NOW IS THE TIME TO SING UP!
GET READY FOR WORLD THINKING DAY 2010
Today, 30,000 children die every day from poverty and neglect, and two billion people live without adequate food and basic needs. The World Thinking Day theme for 2010 is girls worldwide say "together we can end extreme poverty and hunger" and the aim is to raise awareness among everyone about the situation and improve the lives of the poorest people in the world.
To mark this special occasion, children who belong to Rainbows, Brownies, Guides or Girl Scouts can wear their uniform to school on 22nd February 2010.
The delegates chose 22nd February as the date for Thinking Day because it was the mutual birthday of Lord Baden-Powell, founder of the Boy Scout Movement, and his wife Olave, who served as World Chief Guide.
The Sing Up Awards celebrate schools that value singing and promote music and singing as part of every day school life.
At Olveston School we enjoy singing, whether this be in assembly, at the end of lessons, in the play-ground or as a warm up. We are currently working towards a Sing Up silver award.
PARENTS IN PARTNERSHIP (PIP)
You will have received a letter about a new initiative called Parents in Partnership. We are always keen to share ideas and school developments with parents/carers and gain their views on school matters.
We are looking for any parent/carer who would like to be a part of this group. We are not holding elections for this role and there can be more than one parent/carer from each class.
Topics covered at the meetings will include areas such as Curriculum, Communication, Travel, Playground interactions, School trips , Lost property, Behaviour, Safety.
Our first meeting will take place on Friday 26th March from 2.30pm. If you think you would like to be a part of the PIP Group, please go to the school office. We look forward to seeing you there.
To achieve a silver award we need to - Sing in every class at least twice a week; Sing as a whole school at least once a week; At least 2 staff confident in leading singing; Families and visitors to get involved in singing. We will keep you all in-formed as to how we are progressing towards this award.
