We have had a brilliant day today celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, with all children carrying out a range of creative activities in the classroom and taking part in a street party style lunch, with lots of flag waving and patriotic singing involved.
We were delighted by the number of children who had brought in a Jubilee crown/hat to celebrate the occasion. All children had the opportunity to show off their wonderful creations at the Jubilee street party and two winners were chosen for each class, who then took part in a final hat parade, so that I could select the two ultimate winners. These children were: Alfie (Year 2) and James C (Year 3). A huge well done to everyone who got into the spirit of things and made the effort to create a crown – you looked amazing!!
Here are some photographs of the event - enjoy!
We have had yet another fantastic Health Week at Coppull Parish. All of our children have had the opportunity to take part in a wide range of different sports and activities to support their physical and social development and promote mental health and well-being. This year, they have participated in Forest School, tri-golf, the Beat Goes on, yoga, kick boxing, urban funk street dance, zumba, crown green bowling, mindfulness, reiki, Drumzaloud and first aid training. We also had a visit from Mr Ingham, who works for British Olympic Cycling, who brought with him Kyle Evans, a BMX Olympian who developed his skills at Coppull BMX track when he was a teenager. The children have also researched South African sporting stars, as part of our Geography continent focus and produced some wonderful facts files and biographies in Literacy. A huge thank you to Mrs Cooper for organizing the event and well done to all the children who tried something new and discovered that they loved it!
Our Kingdom Club arranged a Big Brekkie to raise funds for Christian Aid week today. We have 153 children sign up for the event and have raised £124 for this marvellous charity. Our Guardians and Deputy Guardians made all the toast, while the Kingdom Club were responsible for serving all the breakfasts and clearing up between sittings. They all did a magnificent job and should be very proud of themselves. Here are some photographs of the event.
Coppull Parish were selected for a visit from Strider, the WOW Travel Tracker mascot, as a special reward for being in the top 10 schools in the whole of Lancashire for participation in this active travel scheme. Our Kingdom Club signed up to the WOW Travel Tracker in order to reduce congestion and air pollution around school, and encourage the children to walk/cycle or scoot to school to improve their mental health and well-being whilst increasing their fitness. Our families have really supported us with this and the children wear their WOW badges with pride. There were crowds of excited children on the playground this morning, eager to meet Strider and have their photographs taken. Here are some photographs which capture the event. What a great start to the day!
Everyone who took part yesterday, as a participant in the run, or in a support role, appeared to be having a fabulous time at this new PTFA event. It was so wonderful to see children and parents running together, having fun and raising money for the school. A huge thank you to the PTFA team for coming up with the idea and organizing it so well. We are looking forward to finding out how much sponsor money has been raised, and will let you know when all monies are collected. In the meantime, well done to all the runners, sponsors and the people who gave up their time to support the event.
