School Scrapbook page

 

This is my Granddaughter's School Scrapbook page I have been asked to do.

Last year the Head charged me with putting together a school scrapbook to keep safe all the achievements the children and indeed the whole school have reached.

 

This page was dedicated to the Centenary Celebrations held in school to look back over the past ten decades.

 

 All the younger children were dressed in the present decade, and the older ones dressed in a decade  from when the school was first opened. They then all "buddied" up together to have a history lesson covering huge events such as the sinking of the Titanic, the launch of silent movies, to music of the '20s.

The Head said later, he thought this event had sparked a greater interest in history. The children were actually asking more about historic events which can only be a good thing. 

Past pupils were all invited to join in too, the oldest being 76 yrs old. 

Well done all who participated.

Bye for now.

School Children are urged to... Get on Your Bike

 

 

A Bikers Breakfast was held at the school to encourage children to use pedal power, instead of their parent's driving them there, to boost fitness.

The school has joined forces with Sustrans to show the benefits of using alternate healthier modes of travel.

Good Luck! 

School In the News... Attempts to boost funds for the deaf

 

 The children from my granddaughter's school, ages 4yr to 11 yrs, joined over 1.000 schools all over the country to take part in a fundraising sing-along to help the deaf!

They used singandsign to to boost the funds to aid every deaf person in the land. Also, this event, now in it's 3rd yr, is the holder of the Guinness Book of Records for the worlds largest singing and signing event in the world with 114,277 people taking part in 2012.
 

 

Well Done!

 

 

 

School Scrapbook Page

After the 2012 Olympics, my granddaughter's school decided to have the students try their hand (literally) at Volleyball.

I decided, after receiving the newspaper cutting, the background should be old newspaper print. After a long and exhausting search, I discovered this wonderful blog and lo and behold, she had the lovely freebie I have used on my page. "Thank you Inka for that."

 I copied and pasted the article onto an A4 page and added logo's, pics etc to fill up the empty parts to give it more interest. I also added the 3D Union flag and photo to the bottom to give some dimension.  These pages are A3 so are quite large to fill, however I think this looks fine now.

Bye for now.
