FRIDAY FLYER
Welcome Back!
As you will have seen from your child’s class Curriculum Offer which was sent home
last week, the final term of the school year has already got off to a busy start.
The whole of Key Stage 1 enjoyed a visit from Sam at the Exotic Zoo; she brought
a variety of animals along and, as you can see from the photographs below, the
children thoroughly enjoyed handling them.
Key Stage 2 children also enjoyed a fun activity on out first day back; a toga party
was held in the hall and the Egyptians of Base 6 and the Greeks in Bases 7 & 8 were
waited on by Base 5 Tudor servants.
Base 6 children enjoyed their first woodwind session from Telford & Wrekin Music
Service this week and all of the children in Key Stage 2 took part in their first
swimming session of the term.

Reminders & Information
After school clubs for children attend-
ing April and May sessions start next
week—please ensure they are collected
promptly at 4.15 p.m.
Please remember others when parking
outside school—we have already
received calls from our neighbours
reporting that driveways are being
blocked by parents bringing children
to and, collecting them from school.
You will remember that earlier in the
year, we informed you that we would
not telephone home for things that
children had forgotten to bring to
school e.g. PE/swimming kit, home-
work etc. The reason for this is that
we try to encourage children’s
independence and for them to accept
responsibility for their actions; this is
particularly important for children in
Year 6 in preparation for transfer to
senior school.
Breakfast club starts at 8.00 a.m. and
children should arrive no later that
8.15 a.m. in order to have sufficient
time to be served and eat their break-
fast. As numbers at breakfast club are
growing, please ensure that you book
your child in with the office at least
one day in advance. Current cost is
£1.40
Please remember to inform school of
any changes in contact details for use
in case of emergency.
Thank you for your continued support!

Kornel, B5 was chosen to take part in the Tennis Association’s Young Tennis Player Gifted & Talented programme at Loughborough University over the Easter holidays, meanwhile Luke B8 and his sister, Sofia B4 earned their one star skiing badges with Ecole Ski France . Luke Base 8 will have his name included on the fin of the Bloodhound SSC jet and rocket powered car when it attempts to break the 1,000mph land speed record in two year’s time. Luke won this fantastic prize at the Big Bang science and technology show at the NEC in Birmingham, after designing his own lightweight and streamlined car that beat all others on the day with a top speed of 78mph. Well Done all of you!
TEAGUES BRIDGE PRIMARY SCHOOL
KS1 Class News
The children in Base 1 have been extremely busy this week; they
have made invitations to the Queen’s birthday party and flags to
celebrate St George’s Day. They are also very excited as they have
some caterpillars in their class and they have been studying them in
order to retell the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
In Base 2, as well as making information booklets to send to Sam from the
Exotic Zoo, the children have made and sent birthday cards t the Queen.
They have also undertaken science experiments this week; they had fake mini-
beasts frozen in ice cubes and were developing ways on how to make the ice
melt ~ this was a very enjoyable activity.
Sam’s visit also impressed the children in Base 3 as they too, have been
writing reports about the animals they saw. This led in nicely to their P4C
lessons when they discussed whether or not to have a pet and what they
need to do to look after it. In geography, the children have been making
maps of Katie-Morag’s Island.
The children in Base 4 have carried out research about the Queen this week.
They have written a letter to her, made a fact-file and created a time-line
about her reign.
