Cooler Weather has arrived! 

With the cooler weather you are naturally wanting your child to wear more layers of clothing to school.  Please note that the correct school uniform must be worn, in particular school jumpers and P.E. jackets instead of non uniform long-sleeve tops underneath P.E. and school shirts. 

We have clear expectations regarding our school uniform. Sometimes students may need to wear something different for a short period of time if they have outgrown a pair of shoes for example, but we encourage everyone to adhere to the uniform at all times. We appreciate your support in helping to ensure we maintain our strong identity and that all the children feel a sense of pride in wearing the BHS colours.

All children need a hat for break, lunch times and PE lessons. Please ensure they are clearly labelled. NO HAT, NO PLAY!

Please remember that we have a no nut policy at BHS due to some children having severe allergies. This includes peanut butter sandwiches and nuts in cookies or cakes.

We had a fantastic time during our Sports day. The children really enjoyed all the activities led by the adults in our school. Thank you to all the parents who came to support your child/ children on the day! 
 

I LOVE the colors and flow of this IB Transdisciplinary Theme Poster for Sharing the Planet!|:

 People worldwide have access to rights and opportunities that can look different.

Lines of Inquiry

  1. Difference between needs and wants (Perspective)
  2. Children’s rights and responsibilities ( Responsibility)
  3. How children rights are protected (Reflection)

This week the children have met their flour babies and have given them a name and nationality.

Over the next two weeks your child will get the opportunity to bring their group’s flour baby home for one evening.

As a responsible parent your child will need to make sure all their baby’s rights are met; these are listed in their baby book.

Each child’s homework will be on the day they bring their baby home.

Children will need to take care and entertain their baby throughout the afternoon and evening and must bring them in the next day.

Each child will need to fill in the reflection sheet in the Baby Book and support it with photos, drawings or recounts of the time spent with their baby.

Photos can be emailed to their class teacher if necessary.

This week the children had their first attempt at writing a narrative using a picture as their stimulus. Next week the children will inquire into the features of a narrative text. 

The children will also compose a poem based on Children’s Rights that they will display during their sharing day.
