After a busy, but fun day, children (and teachers) are flagging now. Hot dogs were popular at lunch time and tonight’s Disco is the topic of conversation! Will Mr Cotton have the energy to ‘floss’ the night away? Keep posted to find out!

“Children slept very well, except for a couple of boys who tried to go for breakfast at 4am! Full English to start the day, weather is beautiful; perfect for a day of adventure”. 

News from Colomendy; Mr Cotton has just phoned with this morning’s update. All children are fine, they were asleep by 11pm last night and were up and out for breakfast by 7.30am. A full day of activities are planned, we will keep you posted as we receive more news.

Miss Topping has just sent a message to say that they are all having lots of fun on the Colomendy night-walk . Everyone will be back in the dorms for 9pm.  

Everyone has arrived safely at Colomendy. Mr Cotton said that the children have settled into their rooms and have enjoyed their activities before tea.

Wishing Miss Logan, Miss Stinson, Miss Farrell, Miss Gallagher and Mrs Garrity the very best of luck as they begin their Foundation Degree. The Governors have kindly agreed for our LSAs to access this amazing opportunity to study child development while working full time. Our staff are accessing higher education through Pen Green Research and the University of Hertfordshire in conjunction with  North Liverpool Teaching School. All the staff back in OLI would like to wish them well and congratulate them on taking this brave and exciting step back in to education. You are truly inspirational!! 

Today we are making a fuss of our Learning Support Assistants in celebration of National Teaching Assistant Day on Sunday. These valuable members of staff work tirelessly to support our children in so many ways, they are more than assistants to teachers they are educators, carers, ‘nurses’, friends, confidants, entertainers and so much more. On behalf of the staff, governors and parents THANK YOU for all you do! 

Congratulations to all our children from year 1 to Year 6, who took an English Speaking Board examination in the Summer!

All of the children passed with flying colours and received their award at Toxteth Annexe during the EMTAS Awards on Monday evening with their families.

We are all very proud of your achievements!

Adoremus 2018

 

Our term has started and we would like to welcome new children and staff to our school family. Reception and Nursery children have settled well and have enjoyed exploring their new environment. Our newly designed Two year old room was a hive of activity yesterday as the children investigated this exciting space. Across the school a number of new children have joined us, I’m sure you will welcome them to our school and the community.
After two INSET days our new staff were keen to meet their classes and get ‘stuck in’ to teaching. All have received a warm welcome from the school community and are enjoying these first few days of getting to know our wonderful children and families.
Thank you for your patience and co-operation as building works continue on the gym, we hope to be up and running as usual in the near future.
Remember to you can keep up to date by using our school APP and following us on Twitter @OliPrimary .

This week we have been finding out all about the importance of recycling. We have been finding out what types of materials can and cannot be recycled and where to take your recycled goods. We designed posters in class and also brought bottles in from home to make puppets out of. We have also had a whole school assembly with a man from Liverpool city council who told us all the rules and everything we need to know about recycling materials within our homes.

Competition winners from Years 3 – 6 had a fantastic half day at the Big Bang Fair today!
