The Shine Team are entering the 2025 Spirited Arts completion. The children can choose from a number of themes on which to base their entry. Our Shine team have chosen the theme ‘living in a diverse world.’
The shine team have spent the last few weeks thinking about diversity and why having a diverse community is important and is something to be celebrated, respected and encouraged.
The children have have created a piece of art work to represent diversity in our community and written two poems to share their views on the importance of diversity, respect and tolerance.
The children have shared some lovely ideas about how we can ensure our community is a safe and welcoming place for all people.
They will enter the competition in June

Respect
Be kind and respectful to anyone you see
Even if they are different,
Let’s embrace and celebrate who people are and who they want to be.
If someone has a different colour of skin,
Don’t treat them rudely
Respect all ideas whether they come from the young or the old:
All stories are worth being told.
There are people who have a religion and those who have none
We should stand up for discrimination until it is gone.
Compassionate and caring is what we should be
We will always have differences
which are wonderful to see.
By Malachi
Diversity
It matters that we are different
It matters because…
Diversity starts conversation
We can celebrate the differences of who we are
The world would be a better place with more celebration
We can learn from each other
It matters because…
We should show kindness and not judgement
We should be proud of who we are.
Diversity, it matters.
By Michael
What a fabulous afternoon working as a team to build vehicles. We had aeroplanes, flying go-karts and even an under water rocket!


































Visit to the Shree Swaminarayan Mandir, Bolton.
This morning and as part of our RE curriculum based on Hinduism, Year 3 visited a Hindu Temple in Bolton.
It was fascinating to learn about this religion, and the temple was beautiful and full of amazing hand painted pictures on the ceiling and the walls and a stunning shrine at the front for Hindus to worship. We were made to feel very welcome.






























Year 1 continued to develop their skills for working in a team. They showed great resilience today whilst trying to get the ball from one bucket to the other using the pipe. They also had lots of fun!

















This afternoon Year 3 came to the end of their teamwork sessions with Rees Sports and today they did a treasure hunt using a map where they had to find 9 letters which they needed to re arrange to make a word – Wind team won 10 merits each by getting it correct.
Well done to the winning team.

What a fabulous first session with Commando Jo! Not only lots of fun but brilliant to see such wonderful team work! We can’t wait for next week!
















Today we talked about what an emergency is and which services we can call. We then practiced dialling 999 and what information we would need to say.
Mrs Cowell set us a challenge to learn our full home address, including postcode, so that we would be able to say it if we needed to call 999.

In our maths lesson this week, we have been learning about estimations, and have been comparing times using seconds and minutes
