ancient Egyptians too.

See you very soon.

Love from Miss Townsend, Miss Kuriger, Mrs Taylor, Mrs McDermott and Mrs Pemberton xxx

Hello New Year 5s!

We hope you have had a lovely summer and a well-earned rest after all of your hard work during our very busy summer term in Blue Class. It's nearly time for your new school adventure to start and we imagine you've had fun choosing your new stationery, trying on your new uniform and packing your new bag. Starting a new school is exciting but it is also normal if you are feeling nervous. As soon as you've been there for a day or two, made some new friends and know where everything is, you will feel happy and settled.

Please remember all of those values we have taught you at Blackwell...being respectful and kind, always trying your best, being responsible and making good choices...and have lots of fun along the way.

We would love to know how you are getting on so pop back in to see us after school to say hello if you can.

Lots of love,

from everyone at BFS xxx

Hello everyone,

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

The children have been a pleasure to teach this year with their hardworking, positive and friendly nature and we will miss them very much. Thank you so much for your generous gifts, cards and lovely words. It was very kind of you.

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, Mrs Cooper and Mrs Spurgeon xxx

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 or towards those who were staying away from home for the very first time. All of our leaders said they wish BFS could come every week because of your great manners, team work, enthusiasm and smiles.

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

Hello Everyone,

Well done Blue Class for working hard this half term albeit a short one. Our 'Wonderful World' topic has been fascinating where you've further developed your understanding of the wider world and its diversity and investigated aspirational people from near and far. Creating board games, finding out what decimal numbers are and enjoying singing and art work to celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE day with friends from Dodford First 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 cheering you on at our sunny sports day this morning, 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, the predicted wet weather doesn't make an appearance. Keep enjoying lots of reading and times table games over the next week 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
