Bures C.E. Primary School Newsletter Contact us: 01787 227446 [email protected]ffolk.sch.uk Date: 24th May 2019 Big Queson of the Week “Do you think that one day science will find a way to make people live forever? If so, do you think that that would be a good or a bad thing?” Explore, Believe, Shine Science Week—4th—7th June 2019 The week after half term we will be celebrating all things scientific and technological in our Science Week. Mrs Bennie has been instrumental in organising things but all our teachers have worked hard to plan exciting challenges to develop the children’s skills in this crucial area of learning. Lots of the activities we are planning will be around the theme of food and sustainability. We are hugely grateful to Mrs Steel (a parent of one of our Year 4 pupils) who is going to let the children enjoy a cooking experience in her ‘Mac St. Kitchen’ van—we can’t wait to taste their delicacies! All classes have been growing vegetables to add to their various recipes; learning about the science of plants and thinking about how important plants are to our health and to creating a more sustainable food source worldwide. On Friday, a female workshop controller (Serena Depradine) and an apprentice technician (John Mills) from the BMW dealership my husband runs, will be visiting school in a BMW i8 (an electric plug-in hybrid sports car). The children will have a chance to find out about electric cars and the future of this technology. Our Year 5 and 6 children will also get the chance to ask some questions about what might help them access a career in the motor industry— having a female workshop controller is quite rare—we are hoping that talking to Serena might get our girls thinking about whether a career in the scientific or engineering world might be a good option for them! The i8 will still be at school at the end of the day if you’d like to come and have a look. Rockley Rocks! I hope you have been enjoying the regular ‘Tweets’ from our adventurers at Rockley as much as I have. We are looking forward to seeing them later today but are very glad that you, as their parents, will be taking them home with all their dirty washing and lack of sleep grumpiness!! I want to express my thanks to Ms Holtom, Mrs Bennie and Mr Ray for accompanying them—I know they have enjoyed it but it is a big responsibility and hard work! I would like to thank the children too who have been fabulous ambassadors for our school. Well done to all—I am sure you will be glad to have them back safe and sound.
