Dear Parents and Carers,

I hope you are having a good weekend and enjoyed the school fair.  This is a polite reminder that a group of Y6 students for their Action for the PYP Exhibition have organised a No Single Use Plastic day for tomorrow, Monday 24th March.  Details are below.

We would like to invite you to take part, with your child, in our No Single Use Plastic Day on Monday 24th March.  We understand that popular children’s snacks come in single-use plastic, so below are suggestions to help you give your child a plastic-free snack.

• Fruits/Veggies

• home-baked snacks

• Popping your own popcorn

• bread from the bakery

• Plastic free snacks

We are sure you have many other ideas as well.  To help us celebrate please take photos of your family preparing your snacks and save them to this folder.

Regards

Andy Thompson

No Single Use Plastic Day Monday 24th March

Dear Parents and Carers,

We are a group of passionate Year 6 students undertaking our PYP Exhibition.  We have chosen to take action against plastic pollution because this toxic waste is poisoning our health and environment.  All of us have taken some small steps to heal our community by reducing plastic waste at home, teaching younger students about the issue and taking part in beach clean-ups.

We would like to invite you to take part, with your child, in our No Single Use Plastic Day on Monday 24th March.  We understand that popular children’s snacks come in single-use plastic, so below are suggestions to help you give your child a plastic-free snack.

• Fruits/Veggies

• home-baked snacks

• Popping your own popcorn

• bread from the bakery

• Plastic free snacks

We are sure you have many other ideas as well.  To help us celebrate please take photos of your family preparing your snacks and save them to this folder.

We are really excited for you to join our journey on our No Single-Use Plastic Day.

We will promote No Single Use Plastic Day on 24th March with these posters below.

Dear Parents and Carers,

Each year we teach the children relationship and sexuality education (RSE) applicable to their age and stage. These lessons will take place between now and the end of the school year.

Please find attached a video to explain what this looks like in years 1-3 and 4-6 

Y1 to 3

Y4 to 6

It is advisable to talk further with your children at home to allow them a chance to ask questions and to share your own family values and perspectives.  This is best done when questions arise from your child or when your child has RSE lessons.

For Years 1 to 3, the lessons are taught across the year.  For Y4 to 6, we dedicated set times because there is more content to cover

Y4 5th to 16th May

Y5  24th Feb to 7th March

Y6 6th to 17th Jan
