Hello everyone, 

Once again a busy and fun week at FMPS!

In Panda's this week, it was George's Time to Shine! George shared with us his love for football and brought in some of his favourite football card players! The children had lots of questions including 'Who is better, Messi or Ronaldo?' which caused quite a debate! Thank you for sharing with us George! - Miss Robson

In this week's Time to Shine, Tigers Class were lucky enough to find out more about the wonderful world of Harvey in his presentation 'All About Me'. We loved discovering more about his family, pets, hobbies and his many skills and goals. Harvey even brought in a selection of his favourite sea glass, fossils, shells and interesting rocks/pebbles that he has collected whilst beachcombing for us to look at. We also enjoyed the opportunity to ask Harvey more about his favourite animal, the cabybara, which sparked a fact-sharing discussion about this fascinating creature. It was great fun watching his videos of the Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live show too!

North East Festival of Languages Escape Room. From January up until the end of March it is the North East Festival of Languages as part of this we will be taking part in a number of activities to celebrate languages from around the world. Llamas took part in Ursa Lingua's Castle Quest Escape Room. The class (in groups) had to solve language problems in order to find out the 6 language values to escape the castle. The languages the children had to decipher were Dutch, Slovak, Danish, French, Spanish and Italian. The class did really well escaping the castle.

The Grasshoppers have been busy exploring the local community over the past week. We have used skills to prepare us for adult hood such as, writing shopping lists, safely crossing busy roads and handing money over at a shop counter. We listened carefully to our teachers and followed their instructions. We all walked safely to the shops and back by holding hands with our teachers and stopping at the end of paths, waiting for any traffic to pass us. We have all learnt lots of new skills, which we can use in everyday life.

Skye's Time to Shine, in her Time to Shine this week, Skye opened our eyes to a sport we didn’t even know existed...hobby horsing! Skye told us all about the origins of hobby horsing, how high people can jump, the Hobby Horsing Championships and even discussed the argument over whether it should be seen as a real sport. She ended her presentation with some fun facts, and we even had time to watch a short video of a hobby horsing competition in action. We all agreed it looks like a lot of fun, and we thought the hobby horse she brought in to show us was beautiful!

Elsie's Time to Shine - Elsie's star quality and talent shone through during her 'Time to Shine' this week. She worked incredibly hard to create a presentation that told us all about her passion for singing and even included a beautiful video compilation of her performances from being a toddler to the present day. To round off her presentation, Elsie treated us to a fabulous rendition of 'Roar'! Her dream is to be a singer just like Katy Perry or Ariana Grande, and we have no doubt that this dream will become a reality!
