Headteacher's Welcome I hope you all had a lovely break over half term and time for some time with your families. The children have come back to school well rested and ready for learning which is great - we even saw the sunshine in the playground a few times which has been lovely! Its a short but busy term so please make sure you check the calendar for all the key dates. Next Week is World Book Day - Dress up as a Book Character! Children are invited to come dressed as their favourite book character and may bring their favourite book in. The children will be doing a range of Book themed activities throughout the day ending with stories and hot chocolate.

Sponsored Pancake Toss Today! We’ve had a great morning this morning supporting the children with their sponsored pancake toss. The children ran with their frying pan and pancake up the hall and back again, tossing their pancake at the end of their run, then passing it to their next team member until the time was up. They all had such a good time, the hall was full of happy faces and lots of cheering and encouragement from their classmates. Altogether the whole school managed to toss an amazing 862 pancakes! Such a lot of pancakes! Well done everyone.
We have had such an amazing response to our request for sponsorship and so far have raised over £2,300 which is absolutely fabulous. Thank you so much. This means we will be able to sponsor a children’s hospital lion cub. Our school will be able to design, paint and give a forever home to one of the cubs. The sculptures will go on display as part of a huge, free public art trail which is celebrating 150 years of Sheffield Children’s Hospital and raising vital funds to create a hospital environment built with children in mind – for today, for tomorrow and for the next 150 years. At the end of the trail, the lion and lioness sculptures will head to auction, and our cub sculpture will be returned to our school to stay and be looked after by everyone in the school. This is so exciting, thank you once again.
We're just finalising the following events to take place after half term:
Thurs 5th Mar - World Book Day - Book and cake sales plus children invited to dress as their favourite book character.
Thurs 26th Mar - Easter Egg Hunt - Children challenged to solve the clues and find the prize during school time!
Thurs 14th May - School Disco - Sparky Marky booked and more info to follow nearer the time!
In the meantime, we hope you enjoy Pancake Day and have a lovely half term!
If you’re not on the PTA WhatsApp group and could help with any of the events, please do get in touch via email - nethergreeninfantschoolpta@gmail.com.
