This week in nursery class we have been learning about

bugs so we decided to go on a mini beast hunt in the

mud kitchen!

We were all armed with our special bug hunting
equipment and dug high and low to find different
creatures before heading back to class and completing
a checklist of the things we had found. See the pictures
to find out our discoveries! Press here for more.





Reception Class had another session with
one of our lovely mums who taught the
children how to tap dance. They are growing
in confidence and thoroughly enjoying the
sessions so a massive thank you to Ulrike for
giving up her time to further enrich the
childrens experiences. Heres a selection of
photos from their latest session. Press here
for more.

Sports Day was the highlight of the week and indeed one of
the many in our school calendar. It was the perfect setting at
Shoreditch Park with wonderful weather and a fantastic
atmosphere.

So on Wednesday 17
th
June, the school headed off up the road
to Shoreditch Park and took part in a variety of races, field
events and of course the Parents races.

All children had the opportunity to throw the shot-put,
javelin, discus and water balloons, to race short and long
distance and relay, and to cheer on their teams.

The children were placed into teams of Red, Blue and
Yellow and wore predominantly those colours. For
each event, they could either win a 1
st
, 2
nd
or 3
rd
place
sticker, and all the while, the adults were on the
lookout for which children would be worthy of the
coveted medals for showing exceptional
sportspersonship.

As the Early Years children did their races, the older
children were on the field hurling javelins, shot-puts
and discuses and then they swapped. Once all the
events were complete, it was time for the parents
to race. It was a legendary battle resulting in near-
carnage in the mens race. Congratulations to Susan
and Ross for pipping their opponents to the post! I
have an unmissable video of sports day including
these races (in slow motion for extra drama) on the
blog. Press here to view.
The results:

3
rd
226 points Blue Team
2
nd
227 points Yellow Team
1
st
228 points Red Team

So congratulations to Red Team, but well done
to everyone. As you can see, it couldnt have
been a closer competition.

Thank you to everyone for coming along, the
staff who helped put the event together and, of
course, to the children for helping to create a
wonderful atmosphere. There were no bad
losers, gloating winners or bad tempers. All
children displayed the very best of what we
really appreciate about Rosemary Works
children.


It was all about Sports Day today in Celebration Assembly. Children received
certificates for trying their best, never giving up, cheering on their team and
congratulating their friends regardless of which team they were in and for that, they
deserved this accolade.
Instead of prizes this week, we gave out eight medals for one girl and one boy from
each class for going just that little extra mile to demonstrate sportspersonship. Even
though all the children were excellent during Sports Day, these children were
amazing. Press here to see all the photos from Sports Day on our Facebook page
(you dont need to befriend us to see them, nor have a Facebook account, but if
you wish to like the photos or follow Rosemary Works, that would be great!).
The Musician of the Week went to Violet in Nursery Class. Paul said that she is doing
so well with the preparations for the summer show. She has made a huge
improvement throughout the year and her singing voice has really come along! It
was fantastic to hear her 'belting it out' whilst practising the 'Alice in Wonderland'
songs this week. She is always so well behaved in lessons and kind to her friends.
Keep it up and well done you!

Dress Up and Dance
Today we hosted Dress up and Dance for Macmillan Cancer Research. The children came to school in
either sporty or dance clothes and we all had a go at the set dances that Macmillan supplied. Year 1
and 2 particularly enjoyed the routines as youll see in the video here. Thank you for all your
contributions. Next week I will reveal how much money we raised for this excellent cause. At the time
of press, we hadnt run the fruit smoothie and fruit kebab stall, so watch this space to see how that
went!
