Measles advice

Over the summer months, with people being out and about more, Knowsley’s Public Health team are issuing advice and guidance around measles, which is extremely infectious.

Symptoms include high fever, sore, red and watery eyes, coughing, aching and feeling generally unwell and a blotchy red / brown rash.

You can help by ensuring your children receive two MMR vaccines on time (one at the age of one and the other at aged 3 years and 4 months). If your children have missed these vaccines, it’s not too late, so contact your GP to make an appointment to ensure your children are up-to-date.

Teenagers and young adults should also be fully vaccinated before traveling or attending festivals and other summer events.

If you have symptoms of measles, stay at home and phone your GP or NHS 111 for advice.

Year 4 – Delamere Forest

We went to Delamere Forest in Cheshire as part of our work on science to look at habitats. We looked under logs, up into trees, at all the birds on the lake and in hot and cold/ light and dark parts of the forest. We were careful to make sure that any animals we found were returned to their habitat so that they would survive.

Children’s University

Children’s University 2019

On Thursday 13^th June, 78 of our Key Stage 2 children graduated from Children’s University.

We had a variety of awards ranging from Bronze Awards to Gold Diplomas. It was a lovely morning and it was fantastic to see how proud the children were of themselves. In addition to these amazing achievements, we would like to also congratulate Lucy W who was this year’s recipient of the Outstanding Achievement Award and Charlie B who was awarded this year’s Honorary Award.

Thank you to all of our parents and families who attended the ceremony.

N.B Children who did not quite earn enough credits for an award this year will have these carried over to next year.

10 Minutes Exercise

Last week we went outside before lunch and spent 10 minutes running or walking around the school pitches. Teachers and teaching assistants walked around with us as we all worked to improve our fitness. Some of us ran for the whole of the time (wow!) while others walked or did some walking and some running. By the end of it, we were red faced and feeling hot – we definitely earned our lunch and a nice cold drink. Next Friday we will challenge ourselves again and hopefully increase the distance that we can travel in 10 minutes.

Key Stage 1 Reading

Our KS1 children are enjoying reading at lunchtime now that the weather has improved. They love reading with their friends and with adults on the playground.

“ I like finding books that I have read before and reading to my friends like I am the teacher.” Year 1 pupil.
