Mrs Roberts, Mr Field and Mrs Quigley transformed into Hogwarts teachers Hagrid, Professor Umbridge and Professor Trelawney.
We will update with more pictures throughout the day.
Money Matters
Yesterday, Wrekin and Stiperstones took park in a PSHE game show. They were visited by White Socks Theatre Company. They played games and competed for points which represented money. They learnt about the value of money and how to keep it safe.
They all had a great morning.
Ask your child what they learnt.

Anti-Bullying Resources
We recently experienced anti-bullying week in school, when we focussed on kind words, helping others and looking out for each other.
The official website carries some resources for parents and carers, as well as plenty of information about bullying, mental health and strategies to help each other.
Here is the link:

I would urge you to have a look at the resources and talk to your children about it!
Many thanks
Mr Field!
Mobile Phone Safety – Help Your Children!
Do you want to help your child use their mobile phone safely?
We know that some of our older pupils have their own mobile phones and we regularly talk in classes about how to stay safe whilst online or using their phone.
I have seen a useful resource from EE that is designed for parents and carers of older primary-age children – it allows grown-ups to fully understand how children use their phones, how to help them identify risks and also gives children a ‘PhoneSmart Licence’ if they complete the ‘course’!
You simply need to register yourself, then set-up your child’s profile, then they can log-in and complete some fun online activities with you to show they understand how to use their phone in a ‘smart way’!
In this world of changing communication and media use, it is really worth while taking control of helping our children – I hope this is useful and I would appreciate any feedback!

The Bomere Beagle – Issue 1
Hi everyone! I am proud to publish my Newshound Club’s first issue of their school newspaper – The Bomere Beagle.
A dedicated group of Year 5 and 6 pupils have been working hard to explore and write news stories about our school. They will publish the newspaper every few weeks throughout the year.
We hope you enjoy reading it and if you have a story for them, please let us know!

Reading Challenge
Today we are launching our ‘Reading Challenge’ and this time we have linked your child’s reading to several journeys around the world.
It’s not that easy to travel at the moment but we are thinking about people all over the world. Why not read your way around the world with the Reading Miles Global Challenge.
Collect 500 reading miles for every 30 minutes you spend reading, with a parent, carer, or your brother or sister. You could even video call your relatives and read aloud to them. You just need a signature, amount of time read and time you read at. Collect reading miles in a special reading passport on your very own reading world tour – a whopping 33,000 miles in total! Reading counts between 8am and 7pm.
The challenge is split into seven journeys, each of which finishes in a ‘checkpoint city’.
The following resources are available to download and print off to enable you to take part in the challenge.
• A wall map of the world charting the Reading Miles Global Challenge route
• A passport to record the reading
• A certificate for when you complete the challenge
• Postcards which you can complete when you reach checkpoint cities.
• All children that complete the each journey challenge will have their names entered into the draw to win the reading challenge box of goodies. Complete all 7 journeys and you will have 7 entries, so a much better chance of winning.

We hope you will enjoy and support us with this reading challenge.
Kind regards,

Netball News!
We want to say well done to our Y5/6 netball team for their participation in the recent Corbet Netball Tournament.
A team of boys and girls did very well indeed, finishing just two points behind the eventual winners.
We are hoping to compete in several more sports competitions soon, including tag rugby and cross country!
Dogs Trust Visit
Alison from the Dogs Trust, based at Roden, came to visit KS2 classes today. She taught the children many ideas about maintaining safety around dogs. Pupils in Wrekin, Stiperstones and Grinshill talked through scenarios and situations and found out how to interact with dogs in various places.
If you would like any more information about Dogs Trust, please visit https://www.dogstrust.org.uk/our-centres/shrewsbury/
