The week in Review

We would like to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to all of our parents for your incredible support throughout this year. We wish everyone a truly lovely, well-deserved summer holiday when it arrives!

For the families sadly leaving BSM this year, we send you our warmest wishes. We wish you every success as you settle into your new schools and countries - you will be missed!

This week, the children have been incredibly busy putting the finishing touches on their hard work across all subjects. It has been a wonderful whirlwind of learning!

Maths

We have been tackling the practical skill of converting units of measure, including mastering the complexities of time.

Design & Technology

The children have completed their handmade books with moving parts. Their creativity and engineering skills have been fantastic to see.

Humanities

In Humanities our historical journey took us deep into the fascinating legacy of the Ancient Greeks.

The Greek adventure isn't quite over yet! Tomorrow, the children are greatly looking forward to cooking some traditional Greek dishes and welcoming parents into school to share in the fun. We can't wait to see you there.

Homework

The homework has been shared with the children in class; further information can be found on Google Classroom. Please ask your child to plan when they will complete their homework. They should ask their teachers if they need further support before the end of school on Wednesday.

Reading

Please read for 20 minutes per day and record this in your P.O. Please record the book title and page numbers and ask an adult to sign when they have either heard you read or have discussed your reading with you.

English

Practise your spellings for your test on Thursday.

Absences

If your child is unwell, leaving early or coming late please complete the Absence Form and the class teacher will be informed.

Swimming Kit

Please can we request that all children come to school on the day of their swimming lessons with the following equipment:

Swim Uniform in accordance with guidelines.
Swim hats for those with long hair. ALL hats must be secure on the head with no risk of slipping down over the face.
Goggles
Towel
Pool shoes (crocs or equivalent)
A waterproof bag to carry everything in.

Please see our Swimwear Guidelines on the website.

Please do not wear 'swim uniform' into school for hygiene reasons. Please do not wear an alternative gym or running kit for swimming lessons. It's important to use only 'Swim Uniform' and the recommendations listed above in the pool, as other fabrics become incredibly heavy when wet.

WhatsApp Groups

We have created WhatsApp groups for parents to know about urgent messages or reminders. Email will continue to be the main form of communication. Please see our BSM WhatsApp Groups Document for all the links. Please read the code of conduct carefully before joining any BSM WhatsApp groups.
