Today, Angelou class performed their assembly to parents. The children were very confident and were able to report facts about the inspirational Mary Seacole and how she was best known for her work as a nurse in the Crimean War. The children had also written their own poem about Mary Seacole.

Today, the children took part in a live Kindness Workshop linked to 52 Lives Random Acts of Kindness Week with many other schools. The children made cards as a kind gesture for people who were important to them. Our school was selected and the children's work was shown during the live workshop.

The children will be bringing a Kindness Challenge to complete during half term. Please see the letter section for more information. The children will also bringing this home this week.

This half term, we introduced our new Eco monitors for each class in Year 1 to Year 5/6. The children all have their new sustainable Eco monitor badges and have been taking their role and responsibilities very seriously. 

For example, the Eco monitors ensure any unwanted paper and plastic bottles are recycled and placed in the new class recycle boxes. Then, at the end of the week, they will take these to the main recycling bin with our Site Manager. The monitors also ensure all the lights and interactive whiteboard and heating are turned off when they are leaving their classrooms.

Today, our after school clubs began for this term. The children really enjoy attending the enrichment clubs that we offer at Delta.

We had our first ever Bikability Club, where the children were learning about being safe on the bike when travelling on the footpaths and roads with an adult. They will soon be moving onto knowing when to use hand signals correctly.

Today Reception Rosen, Year 1 Kahlo and Year 2 Mandela participated in a Drama Workshop with the company Perform.  The children were very engaged and enjoyed expressing themselves and being in role of many different characters.
