Grinshill Class News
Author Visit
Today, Teresa Heapy, who wrote many picture books came and spent the day with us at school. She read us some of her stories and spent time with each year group creating characters and story ideas. We were also joined by children from Packwood School.
Teresa signed some of her books which we will share in school.
Hopefully, the children will go home feeling inspired to write their own stories.
World Book Day 2023
Today we have celebrated World Book Day at school. The children all looked amazing when we got together in the hall, to share a story. The staff at school have dressed to be the colour monsters from the book the ‘Colour Monster’. Mrs Foster read it to the whole school.
All classes have been carrying out World Book Day activities in their classes and some classes took part in a live lesson with hundreds of other schools.
Hopefully the children have come home inspired to read more for pleasure!

This week, KS2 watched a live lesson from Staffordshire Fire and Rescue about water safety. The series is called Safe and Sound, which hosts a weekly live health and safety update for KS2 pupils:

Stars of the Week
Well done to our Star pupils this week.
Visitor in Grinshill
We are very grateful to Mrs Gilbert (Beatrice’s mum) for coming into school today. Mrs Gilbert is a vet and was able to talk to the children about some animal skeletons.
The children asked some very interesting questions and enjoyed holding the bones.

We are proud to introduce our Bomere Heath Stars of the Week!
Skeletons found in owl pellets
