This week we have been very excited to finally have had some sunshine! Preparations for Sports Day have begun and the children have enjoyed being able to get out onto the field to practise their sporting skills.
Lots of new displays have been put up around the school this week celebrating all areas of the curriculum. It has been lovely to see the children interact with some of these and to see some of their work displayed for others to enjoy.
Next Friday, we will be having a non-school uniform day to collect donations for a PTA raffle (as part of their upcoming quiz night) and for the Summer Fair. Please see the poster below for more information on the non-school uniform day. Any donations to support this would be gratefully received. We would like to thank the PTA for their ongoing support. The money they raise helps us to reduce the price of trips for the children and to purchase new resources to support learning.
Next week Year 6 have their SATs tests, so to all those who will be taking their tests we would like to say a huge well done for all of your hard work and the incredible progress you have made this year. We know you will all try your best and will do amazingly well. We want you to know that we are extremely proud of all of you!

Well done to Finley, Lucas & Philip who were Cup Final winners last weekend in the Under 11's Maidstone Invicta Primary League.
A picnic for the children in the Early Years
This supports their current learning around the importance of love, kindness and care between families and how this kindness can be spread into the local community.
We will be holding a picnic at school for the Early Years children where the children can choose an adult to attend, to share kindness with. We ask that you bring some small snacks to share with your child on the day. You're welcome to bring a blanket to sit on if you wish.

Exam stress – sometimes referred to as test anxiety – is of course a long-running issue for children and young people. Many experts have suggested that the enforced break to traditional testing during the pandemic (specifically the relative lack of familiarity with exam situations) has exacerbated this problem for those who are currently in education.
The possible impact of exam stress on children’s mental, emotional and physical wellbeing is difficult to overstate – and students’ need for support is seldom greater than during these periods of their academic life. Our guide offers you ten practical tips for helping young people to manage exam stress and minimise its potentially detrimental effects.
