High Beeches Primary School Newsletter 12th October 2012
Thank you to all the parents and carers who
contributed to the FoHBs clothing collection this week. Details can be found
below.
Year 6 enjoyed a day at the old courtrooms in St Albans as a part of their Victorian topic and Year 5
had a super day at Hatfield House linked to their Tudor topic. It is so
pleasing to hear of the learning from the visits they really do enthuse and
engage the children and we try to take every opportunity to enhance the
learning for the children. Year 2 also visited Pan Autos as part of the Move
with the Times topic, what better way to learn the names of the parts of a car
than from a mechanic? Thank you for all your continued support in enabling us
to offer the children these and other extended learning opportunities.
Well done to the Learners of the Week,
we are very proud of you all.

CBBC Horrible Histories - Gory Games Applications welcome
E mail
from a producer at the BBC – application forms available in the school office.
We are currently looking for participants between the ages 8 and
12 for a new series of 'Horrible Histories -Gory Games'. I believe we had some
great applications from your pupils for our previous series and wondered if any
of your pupils would like to apply. We like applications from Horrible
Histories fans who are confident, chatty and don't mind getting gunged!
If you have seen the show you will know it's based on historical
facts from the Horrible Histories series, we ask our contestants a variety of history
questions, and they get the chance to play messy, fun games based on various
historical events. Series two is currently being shown on CBBC, and we are
going to be filming our next series in February.
I've attached an application form, Pupils need to get permission
from their parent/guardian and then fill out the form and post it back to the
address on the front. Or they can bring it back to school and we can send you
out a stamped addressed envelope to send them all back.
Our closing date for applications in January… but the quicker
children apply the better!
