A note from Mrs McCormack (Primary Principal):

Performance week has been fantastic in the Primary school over the course of the week. A huge well done to all the students who got involved and many thanks to our Music team for organising such a super event. We are looking forward to the Solo Festival on Saturday morning and I hope to see you there!


The Primary Leadership Team and I are pleased to invite you to our upcoming parent session called "Learning at Patana" on Tuesday, May 30th in the Primary Hall between 8:00-9:00 am. This is a chance for us to reconnect, review the successes of the year, and exchange ideas for next year's parent workshops. Please join us for a delightful and laid-back event where we will serve tea, coffee and cake. We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible!


Have a wonderful weekend!


Learning

Term 3 - You are what you eat!

Please visit our curriculum pages and class blogs to find out more about this exciting learning!

As part of our Humanities topic ‘Why is food important?’ we will explore where food grows. We will also think about how we import foods that do not grow locally and the positive and negative impact that has on the world around us.

Over the next two weeks, please could you send in any empty food packages you have that clearly state where the food item comes from. We will collect these in classes and use these to support our geography learning.

Thank you very much for your help and support!

RSE - Relationships and Sex Education Presentations

Next Week:  

Our learning in PSHE focuses on the idea of consent. The students will discuss appropriate and inappropriate touching, where and what this looks like and what to do when something makes you feel uncomfortable and unsafe.


IT - Lessons and Resources

This term in ICT we will be learning to create Animations using the App - Flip-A-Clip

The children will learn about frame-by-frame animation and begin to use some different techniques (12 Principles of Animation).

If you want to have a go at home, you can get the free version of the App (contains Ads).

If children make any animations at home, please share them by posting them to us on Teams or Seesaw.

FlipaClip: Create 2D Animation on the App Store (apple.com)

Flip A Clip - Microsoft Apps

Heroes Dress Up Day - 02/06/23

PTG - AGM

Birthday celebrations

We cannot give out party bags or gifts - please keep these for any sort of celebration that you do out of school.

If you would like to send in some birthday treats for your child to share with their class, please arrange a day with your child's class teacher. We will only be able to manage individual items like brownies, doughnuts, or cupcakes. 

Please remember we are a nut-free Primary School and also check with the class teacher for any other dietary requirements of the class.

There are no birthdays this week in Year 2
