Good morning! The children slept really well last night and are currently enjoying their final breakfast before heading out to complete the last activities. They have had an amazing time and are looking forward to coming home and telling you all about it. See you this afternoon!
The children have had another amazing day in the sunshine, and have pushed themselves beyond their comfort zones on all of the activities. They are now enjoying some team games before bed. There are some sleepy faces (not just the teachers), but everyone is happy and looking forward to the final activities (and home) tomorrow. Goodnight from Robinwood.
After a busy morning of activities the children had well earned lunch break, then it was on to an action packed afternoon.

The children have had an amazing time taking part in the activities today and have just finished their evening meal. We are now taking part in our final activity and will then play some tea games before bed.
After a delicious lunch, the children set off on their activities. The children are having a great time on their activities.
All here safe and sound. We’ve climbed the mammoth hill and luggage is in our rooms!
See you later – we’re off to the activities…
The children have worked extremely hard over the past few weeks and many are keen to continue to do some small amounts of revision over the Easter break, to ensure they hit the ground running when we return to school.
Therefore, we have put together a revision pack for children which involves ’10 for 10’ activities, designed to be done over ten days during the holiday to keep their skills sharp.
Of course, it is vitally important that the children relax and enjoy their break, but just 20 minutes a day will really help them to be prepared for their upcoming SATs tests.
Additionally, there have been some optional tasks uploaded onto ‘Emile’ for children who want to do more specific learning on a variety of tasks and they can also choose their own tasks on Emile should they wish.
The reading and maths 10 for 10 booklets are attached to this blog as well as several mini GAPs activities.
Please encourage your child to do a little revision during the holiday to support them in the final run up to SATs.
Thank you for your support
Mr Lane and Mr Simmons.

Grammar
In the document below is a grammar paper which has links at the side of each question. The children can try the questions and if they get stuck, they can click the link to play a game which helps them revise that skill. (I have check and one or two links do not work but the vast majority of them do).

Yesterday year 6 blue spent some time with Emma Martin who creates artwork for cultural assets. The class spent time constructing leaves from willow branches and paper. Once the leaves were dry the children then decorated the leaves with text art. All art work will be on display as part of “Growing Farnworth’s Future” exhibition being held on Saturday 14th March at the new Farnworth Library. Everyone is invited to attend the exhibition, it will be a great opportunity for you to see your child’s artwork. More information about the exhibition will be sent home with your child.
