This Week at Hearsall

Young Voices This Tuesday, I was lucky enough to accompany Miss Wood, Mrs Bailey, Mrs Kendrick and 32 children from the ‘Spotlight’ choir to the Young Voices concert at the Genting Arena in Birmingham where our children formed part of a choir of over 6000 children performing a selection of songs. The atmosphere was electric and the children were nothing short of amazing! A huge thank you to Miss Wood and the choir who have given up lunchtimes and spent time after school learning the songs and practicing the routines. It was an unforgettable evening!

Goodbye and Thank You to Paulette On Thursday, we gathered together as a school community to say a very special goodbye and ‘thank you’ to our office manager Paulette who has retired to spend more time with her family. Paulette has been the beating heart of Hearsall for 26 years and it was lovely to hear tributes from Mrs Billington, Mrs Winters and many other members of staff that have worked with her throughout her time at the school. It was particularly touching to hear the messages from children who spoke of the kindness and care that she has shown to everybody. The whole school community will miss Paulette greatly and we would like to wish her a very happy retirement. We were thrilled that we were able to present Paulette with £200 worth of Harry Shaw vouchers – thank you to parents for their generous contributions to this collection. We hope that Paulette will continue to stay in touch and pop in for regular visits. Have a lovely weekend

Year 6 Magistrates Year 6 had a wonderful morning with the Coventry Magistrates' last Friday.

Throughout the morning, the children learned how and why someone can end up appearing in a Magistrates court in England. Later in the morning, the children had

the chance to stand before the Magistrate and take part in a 'real- life' case.

Year 1 As part of their English work, Year 1

have been performing the poem ‘Daddy fell into the pond’ by Alfred

Noyes. They used actions and did freeze frames to show their actions. The children really enjoyed performing

the poem to their classmates.

Reading Volunteers At Hearsall, we truly value the support of parents and carers in ensuring each and every child reaches their individual goals and aspirations. Currently, we are having a big focus on reading throughout the school. This includes: word recognition, reading fluency and detailed understanding of what a text is telling a child. This is where we need your help! We would like to recruit an army of reading ambassadors to hear children read more regularly in school (as part of a partnership with the reading you do with your children at home). Can you spare an hour once a week to volunteer to hear children read at Hearsall? Have you got a love of reading that you want to pass onto children in our school? If so, contact Mr Thomas or Miss Cawley in person or via email at [email protected] We would love to have your support!
