Rights-Respecting Schools Assembly -article 29
Date: 8th May 2019 @ 8:54am
The UNCRC article for this half term is article 29 - 'Education must develop every child's personalities, abilities and talents to the full. It must develop a child's respect for human rights, their parents, other cultures and the environment.' Three members of our Rights-Respecting Steering Group planned and led an assembly on looking after the environment: plastic pollution across the world; reducing/reusing/recycling; looking after our school environment. During the assembly, the children shared some ideas of things they, and the Eco Team, will be doing over this term to help take care of our local environment and also support the wider global campaign.

RRS visit to Sherdley Primary School
Date: 14th Apr 2019 @ 10:15am
After the success of their presentation at the Junior Democracy Debate at the Town Hall last term, our Rights-Respecting Steering Group were invited to Sherdley Primary School in Sutton to lead an assembly. Sherdley Primary School are on their way to achieving the Silver accreditation of the RRSA and wanted our ambassadors to share what they have learned and what we have done at Lyme to embed the rights of the child into our school ethos. The four members of our RR Steering Group who lead the assembly did so with confidence and enthusiasm - yet again being excellent representatives for Lyme and outstanding amabassadors for children's rights.

On Thursday, our hard working Eco-Team spent the afternoon digging over the planters on the school field and planting sunflowers, beans and sowing wildflower seeds with the help of Scott, Lyme Park's Ranger.
Then they had the hard job of choosing the winning native animal drawing from each class. From the class winners, Scott will choose an overall design to include on signs in Lyme Park. Watch this space for the winning art work!

Our Rights Respecting Schools Ambassadors had a difficult job judging this year's Easter egg decorating competition on Friday. We were all amazed by the effort the children had put in to demonstrate one of the articles from the UN rights of the child.

In this week's Eco-Council meeting, Scott (Lyme Park's Ranger) came to talk to us about ideas to develop the park area. He asked the group to look at a map of the park and think about how we can help him to improve the signs and encourage more people to visit.
In the Spring/Summer term he will be asking the Eco-Council to lead a competition across school to design some art work for the new signs.

Some of our Year 3 children have been taking part in Numbers Count since the Spring Term.
Numbers Count is a fun and exciting way for children to make accelerated progress in their Maths learning. Each child on their Numbers Count journey receives 1 to 1 direct teaching for 40 sessions - 3 sessions per week.
Today we have celebrated the achievements of the children who have been participating in Numbers Count with our SENCo - Miss Burns. Some of the children's family members came to support them and to see how far they have progressed. It was a wonderful morning to see the children's achievements and for the children to share their experiences while celebrating their success
