October 2020 Update

By | FOML | No Comments
Hello and Welcome

Welcome to all new parents and carers to our wonderful school from the Friends of Manby Lodge. All of us are automatically members of the Friends of Manby Lodge PTA. Our purpose is to fundraise for our school, to provide extra experiences or equipment to enhance the learning experience of all our children. We endeavour to raise money to enable Miss Morris and her team to spend, spend, spend in the same year so that our children immediately benefit.

Monies raised in 2019-2020

Thank you for your generosity in the last school year. You will see the breakdown of monies raised and spent last year in the minutes of the AGM which was help on Friday 9th October 2020. In summary, we were delighted to raise £12,867 in a tough year. Miss Morris used just over £20k of the PTA funds. Please see the AGM minutes for further information.

We encourage everyone to join their class WhatsApp group and to subscribe to Facebook to communicate directly with the PTA Committee and to join our ‘virtual’ community.

Year R Pumpkin Fun

By | 2020 - 2021 School Year | No Comments
In Reception, the children have been having lots of fun with pumpkins!  We have been sharing the story “Pumpkin Soup” which inspired the children to explore inside some different sized pumpkins.  The children have written some wonderful recipes and had lots of fun making their own versions of pumpkin soup.  Please see the website “Gallery” for more photographs.

 Here are our winners from the Extreme Reading Competition. We had a fantastic range of entries and these were chosen as the winners for each year group.  By the looks of things it is possible to read upside down, or balanced on a tractor and in the extreme cold (-4 degrees!)

Year R Shared Learning

Reception were eager to share their excellent maths knowledge with their parents in our ‘shared learning’ session.

They enjoyed exploring the classroom and making repeating patterns with different resources. At the end of the session they showcased some brilliant problem solving skills to spot mistakes in  patterns.   Please see the website “Gallery” for lots more pictures.

Year R – Zoolab Visit

In Reception we have had some very exciting visitors! The children enjoyed meeting and learning about different animals including a snake and tarantula. They were very careful when handling them and were especially excited to see the snake move on the floor.   Please see the website “Gallery” for more pictures.
