KS2 Computing Award

This week the award was presented to 6L – well done 6L! This was for their research into a new topic.

Attendance

Attendance was the lowest it has been in the first four weeks at 91%. This is far below our 96% target. We know that there have been a few colds, coughs and other things going around so let’s cross our fingers that everyone is better next week. It is vitally important that children are in school as much as possible as there is a direct link between good attendance and good progress. Please remember that holidays must not be booked during school time and cannot be approved.

Our winning classes this week were 1MV and 3KA, with both classes achieving 95.7%. Amazingly 1MV have won the trophy every week so far… 4 consecutive weeks! We don’t think this has ever happened before. A massive congratulations to 1MV! Come on 1B, 2G and 2S… can you topple them next week?

Team Points

Caernarfon had a narrow lead last week but they have extended their advantage over the past 5 school days. It will be important that Windsor, Stormont and Stirling prevent Caernarfon from building up too much of an early lead. 14 points is still a very small margin but our yellow team definitely need to be watched carefully…!
