Hello everyone, 

Another very busy week here at FMPS!

Safer Internet Day

Earlier this week the whole school celebrated Safer Internet Day.  The children enjoyed a whole school assembly with the Digital Leaders and our Online Safety Mascot WIFI.  During the assembly we talked about the theme of ‘Smart Tech, Safe Choices’ and discussed the different uses of AI.  We talked about how ‘Smart Tech’ such as Alexa can be really useful to us, but we also talked about the importance of making ‘Smart Choices’ when interacting with AI. The children suggested different ways to stay safe by questioning where information comes from, considering if the information is real and where they could access help and support from if they felt unsafe. 

The learning continued back in class where the children took part in a wide range of online safety lessons including tracking their digital footprints, AI quizzes, and looking more closely at the technology involved in using voice activated devices.

Our very youngest learners also took part and enjoyed a very special class visit from WIFI.  They talked about how they used technology and some of the different ways they could use it safely.  The children created their own online safety passports and identified adults they could ask for help both at home and at school.

We all had a fantastic day and really enjoyed exploring the safe use of the internet and especially AI.

Bhairavi's Time to Shine - Today, Bhairavi wowed us all during her Time to Shine presentation as she shared her passion for Bharatanatyam dance and Carnatic music. We were treated to wonderful videos of Bhairavi performing on stage in a beautiful piece inspired by nature, and we also had the pleasure of hearing her sing. Bhairavi explained how dancing has helped her grow braver and more confident, and how this style of music brings her a sense of calm and peace. Thank you, Bhairavi, for sharing your Indian culture with us today.

Hello everyone, 

Once again lots to talk about!

Year 5/6 visited the Life Centre to consolidate our Earth and Space topic. The children had the opportunity to explore the different activities and also take part in two workshops. As well as being able to further explore the topic of space the children also were able to look at activities to do with light, pulleys and levers and solve problems using a variety of skills. The classes thoroughly enjoyed the workshops; one in the planetarium, which looked at our world, space and beyond our solar system and the other looking at real or fake, which asked the to use the acronym FRESH when questioning whether something is real or fake.

Hello everyone, 

Lots to talk about this week at FMPS!

Abdulaziz shared books by his favourite author, Dav Pilkey, during his 'Time to Shine' today. With the support of his friends, he confidently answered questions about why he enjoys reading graphic novels, when he first became interested in books by this author and which book in the Dog Man series he loved reading the most. It was wonderful to hear the boys speak with such enthusiasm about their shared reading interests - Mrs Chadwick even suggested starting their own book club!

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!

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.
