New Thinkuknow game and website for 8-10 year olds

Band Runner: New Thinkuknow game and website for 8-10 year olds - N.B This will replace the Cyber café resource which will be live until 21st December 2018

This is a fun runner-style game, available on the Thinkuknow website, which you can use in the classroom and encourage children to play at home. The game features the characters from Play Like Share: Sam, Alfie and Ellie who continue their adventures, this time running through school and collecting stars and points, whilst children support them to make decisions online.

Resources to share with parents/carers

Parent Zone has made available a number of guides that focus on 'trending' apps and games that pupils are engaging with. You may wish to add some of these links to your website or include them in newsletters.

If parents or grandparents would like to join us on our KS2 trip to the Rep Theatre in Birmingham, to see the much loved Wizard of Oz, in January, please let the school office know ASAP, to secure your place! 🙏💕🙏

We would like to wish Mrs Mitchell & her husband every blessing, as they prepare for the arrival of their wonderful baby in a couple of weeks time! May God bless them with love & compassion as they wait the new arrival. Love from all at OLSK! 💕💕

On Wednesday we had a whole school assembly to honour Miss Costello and thank her for her hard work and dedication to OLSK over the last thirty years! Each class got up and showed how special she is by singing, dancing and reciting poems. We each presented her with a class card. She will be greatly missed by staff and children alike! We wish her farewell and a long and happy retirement!

Today, the Mini Vinnies took all the gifts they bought with the money you donated from the OLSK Bake Off, to the Birmingham Children’s Hospital, including a cheque for over £100. The staff were totally overwhelmed with your generosity and asked us to thank you in return. We had a wonderful morning being shown around the hospital, including a visit to the hospital school and the Chapel; truly beautiful. 

 

On our return- look who paid us a visit; our own little mascot- Vinnie Holliday! He even joined the Mini Vinnies by placing his handprint on the wall; how cool is he! His mom tells us that he is really good health and now he’s walking, just like any other toddler, he’s into everything. Lol 

 

Thank you to all our Mini Vinnies for their hard work this year & to you the parents, for your continued support! 

The Mini Vinnies had the opportunity to make their mark in school, by adding their handprint & signing their name on the Mini Vinnie Wall. Matt Johnson, a past pupil helped them make their mark. Mrs Finnegan & Matt, added their handprint too.
