Happy World Book Day!
We celebrated World Book Day a day early as we had a very special visitor planned:
author Sean Perkins! We have had a fantastic time listening to Sean's books all about Oscar and Ben. Sean then delivered workshops throughout the school where children created their own Teacher Creatures or Personified stationary.
Sean even got us joining in with a sing song about Oscar and Ben.
Our theme for World Book Day has been Snuggle up with a Book. We all came to school in our pyjamas and have had a wonderful day reading with our friends.
Coppull Parish Primary School Poetry Slam 2023
This morning every class took part in the Coppull Parish Poetry Slam. We had such a wide variety of poems from classic rhymes to modern poetry which even linked in to Safer Internet day!
The children were full of creativity and confidence with some children even reading out their own poems that they had written in class. Some classes thought of actions to go along with their poems some classes even had props.
Videos of the performances have been posted on to Class Dojo if you would like to have a listen.
A massive well done to everybody!
This term our focus in English has been poetry. We have absolutely loved reading a diverse selection of poems from a variety of poets. On Friday we will be holding a Poetry Slam so to get us buzzing about poetry we were lucky to have poet Andy Tooze visit us.
We started the day with a whole school assembly where Andy performed his poems and got us up and joining in.
Throughout the day each class had a workshop with Andy were they learnt a poem and wrote their own poems.
At the end of the day we had a special assembly where a few children from each class performed their poems (even some of the teachers and adults performed too).
It was such a fantastic day and we are all so excited for the poetry slam on Friday now!
Last Friday, four members of the Kingdom Club were lucky enough to be invited to the Fairtrade Conference organized by Lancashire County Council at County Hall in Preston. It was a wonderful day. The children met in the grand Council Chamber and took part in lectures, workshops and quizzes about various aspects of Fairtrade, including the production of tea, cocoa and chocolate. The children learned a great deal and will be sharing this with the rest of the school in an assembly during Fairtrade Fortnight this year.
We took lots of photographs to commemorate the occasion. Take a look at what we got up to.
