  • iPad Leasing - Year 3 and Year 4

    Fri 22 Nov 2013 Claire Withers

    Just a quick update to let you know where we are along this process.

     

    Mrs Boyes and myself are meeting with the iPad company this afternoon to agree our vision and investigate how we can promote e-safety whilst the children use them.

     

    We have been assured that delivery of the iPads will definitely be before Christmas.  I will be sending out a letter on Monday to give parents and carers updated information and ask for a confirmation of who is happy to sign up to the agreement.  I must have that back before the end of the week so I can place the order.

    Mr Owens, our new P.E. teaching assistant apprentice started in school last Monday.  In the short time he has been with us he has already had a huge impact in PE lessons and keeping our PE resources organised.  He has even joined in with the after school clubs and hopes to start some of his own after Christmas.  Watch this space!
  • International Partnership

    Tue 12 Nov 2013 Claire Withers

    Exciting times for our school!  We signed a partnership agreement through the Lions Raw charity which links our school up with a school in Curitiba in Brazil.  Over the coming year we will be making video clips of all the exciting activities which happen in school, and sharing them with the school in Curitiba.  They will be sharing information about the learning that happens in their school too!  School staff and pupils will also have the chance to Skype the other school and ask staff and pupils there questions about their school, face to face.  Children at Fordley are looking forward to sharing their school across the ocean to the other side of the world - very exciting!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - please see our Latest News page for information about the return to face to face learning on Monday 15th January
