Afternoon Tea at The Town House

Today 4 pupils accompanied Mrs Walker and Mrs Torrens to a tea party at The Town House to celebrate our involvement in The Silver City Surfers project last year.  We shared how the project had given us the confidence to move on to work with other groups within our community.

Our pupils were absolutely marvellous and the made us so proud. They showed confidence when presenting and chatted politely with other adults. They also met the Lord Provost.

It was a wonderful afternoon.

 

 

Remote Controlled Toys Wanted

At the request of pupils, if you have any remote controlled cars or toys you no longer want please could you donate them to school so we can use them at lunchtimes and Golden Time. They will also be used to help the pupils learn about programming and technology. 

Walk All Over Cancer Fundraising

During the month of March, the staff at Fernielea are aiming to raise money for Cancer Research by walking 10,000 steps every day in March.

We would really like it if pupils, parents and families joined in too.  The school have set up a Just Giving page linked directly to Cancer Research which means all money donated through the Just Giving page will go directly to the charity.

If you would like to join in, download the record sheet below and get walking.

When was the last time you got ‘lost in a book?’

Winter Fun

Today we had great fun playing outside in the winter weather.  There wasn’t much snow on the ground but we still managed to have fun!

Hazlehead Bench Design Competition

This week the finishing touches were made by our P6 Winner on her winning park bench design.  The competition asked children to design a bench that would be welcoming, bright and thought provoking.  Each school in the Hazlehead ASG will have a bench placed in Hazlehead Park which has been designed by pupils.  SO the next time you are there, have a look for the Fernielea bench which will be placed beside the maze.
