Welcome to Samphire Class
Coming back to school.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back to school on Monday 8th March.
It might be that some of you are a bit worried about returning. That is fine. We are all allowed to be worried. It's normal when things change. Some of you will be excited or looking forward to returning - that is fine too.
You can talk to any of the adults in school, if you need to.
Children should be coming to school in PE kit as there will be lessons in the afternoon which will now be run by a coach from Kings Lynn Community Football club,
To start off the day we will be beginning a music project based on the true story of the man in the picture, who is called Ibn Al-Haytham. He was a scientist who lived about 1000 years ago.
There is no need to bring anything into school apart from packed lunches. Please leave pencil cases, sanitisers and other bags at home. Anything we need in class will be provided.
There is no requirement for children to wear masks in school. If children choose to wear them, they must follow the guidance in the letter recently sent out by Mr King.
Hand washing: Children will sanitise or wash hands every time they come into the classroom as well as before and after eating.
In Years 5 and 6, CHildren have been looking at Wizards.
Harry's Writing Work
This included making some potions. They look great!

GOOGLE CLASSROOM for Years 5 & 6.
From next Monday there will be separate Google Classrooms for Year 5 and Year 6. They will be organised by DAY rather than subject, so hopefully things will be easier to find.
To get the most from Google Classroom make sure you log into your school email first (go to gmail.com) then click on the nine dots near the top right hand corner, where you will see the Classroom App.
There have been a few queries about the labels that some providers attach to year groups e.g. the current science topic. As we have mixed age classes, we run a rolling program to ensure that children cover all the required subject knowledge, so they may study some subjects in a different order. Please be assured that children are set work at an appropriate level.
SCHOOL CLOSURE: JANUARY 2021
Hello everyone,
We hope you all had a great Christmas, and that Santa brought everything you may have wanted.
As you will know, the school is currently closed. Hopefully, we will re-open soon.
Work will be set each day on Google Classroom. If we continue to remain closed, we will provide Work packs to be collected.
As much as possible we will try and follow the Class Timetable. This means that each morning work will be scheduled to appear as follows.
9:00 - Reading/Comprehension Activities
9:45 - Grammar or Writing Activities
10:45 - Maths Activities
During the afternoon various activities will be posted relating to what we have done in school or what we are about to do...keep an eye out!
Best wishes
Mr Johnson, Mrs Willis and Mrs Richardson.
