• St Andrew's Day and PA Donation Day

  Mon 27 Nov 2017 Miss Owen

  This Thursday is Saint Andrew’s day and as is the usual custom we are allowing all the children in St Andrew's house to wear a blue t shirt with their usual school uniform to mark the day. As always, children who belong to different houses are also welcome to join in by wearing a blue t shirt.

   

  Can I also remind you that this Friday is the PA donations day in which they hope to receive lots of bottles and chocolates for the tombola stall for the winter fete. In return for your donations the children do not have to wear their school uniform on Friday.

• Road Safety Week

  Fri 24 Nov 2017 Miss Brook

  The 20^th- 24^th November is National Road Safety Week.  Road Safety Week is the UK’s biggest road safety event.  People all around the country get involved to learn and spread the word about road safety.

  As a school, Longlands have been learning about Road Safety and the importance of it.  In classes, children have discussed how the Green Cross Code helps adults and children to cross the road safely.  The children also learnt about the dangers of crossing between parked cars and on sharp bends. Behaviour in cars was also explored, including not distracting the driver and wearing a seatbelt.  There was a short quiz at the end.

  Longlands are holding a poster competition.  Throughout the school the children have been busy designing Road Safety posters and the winner will be announced next Friday in Achievements Assembly.

  Below are some links for games that children of all ages can play:
