Cheam Park Farm Newsletter
08.05.2020
Welcome to our newsletter for the week ending Friday 8th May 2020. First up, a couple of things to look forward to over the coming few weeks....
National Numeracy Day
LEO Academies is excited to be taking part in National Numeracy Day on Wednesday 13th May!
"National Numeracy Day is all about recognising that numbers play a big part in all our lives and helping people sharpen their skills and build their confidence"
Instead of a daily maths lesson, there will be a one-off video session with different activities and challenges from National Numeracy Day to try! We want to celebrate all of the fantastic maths work you are doing at home, so please share with us any pictures, work or activities you are getting up to.
Young Voices at Home
Young Voices are planning the world's biggest concert on Tuesday 2nd June at 2.30pm. Children from all over the world are invited to join this project and be part of the world's largest children's choir from the comfort of their own homes.
The Young Voices team are very aware that all school concerts and all childrens' concerts have been cancelled so they are giving pupils from all over the world the opportunity to come together and sing the song Power in Me which is suitable for KS2 pupils.
All the resources for this project can be found in the music section of LEO distance learning website and further details can be found here youngvoices.co.uk/powerinme and here youtu.be/jYN9BxpH5ik
Star of the Week Certificates
We hold weekly assemblies in school where we hand out 'Star of the Week' certificates to children. They are awarded to one child per class from Nursery to Year 6 and are given to children who have impressed their teacher this week with some of the work that they have completed.
Winners of this week's awards are listed below. You can see this week's assembly here .
VE Day Celebrations
Since today is the 75th anniversary of VE Day, we thought we would share with you how some of our children still in school commemorated this momentous day. We know that many of you sat in your front gardens today and remembered the sacrifices that past generations made for us. We hope you all had a nice day!

Upcoming Events....
Whilst we naturally now have far less dates in the calendar now, we would like to share a few dates of upcoming events where we would like pupils and their families to join in with from home. Please see details below:
May
- 9th - 16th: National Doughnut Week. Calling all bakers to join in the fun........during National Doughnut Week money is raised by bakers up and down the country for The Children's Trust, a national charity that provides care for children all over the country. This is your chance to get baking and try to make your own Doughnut recipes. Don't forget to share some pics with us!
- 18th - 22nd: Walk to School Week. Whilst we can't all walk to school this year, perhaps you can find a way of making sure that you walk somewhere (even if it's just around a garden or something) every morning this week before you start your work. Let us know your creative ways of "walking to school".
June
- Friday 5th: World Environment Day. World Environment Day is the United Nations day for encouraging worldwide awareness and action to protect our environment. We would like you to create a poster today to show how you think we can protect our environment and then share it via Twitter or email.

Please share photos throughout this week of your children setting up shops, pricing up their dinner, looking at old money - in fact, anything money related!
- 24th: Wrong Trousers Day. Inspired by Wallace and Gromit, Wrong Trousers Day is all about having the right to wear wrong trousers to help children's hospices and hospitals across the country. We would love to see photos of you all in your "wrong trousers" please!
