A beautiful spring morning this morning. Mavis thought it was about time she checked out the onions growing in the veg beds, then she did a meet-&-greet at the school gates and bumped into our lovely PCSO Rachel ๐ธ ๐ง ๐ ๐ฎ@bluekitetrust
A wonderful Christmas production by Y1 today - the first time many of them have performed to an audience. Some really strong, clear voices and utterly brilliant singing!
Mrs S felt very proud of them all ๐ @bluekitetrust
Very excited to receive our signed copies of Hannah Dosanjhโs book, How Bright Ideas Built a Railway Town called Swindon. We are very much looking forward to sharing them with the children. Thank you Hannah Dosanjh Artist - we canโt wait for your next one ๐ #bluekitetrust
Donโt forget we have the Colebrook Friends Christmas Fair tomorrow from 12.00 - 2.00 at the Coleview Community Centre.
Mrs S is particularly looking forward to the glitter tattoos ๐
And the cakes.
Definitely the cakes ๐ ๐ฐ ๐ง ๐ @bluekitetrust
Resting after a busy day today.
Mavis listened to children in Year 1 and Year 2 read and in between she enjoyed a game of โSniff and Wagโ as children placed cheese on the multiples of 10 on the playground number line for her to sniff out!
Well done Mavis, enjoy your snooze #BKAT
A wonderful day at @steam_museum for our Y1 pupils today. Theyโve been learning all about Brunel, bridges and railways and this was a great day to see much of this in action. The icing on the cake was a talk from our very own Miss Kemble #engineersofthefuture@bluekitetrust
Today marks the start of #AntibullyingWeek!๐ซ
People who experience #bullying have a greater risk of both mental health and behaviour problems.
To support #bullyingprevention, we've put together a list of bullying behaviours. Identify them is the first step to stopping them!
A reminder of our Phonics Workshop for all parents of Y1 &Y2 children tomorrow morning from 8.50 in the school hall!
Looking forward to seeing you there ๐
The mini-scientists had varied success with their designs: 4 cracked, 4 remained whole - but everyone had a good time!

Mrs S LOVED taking Science Club today. We had a bit of a Humpty theme going on where the children had to design a safety bag to protect him when he fell off the wall.
We discovered Humpty was actually quite a nosey neighbour who liked disco dancing on walls to party music...
This morning, Mavis and Mrs S were out early, surveying the veg beds in the sunshine. Onions and garlics are making an appearance ๐ง ๐ฑ ๐
Sounds in the grounds today: Frank Sinatra, Glen Campbell and Mark Ronson ft Bruno Mars.
A great Friday mix!
Happy weekend everyone๐

Mavis back in school today, listening to Year 2 readers. Sheโs worked hard, meeting & greeting at the school gate, being on her best behaviour at all times and joining us for Celebration Assembly. Nice one Mave ๐๐ผ! #BKAT#schoollearningdogs#readingforpleasure ๐ถ ๐
How do you deal with grief? ๐ Our free #WakeUpWednesday guide with @TheNatCollege has tips to support children with the events of recent days. In our second guide, we celebrate the reign of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with a commemorative timeline. >> https://t.co/cX1VW9EMta
When a rather special person comes to talk to your team about reading with children!
Inspiring, motivating & wonderfully funny!
Canโt wait to share our new books with the children. Thank you Neil Griffiths. We look forward to seeing you soon #BKAT#cornertolearn#redrobinbooks
The Blue Kite Academy Trust would like to express its deepest sadness following the loss of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. We offer our sincere condolences to the Royal Family.
A huge thank you to the Friends of Colebrook for all their super-hard work fundraising for both the Infant and Junior schools. Today we were delighted to receive a cheque for a whopping ยฃ1500! We look forward to showing you how this has benefitted the children very soon! ๐
