Keep up to date with what's happening in school.
Nursery to Year 6 enjoyed taking part in 'No Pens Day' with a range of creative activities taking place across the day without a pen in sight! Some of the activities which took place included painting with our feet, cooking, chalk mark making, maths lessons outside, drama and sensory walks. The children thoroughly enjoyed the activities and having the opportunity to develop their oral language skills in fun, practical ways.
Christmas has officially arrived at Rockmount with an 'around the world' twist! Each year group has made decorations from around the globe.
This week, Reception had their outdoor learning session. After a discussion about fire safety, we noticed the wonderful sounds, sights, and smells of the natural surroundings. Reception had a lovely afternoon toasting marshmallows by the campfire.
Thanks to everyone who wrapped up well to join us in the school grounds to enjoy our latest Community Club session on Sunday. The sun eventually came out for a short time and we managed to complete lots of jobs, make some fantastic bird seed feeders and enjoy smores with hot chocolate around the fire pit.
Look out for the next session in December which will have a focus on seasonal crafts.
Rockmount have been learning about Remembrance Sunday and the Poppy Appeal. In support of the Royal British Legion, our school councillors worked very hard to promote selling poppies to raise money for the Poppy Appeal Charity.
We sold a range of items to raise funds for essential welfare work for our Service men and women, veterans, and their families. The money has been collected by the charity to be counted. A huge thank you to everyone who came to our Poppy sale on Friday.
