Grand Opening of our I. T. Suite in the Old School Hall
After many months of waiting for the building work to be complete, it was lovely to see the children’s faces as they entered ‘Little Acorns’ for the first time.
The children were joined by members of the parish, staff and parents to celebrate our wonderful new facility. Mrs Wood, Mr Bonney and Miss Plews entertained us with a retelling of their favourite story. The children also sang, ‘The Building Song’ and ‘Taller than the Mountains’ with great gusto!
It would not be an exaggeration to say that our new facility has a very magical feel. This is thanks to some wonderful art work created by a group of parents. We really are very lucky to have such support, giving our school that something extra special!
We are hoping that the new Parent Helper area will be well used by all the volunteers who give their time so generously. For many years we have wanted to create a space for helpers to have a tea or coffee and we are pleased that this space is now available for all to use.
The celebrations were only complete once the ribbon had been cut. Our eldest and youngest children (Ella, Year 6 and Molly, Reception) took great pride in declaring Little Acorns ‘officially open!’
It has been a joy to see the children making full use of the facilities over the last two weeks. We would like this space to be used and enjoyed by our school community. Please see details of Internet Cafe below.
Come to our Internet Café!
In Term 4 we are looking forward to the re-launch of our Internet Café. This is a community facility that will enable members of the local area to use our computer suite and enjoy a tea or coffee!
The Internet Café will be run by Mrs Luke and a team of Key Stage 2 children. This is a valuable opportunity for the children to plan how the Internet Café should work and share their ICT skills with a wider audience.
The Internet café will be open from 2.30—3.30pm. The first session will be on Friday 27th February 2009. If you would like to come along, please see, or telephone, Mrs Slaytor at the school office.
We look forward to sharing our new facilities with you!
