The whole school took on the challenge of ‘Brilliant Bingo’ last week completing lots of activities aimed at getting outside, working together, making connections and spending time with each other and therefore helping everyone to feel more empowered to look after themselves and others that little bit more. The theme of this years week was ACTION. All classes had a wonderful week of nature art, classroom discos, reading, mindful meditation, obstacle course building, having lessons outside and some even learnt to crochet!
Thank you to all the children and staff who dressed up for digits today and celebrated this year’s Number Day – a first for All Souls!
If you can. please help us to raise money for the NSPCC charity by making a donation through School Gateway.
We have already raised a fantastic £155!
Everything the NSPCC does protects children today and prevents abuse tomorrow. The NSPCC need our support more than ever. By raising money, we can help to fund their vital services such as Childline – the helpline that’s always there for children and young people whatever their problem or concern. On average, a child contacts Childline every 45 seconds.

We will be taking part in Dress up for Digits and having a fun day of maths activities. Children are asked to wear an item of clothing with a number on it (football shirt, cap, netball shirt or even a onesie!). Or get even more creative by dressing in a maths or numbers theme, design your own t-shirt, hat, or even become a human sized calculator or dice!
To help raise money for the NSPCC, we are asking for donations, and we’d love everyone in the school to take part in this special event. Please donate via GiftT. You can find the QR code below to help us support the NSPCC.

We’re really looking forward to all the fun of Number Day, and we really appreciate your support. All the money we raise at All Souls will make an enormous difference to children today and help the NSPCC be there for children tomorrow.
Many thanks,
Mrs Hartwell

No Pens Day!
We are taking part in No Pens Day! On Wednesday 27th November, All Souls is excited to be joining many other schools around the UK for a chatty day of fun and fundraising. This is where we need your help!
As part of No Pens Day, we are asking each pupil to bring an item of their choosing and tell their peers about it as part of the biggest-ever show and tell! This will give your child a chance to practise their communication skills, listen and talk to others in their class about something that matters to them. Here are some ideas to help your child prepare
- Point out some topics to help children connect with what they could talk about. For example: “You know a lot about space. Perhaps you could do a space-themed show and tell?”
- Examples – Give your children lots of ideas for what they might like to bring in or talk about. An object from home, a photograph or a favourite outfit! This could be about imaginary ideas as well. Perhaps they’d like to draw a picture to show – or chat about a favourite character, unicorn or sea monster.
- Name some people or places your children could tell the class about. For older children this could be someone inspirational they’ve learnt about at school. Their object could be a figure, a book, a postcard or a map.
-
We are also asking each pupil to bring in £1 for the children’s charity Speech and Language UK. These vital funds will help raise awareness about the 1 in 5 children in the UK with speech and language challenges. You can either give £1 to your child to bring in or click here to make a donation online. (Don’t forget to write our school in the donation message!) You can also donate by scanning this QR code:
Together, we can give every child struggling with talking and understanding words the skills they need to face the future with confidence.
Thank you for your continued support.
Well that is it…. School year 2023 – 2024 is over!
We wish our Year 6’s all the luck and love as you move on to new schools and bigger adventures. You presence will be missed!
Goodbye Miss Grantham -we wish you all the best on your Australian travels!
