This year for the first time our PTA hosted a leavers celebration for our Year 6 children. The evening included a photo booth, pizza and party games!

The children really enjoyed themselves so hopefully this will become an annual event! Special thanks goes to Mrs Harper and Mrs Van Spelde for organizing this event at such a busy time of the year!!

This week all of our Year 6 children have completed their Level 1 Bikeability course. The course was offered by NBLT free of charge to the school and took place over the whole week. Each child had the opportunity to learn to ride a bike safely and how to ensure that their bikes met all health and safety requirements.

The course was thoroughly enjoyed by the children and each child will receive a certificate.

On Wednesday 26th June we hosted our annual Sports Award Evening.

This year David Moorcroft, OBE, came along to the event to present each winner with their medals and trophies.

The event was extremely well attended by all of Stoke Heaths sporting teams and parents also came along to support.

A big thank you to David for giving up his valuable time to come along to our school!

Our Year 2 children have recently visited Weston Supermare on a day trip. They left the school at 8.00 am and returned back to school at 6.00 pm.

The weather was extremely kind to the children and they had a wonderful day enjoying their packed lunch on the beach, going into the sea and even managed to get an ice cream!

The PTA would like to thank everybody who supported our first PTA movie night. The children were extremely well behaved and thoroughly enjoyed the event. The two evenings raised an impressive £420!

Thank you again for your support.

The children have taken part in a Harry Potter lunch. The lunchtime staff dressed up and music was played throughout the lunchtime. The kitchen staff made a special lunch including Griffindor Chicken and Hufflepuff Chocolate Ice Cream!

The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves so the event was really worthwhile and a big thank you for all of the staff engagement!

Year One Visit

On Thursday 26th April Year One had a visitor Brian, from the Herbert Art Gallery in Coventry. This was part of our learning in History where we are learning about the Victorian era. In the session the children had the opportunity to dress up as Victorians and to explore toys from the past including coits, hobby horses, skipping ropes and a zoetrope. We even had a hobby horse race! We compare Victorian toys with those of today and looked at how the materials they were made of had changed. We all had a great time!

Sky Blues in the Community

The children have today taken part in an assembly delivered by Coventry City Football club as part of the Primary Stars project. The assembly was based around ‘Respect’ and ‘Winning and Losing’.

Sky Blues Sam also came along to the event and the children thoroughly enjoyed meeting him!

Year 4

As part of our Anglo Saxon topic Year 4 have researched information about brooches. We then designed our own and made them out of clay. The results have been excellent and the children have been really proud of this piece of work.

In English this week we have been reading the traditional story Jack and the Beanstalk.  We have been inspired by The Secret Histories of Giants written by Professor  Ari Berk, to create our own class Giantology book.  Year 2 have been getting creative and designing and drawing their own giants to go in the book.   Have a look at some of their amazing creations.”

Library Quiz – March 2018

Some of our year 6 children have taken part in the library quiz hosted by the local authority. The final was on the 15th March at St Mary’s Guildhall. It was really tense and exciting and we are pleased to advise that the children of Stoke Heath Primary School were runners up!

Well done to those who took part!
