Weekly Prayer
This Week's News

Ashleigh, Year 6
Mr Bragard’s Weekly Update
We have reached the halfway mark of the autumn term. This half term has been action-packed with lots of learning, special moments, assemblies, sports action and much more. There have been so many highlights already but my favourite moment was last week’s One Million Children Praying the Rosary. It was such a powerful moment when the whole school were praying together alongside Year 6 and using the power of prayer to make a difference. One of our many proud moments was when the Year 3 girls reached the Essex Finals for cross country. The smiles on their faces when we told them the news was priceless! The moment that made me smile the most was when Year 4 were rapping to learn about perimeter and seeing Mr Overton-Smith with his funky paper glasses! After such a busy half term it is now time to rest for a week and enjoy time with your families and friends. Please can I remind you all to stay safe over the next few weeks as many of you may be taking children out to see fireworks displays or knocking on peoples houses hoping to collect as many sweets as possible. Enjoy yourselves, stay safe and I look forward to seeing you all back after the half term break!

READING LIKE OLYMPIANS RACE CHALLENGEOur Reading Like Olympians reading challenge has got off to a fantastic start this year! Thank you to all those of you who are supporting the children by encouraging them to read on a daily basis.
It would be great if the children could maintain these good reading habits over the half-term. To encourage the children to keep up with their ‘daily reads’ over the holiday period, we will be awarding bonus marks! For each daily read (with a parent’s comment noted in a child’s yellow Reading Record book) we will be awarding triple points (three ticks) on their race chart.Children continue to be very excited about the prospect of reading regularly and moving along in the reading race – many are getting closer to completing their first race and winning our bronze award! Many thanks for your ongoing support in enabling the children to read and enjoy books regularly at home.
Science ClubThe children in Science Club have been having a
great time designing and making a child size discus.
They were challenged to make their design fit their
hand and weigh exactly 500g. The choice of
materials was up to them but their final designs
used clay, playdoh and water to create the shape
and weight needed, with varying degrees of
success!Sadly, the playdoh crumbled and the water balloon
version burst, so the most effective version turned
out to be the one modelled with clay. It is fair to say
that throwing technique left a lot to be desired! Lots
of fun was had though as we explored scientific
principles behind the choice of materials.

Year 3 Storytelling
On Wednesday the Year 3 children were lucky enough to listen to Hannah tell them a
magical story set in Southend, many, many, many, many years ago. Using the power of
imagination we were transported to the grounds of The Priory, where a mysterious
creature lurked, breathing fire and destroying the forest. A brave young knight set about
to save the people of Southend. Some may say folklore, some may say just a fairy story,
but have you ever wondered why the sand on the beaches of Southend is grey and oozy.
Maybe the mysterious Bastille creature, its head like a cockerel, its body covered in
scales and its legs covered in yellow feathers and breathing out fire really was real. Who
knows, do parts of this creature still live beneath the Pier?
Bike ShedsThis term we have had many bikes and scooters being used to come to school which is fantastic! However the children seem to be utilising only the playground bike shed and it is starting to become unsafe. After half term we are asking all children riding bikes to school to use the bike sheds outside the junior block on Windermere Road. If your child is using a scooter, they can continue to use the bike shed on the playground.

Notices
School Winter UniformAn email reminder was sent to all our families in regards to the correct uniform that should be worn by all our pupils. In particular, we would like to highlight that BOOTS (including ankle boots) are not part of the school uniform. Earrings are also not permitted by girls or boys and must be removed. Sacred Heart expects a high standard of dress code from our children that makes them feel proud to be part of the school community. We would also remind everyone to ensure that ALL uniform is clearly labelled so that we can reunite any lost property. Thank you for your continued support.
Smoking Outside the School GateWe would like to kindly ask parents to refrain from smoking in close proximity to the school grounds. This is for the good of our children and younger siblings.
School Admission ConsultationsParents and carers are advised that a number of schools/trusts in the area are consulting on their admission arrangements for 2021/22 as required by law. Information is available on respective school webpages and also on Southend-on-Sea Borough Council website https://www.southend.gov.uk/info/200176/school_admissions/777/admission_policies
Appointments in School Time
We are having a considerable number of parents coming in from
2.30pm onwards for optician, dentist etc. Whilst we appreciate
not all appointments can be made out of school time, where
appointments are in school time or they need to leave early,
letters or booking cards should be shared with the office to
confirm all appointments.
