Westfield Primary School

Year 2 had a great day out to the Somerset Museum of Rural Life today where they learnt about the farming year, how to get flour from wheat and made some fresh butter to take home. We were very proud of their science knowledge and their behaviour. Well done Year 2.

YEAR 6 CAMP - IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Ahead of our arrival back to school tomorrow, we wanted to give you some important information to ensure a safe collection.

Firstly, we plan to arrive at 3pm whereby the children will be taken to the school hall, along with their bags. Once the children are all accounted for, we will invite the parents / carers into the hall to collect their children from the car park. A reminder, parents / carers will not be able to park in the car park, unless agreed with the school office.
If your child has medication, please collect this from Mrs Smith and Miss Offer as there is a form which needs to be signed.
All sweets and snacks, collected during an amnesty, will be returned to the children prior to our arrival.
All remaining money has already been returned to them.
Our assembly will be held on Thursday 5th October at 2:15pm where we will share lots of memories of our fantastic week! We look forward to seeing you all there.
Any questions, please contact Miss Offer or Mrs Rich.

Year 4 learnt how to be engineers and build properties that are protected against flooding.

Both Year 5 and Year 3 were lifted off as astronauts into space using state of the art VR technology!

Dr Samantha Organ from the University of the West of England inspired our Year 2s to construct the tallest structures from firstly Lego, then paper. She is also pictured with the winning team - go Girl Power!

Your child's SATS results will be coming home today in a sealed envelope. Please look out for this in their bags! If you have any questions, please contact your child's class teacher.
The children should all be very proud of their efforts as they worked incredibly hard - well done Year 6!

Afternoon Sports Day (Years 1, 2 and 3)
Dear All
We have looked at the weather forecast for this afternoon and decided to start the sports day events 15 minutes earlier than planned. Hopefully we will then miss the worst of the rain but please bring an umbrella just in case!
After the sports events you will be able to collect your child(ren) from their classes to go home - including older siblings.
Many thanks Simon Mills
