Week 4
Hello!We are more than just a
school, we are a community!Each week we will be posting messages from
people in and around the Bracknell area to see what our local friends, family and
neighbours have been up to to keep spirits high!

Dear Parents/CarersIt has been a very busy week for us this week as we continue to virtually run the
school and develop new ways to keep up our communication with you. Over the past few days 100 staff have been filming messages for our families and Miss Ioannidis has had many late nights across the week putting this amazing
production together. Keep an eye out this afternoon for where this will be published this evening. Lots of staff have shown that they have no issue with totally
humiliating themselves in order to make you smile and I can honestly say that as I am one of them!
In addition, we have also been starting to film our assemblies, the first two will go out next week led by myself and Mr O'Brien. The following week SLT will run year group assemblies followed by the Heads of Year and then the Heads of House. We
hope that as many of you as possible will access these in order to stay even more in touch.

Tutor Reading Programme﹡ Terrific daily tutor reading, following the tutor reading programme.
It has been really rewarding to see so many students continue to engage in this valuable time together, providing our students with the opportunity to acquire new vocabulary and to inspire and encourage reading.
﹡ Many house points have been awarded to students for tutor reading and there is also a bit of friendly competition going on. Tutors groups who read the most each day are rewarded with an extra house point and are also in with a chance at the end of the week to be awarded bonus House points as a tutor group for those who read the most all week.

During this uncertain time and the unknown we need to find ways of how we can all stay mentally well.
❖Find a new normal – Try and get a new daily routine, it doesn’t have to be overly structured, but it will help to have a little bit of calm and consistency.
❖Exercise and Good Self Care – This is the most important thing and your physical well being. Exercise - it doesn’t have to be hard, look after yourself and be kind to yourself and others.
❖Stay Connected – Keep in touch with family and friends.
❖Take time out from Coronavirus Worry – Set some time aside either to yourself or as a family, where you don’t watch the news, no social media and no talking about Coronavirus.
❖Name Your Worries – Recognise your worries, list them all down, work through them, try and change them or control them. You might not be able to change them, but that is ok, if you can, try and talk to someone about them.
❖Make a positive plan for the future -This doesn’t have to be anything big, it can be quite a simple thing.
❖Self Soothe-Try and do some relaxation and breathing exercise, use calming strategies that work for you.
DON’T BE HARD ON YOURSELF - DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU

These are some strategies that might be useful if feeling anxious or worried, or even if you start to feel angry. Practise any of the and see if any work for you.
❖Massaging your hands - This is good especially at the moment as we are all constantly washing our hands, so after washing them maybe use some hand cream or lotion and really massage in well and don’t think about anything else. This can be self-calming and self-soothing.
❖Close your Eyes and Look inwards - Take a deep breath and sit still for 30 seconds or longer, this is really good if you feel your anxiety levels rising.
❖Give yourself a hug - Hugging always helps to make you feel safe and can help to reassure you, if you don’t like anyone giving you a hug, try to hug yourself for 10 seconds or longer.
❖Box Breathing - Square Breathing, again this can help with anxiety❖Breathe in for the count of 4❖Hold for the count of 4❖Breathe out for the count of 4❖Hold for the count of 4
Remember do what works for you and if you can practise, one of these may help.

Mrs Lewis - TwitchingWhat an absolute delight it was to be told there was a bird’s nest in the garden!
With extra care, I went to see this with my own eyes – and there they were, so delicate and small. I felt so lucky to be able to see one of nature’s gifts and felt terribly excited about watching them grow.
After some research, I found that they were a family of Blackbirds and went to visit them three tines a day. It was absolutely amazing to see them grow from little pink things, to being covered in fluff, to feathers coming through, looking rather fierce, to them plumping up and moving around.
Until…that day they became fledglings and left the nest.
It was sad to see the nest empty but I knew that they were now starting to explore the world’s wonders themselves and were on their way to being the independent birds they needed to be!
I often see blackbirds darting around the garden, swooping here and there and wonder to myself….Is that them?

Mrs BradleyThis week myself and my three girls were tasked (by my veterinary nurse sister) to babysit and bottle feed two orphaned 10 day old kittens.
Obviously my girls were super excited for this, I on the other hand had "new born baby feeding schedule" spring to mind.
Feeding via a syringe and tiny teat just 5ml of kitten milk every 2 hours. We had to administer the milk extremely carefully as the kittens don't have a gag reflex, this means we could flood their lungs with milk.
After the 1st feed I felt more comfortable with the administration of milk, we then had to make them pee/poo with damp cotton wool to replicate what the mother would normally do.
Safe to say these two kittens are the cutest and smallest things I've ever seen. Their head is about the size of a ping pong ball and they fit in the palm of your hand easily.
My husband is now being spammed with photos and messages by our children about the kittens, in an attempt to convince him to let us keep one. We already have a the equivalent of a pet zoo at home with 2 cats, 2 hamsters, a dog and a tortoise!
I will update you on the kittens again as, thanks to the girls, we are looking after them once or twice a week while my sister is on shift at the vets.
Enjoy the photos!

Surviving family life under lockdown
Family life has undergone a major upheaval over the past month or so, with households suddenly thrown together night and day, without the respite of work or school.
Instead of the average two to three hours a day spent together, families are having to adjust to life in lockdown with no escape from each other. But is this a trial to be endured or an opportunity to be grasped?
The challenges for us all are enormous, but the way we face them can shape the outcome and bring positive results. Here are some suggestions for surviving family life in lockdown.

Where can your child get mental health support online during lockdown?
As the lockdown is expected to continue for at least another couple of weeks, parents may be concerned about the effect it will have on their child’s mental health – whether or not they have experienced problems before.
Research from YoungMinds suggests that 32 per cent of young people with a history of mental health problems felt that the pandemic had made their mental health much worse, and 51 per cent said that it had made it a bit worse.
Find out more about how you can continue to support your child’s emotional wellbeing during this time of uncertainty.

Video chatting: a guide for parents and carers
Hands up if you’ve used Zoom, FaceTime, Houseparty, Skype or WhatsApp to stay in touch with family and friends since COVID-19 restrictions began? That’ll be most of you, then – and the same is probably true of your children.
Video chat can be a great way for young people to feel close to their friends during this unsettling time, so long as they’re having a positive experience when using it.
Here’s how to help children of different ages get the most from their video chatting experiences.

Don’t Quit by Edgar A. Guest
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't quit.
Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a fair and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out -
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit. 40
Suggested by Mrs Cresswell : Copyright © Edgar A. Guest
Life is strange with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.

1000 mile PerspectiveAs we are a very multicultural, multilingual and multicoloured school society we thought this would give an insight into cultural differences - hence the 1000 mile perspective - as the world seen from the perspective of someone brought up 1000 miles away from the place they are looking at and they are in.
There's a subtle thing. Involving movement, change of place, perhaps permanently, with a little bit of fear behind it. Fear of new, unknown very often suppressed by curiosity and necessity. Well... whatever the reason, there's always a factor influencing every decision made. Mentality. The characteristic way of thinking. We have it all. Chiselled by generations of footsteps. And yet, in uncertain times comes to one and only - hope for a better future. As nothing matters more. Unites us all and puts aside all animosities, colours, languages, countries and continents.We are in it together.But the approach may differ?

Brilliant ClubJoshua Rudge"The HICs (High Income Countries) should be helping out the less fortunate LICs (Low Income Countries) organise migration as they are human beings as well and have the same rights to a good lifestyle as HICs do. AS HICs have landed the LICs in their situation, the HICs should therefore be trying to help the LICs as much as possible to stop them being eradicated because of HICs’ actions. Many LIC countries could be flooded and underwater if HICs continue to be ignorant of the damage they are doing to the LICs. Because of this, the HICs should be providing either resources to help the LICs defend themselves and develop their homes from the natural threats or evacuate them if major flooding and the threat of the land becoming underwater is a reality."
We are so very Proud of you all, well done!
58
Brilliant ClubEdward Bumpass"As is the case with all matters in society, the views people have on climate migration differ largely. Some people take the Maximalist School of viewing it, whilst others are more suited to the Minimalist School way of thinking. Firstly, the Maximalist School. This opinion shows the problems that stem from climate migration as an apocalyptic affair which is going to plunge the world into disaster. Articles written in this way are designed to shock and even worry the reader by using statistics with extremely big, almost unbelievable numbers. A large proportion of these figures feature ridiculous numbers (of people, money etc) into the billions; these will mentally affect us."

Sustainability during lockdown - Food waste by Dr Robson
﹡ We throw away a third of ALL the food we produce - that’s 1.3 billion tonnes every year.
﹡ Most of us have a bit more time during lockdown to prepare and cook delicious meals, and to think about the food that we are consuming.
﹡ Simply just buying what we need and what we know we will eat, as well as freezing food to make it last longer, could make a massive difference to food waste numbers and improving sustainability.
﹡ It’s also the perfect time of year to be planting seeds. You don’t need much space to grow plants like herbs, just a windowsill!

"In Desert and Wilderness" is filled with adventure and is a coming-of-age novel about two friends. A Polish boy, age 14, and an English girl, age 8, are kidnapped by rebels during Mahdi's rebellion in Sudan.
An outstanding story and entertaining, intelligent plot show a simple journey through Africa. Historically accurate and with truly impossible to predict storms of desert, the revenge of hunger and threatening jungles filled with vicious animals and warring tribes.
Sienkiewicz successfully creates the beauty of the African landscape, scenery known as "the dark continent" - a land of unknown, primordial backdrops, tall deep jungles, uncharted rivers and majestic mountains.
It is a brilliant book that remains a must-read literary treasure.

Recipe: Quick and Easy Lahmajun (Turkish meat pizza)
Ingredients:You need half a kilo of lamb mince, one small onion, two tomatoes, parsley, one small red pepper, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, paprika, black pepper, chilli if you want, juice of half a lemon, 3 tablespoons of tomato paste and meat seasoning. Our base will be tortilla wraps ( I used the small ones but large is fine) normally it is made with homemade dough.
Method:1. In a food processor add all ingredients except the meat and mix well, then add them to the meat
and mix well. If you have time leave it for half an hour. 2. On the tortilla wraps spread a tiny bit of tomato paste and spread our mixture evenly on the bread
as shown in the picture and bake in a preheated oven (200) till the meat is done - normally it takes less than 5 minutes. Place them on a tray and cover with a tea towel until you finish baking.
3. Serve with any greens you like with squeeze of lemon.4. All done, Bon appetit.

I live in Bracknell and have 2 boys and a girl. In my spare time you will find me out and about in the community helping Thames VPolice on the community speed watch campaign. I also run a community litter picking group which often has lots of children from Crown Wood school helping to keep the local area clean.
