You will be very happy to know that there is no home learning for this week. Yay, I here you say! This week we would like you to spend time doing the things you love or to try something new. Get outside, get creative, get baking, relax or anything else you fancy doing. We have attached a grid with a few ideas, just in case you get stuck. We would love to see photos of what you get up too and we will put a selection of these up on the blog at the end of the half term week.
We are missing you all so much and are really proud of everything you have done so far. Keep smiling and stay positive!
Some of you will know Mr Kingham from coming to sports competitions outside of school. He is our Coventry West School Games organiser. Him alongside other regional SGO’s have launched 4 weeks of virtual competitions. You will complete challenges and submit your results, in friendly competition with other children around Coventry. There are prizes and certificates for yourself and an opportunity to win some PE equipment for school the more children that participate. I can’t wait to hear from Mr Kingham how many of our Coundon pupils have been stepping up to the challenge! You can access full launch details from his twitter @SGOCoventryWest each Monday morning and that week’s competition will close on Friday.
This week’s virtual competition is Cricket skills.
Everything you need to know and the details of the challenge can be found in the document below. Good luck! Miss Perrett 🙂
Our families now have access to #realPEathome which is perfect to support you to be active while having fun at home.
Real PE at home includes an online programme which supports families to be active, play and learn together. For children in Key Stage 2, there are carefully selected personal best challenges, skills and games designed for the home and garden.
There are so many benefits to being active, not only to our physical well-being but also to our emotional and mental health, especially in such testing times for all of us. We hope that the ideas help support you and your family to stay fit and healthy in the coming months. Here are the details to access real PE at home:
Wow, the start of another week!! It was great chatting to some of you and answering all of your questions, last week, on Microsoft Teams.

When you sign in for the first time you will be asked to change your password. Make this unique and something that you will be able to remember. (Note: Always keep y9our password secret.)
Once you have signed in you will see a welcome sign. You will now be able to send an email to our class teacher using one of the email addresses below. The settings on your account means that you can only send emails to your teachers and only receive emails from your teachers.
You will be able to access a wide range of on-line applications, such as Word, PowerPoint and Excel. These may help you to complete future work.
You will also be able to see a symbol that says ‘Teams’. This is the application that we can use to help keep in touch. You can log in and post messages to the groups/channels/teams that you have been assigned to.
A teacher from the Year 4 team will be available between 10-12pm each day, starting from Wednesday 13th May.
Welcome to another week of home learning. We hope you are safe and well. We are really
missing you and can’t believe it has been so long since we have seen all of
your wonderful, smiling faces. Hopefully,
we will be seeing you all again soon.
There are times that you may be feeling fed up, anxious or even bored. But please try to stay positive and remember that we are doing this to keep ourselves safe and healthy. We know that you are working hard but remember to enjoy time with your family, make memories and have fun! Grownups, we know that home schooling can be difficult but you are doing a fab job!
