We have been learning that today marks 75 years since the D-Day landings, which took place on 6 June 1944 during World War Two.
Have a look at this link to share what we have learnt today;

We will remember them.
Team Smalley enjoyed an after school session of gardening to look after our school environment. Each staff member chose a child to come and help with lots of jobs including weeding the raised beds, planting new bedding plants, planting potatoes, watering and tidying and repotting Hannah’s garden. All of the children had a drink and a biscuit after they had worked really hard! It was a lovely outdoor session, thank you children for helping!
Who needs Groundforce when you have Team Smalley?!
Wow! What an exciting day! Year 4 have joined in Roman games, art activities, bridge building and even experienced a Roman medical operation! They've also handled Roman artefacts and tasted Roman food and drink ... some more delicious than others! To round off the day, the children became Roman soldiers and fought Barbarians from a battle formation! Thank you to Partake Theatre Company for an amazing experience. I hope you all enjoyed it Year 4!
It was a tricky decision with lots of brilliant entries from all year groups! Well done and thank you to all who entered.
Here are the winning designs. Well done Ava and Phoebe! Your designs will be used on the egg boxes on the eggs for sale at the school summer fair. 😊🐣

Thank you to our visiting PCSO officers (Police Community Support Officer) for reinforcing the importance of crossing the road safety.
The officers delivered 3 sessions to EYFS, Key Stage 1, Lower Key Stage 2 and Upper Key Stage 2; they taught the children about how roads are for the cars and the pavement is for the pedestrians and how we must STOP, LOOK, LISTEN and THINK before crossing the road. The children spotted hidden dangers and how to be very careful around parked cars. The children explored the importance of bright or fluorescent clothing when walking and how BEING BRIGHT helps us to BE SEEN. The children looked at the different types of crossing and how we know it is safe to cross.
Thank you children for listening so carefully to this important life skill. Please remember always STOP, LOOK, LISTEN and THINK.
COMPETITION TIME
Before leaving the school, the PCSO officers set a competition for all pupils. The competition is to design a road safety poster to help all children and adults in our community to stay safe near the roads. Three winners will be chosen and then their poster will be turned into a banner, to be displayed outside school. Please get your thinking caps on and start designing. The closing date for this is on Wednesday, 10th April 2019. Please bring any entries to your class teacher, complete with your name and class on the back.
GOOD LUCK!
