 This week in Suffolk

 

Week beginning Monday 22nd May 2023.

 

Last week of term 5, it has flown by this term with lots of sunny spells. The children have again enjoyed their swimming and rounders in PE. The children have come so far with their rounders, particularly Ewan who is officially the biggest hitter of Suffolk class this term! The children have been learning about angles this week and the difference between obtuse, acute and right angles. Finally, we have moved onto a different civilisation, the Ancient Egyptian civilisation which the children are fascinated about. A lot of discussion about cats, pyramids and their way of life.

                                                         Online Safety Activity

                                                            NSPCC online safety and mental health awareness –  

recommended parent and child activity for half term. 

 

Although we typically don’t set home learning over half term (apart from continuing to read and to practise tables/bonds), we are keen to share an invaluable resource to support you as parents to help your child’s mental health and online safety awareness. 

NSPCC have recently launched their ‘Positively Online Campaign’, with content supporting parents to help their children navigate the online world. It includes six top tips, two videos and a great quiz that families can take together. 

The idea is to get parents talking to their children about their online wellbeing and what we can all do to feel more positive when using the internet. Class teachers will follow up on this during class online safety and PSHE lessons in Term 6.
