Lidget Green Primary School

Welcome back to all our pupils and staff. We hope you enjoyed the holidays and back in school, refreshed and ready to work hard.

Has anyone made a New Year’s Resolution this year? Why don’t you share it with everyone in a comment on here if it is not too personal and then we can all  try to help you keep it.

The children in Foundation Stage were wonderful in their play - even though they didn’t have a dress rehearsal because of the snow. They have posted some pictures on the Foundation Stage page (scroll down the list on the right for the link).

We are sorry that school is closed because of the snow.

We All Say NO To Bullying!

Mr Pope was asking me the other day about how many children could read this blog at home and I had to say I don’t know.

So I am asking the question and if you answer I will give you 10 points. All you need to do is reply to this and say yes please and put your login name so I know who to give the points to.

Did you know that 2008 is the National Year of Reading?

At Lidget Green we are making a late start because it has taken so long for our new library to be ready, but we are not far away now.

The Lidget Green Year of Reading will start on Monday 17th November - there will be lots of exciting events that week, including a Book Fair and a giant Book Quiz - and we will be officially opening the library so you will be able to start borrowing books. If you have any ideas for Reading Events, post them in a comment or see Mrs O’Donnell, Miss Tillett or Mrs Tomlinson next week.

In the meantime keep an eye open to find out who was caught reading a book on the zipwire at Winmarleigh, who was reading in a very cold place, who got help from a ring tailed lemur and why a knight in shining armour was reading a book in our library.

A Successfull Weekend Away 

I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all the children that visited Winmarleigh this weekend with myself Miss D and Mrs H,  we all had a great time. We have lots of photos to show you when we get back after the hols, and even some embarassing ones so you’d better be nice to us! hee hee

Enjoy the break

p.s. I hope you’ve dried out!

There are only a few days left to get your forms back for the Holiday Activities Club!

Make sure your forms have been handed to Miss Flynn by Friday 25th October. You may turn up for an activity on the day but places may not be available.

Get ready for a fun packed week!!!

Miss Flynn

Well done to all the new School Councillors.

Assessment week starts on October 20th and so far there have been a couple of slightly worried comments on the different blogs.

Just remember if you do your best you have nothing to worry about. Your teachers will only be disappointed with you if you don’t try your hardest and that is not likely to happen as Lidget Green pupils always try their best.
