“Each time we face our fear, we gain

strength, courage and confidence in

the doing.”

Theodore Roosevelt 26TH U.S. PRESIDENT

Value of the Week

Confidence

Thank you for all of your support this week as we all

come to terms with this new way of doing things. It has

been such a team effort by so many people: children, teachers and parents have all worked so hard together

and I am incredibly grateful.

Thank you very much for all of the photos and videos

that have been sent in this week. My personal favourite

was the younger brother joining in with big sister's ballet lesson but Finn practising his touch typing by

working in my science lesson with a wooly hat over his face comes a close second! Keep them coming in.

We look forward to distilling everyone’s feedback on

Moor Park @home so far so that we can make things

even better. Please remember that we are here to help so do get in contact if you have any ideas or thoughts at

any stage.

I hope that you all enjoy a restful weekend with your

families. Stay healthy.

Happy 100th Birthday Captain Tom Moore

HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY CAPTAIN TOM

Happy Birthday! Captain Tom Moore You’re worth every penny of the £30M you raised.

From JACK Atkinson, a schoolboy, who thinks you’re a legend!

‘

From the Pupils and

Staff atThree Cheers

and a big Happy Birthday

Thank you To those who managed to put

together a card to celebrate Cpn Tom Moore’s 100th Birthday. Just

amazing how many of you came together.

Did you know?That on the school intranet, other than your work there are many

more resources to keep you

entertained? For example, every week a new digital copy of The

Week is uploaded and it is all yours to view. There are currently 4 back

copies with a new copy going up at

the beginning of each week. There are audio stories to listen to. A

touch typing package. Mr Harrhy is currently recording mini cricket

skills lessons. We are constantly

adding new resources. Keep an eye on it!

SaturdaysWe know that the week is long, but

there are so many activities planned for your Saturdays. They

are being updated weekly, but can be done at any time. There are a

lot of house points on offer, all that

we ask is that you share what you have done. Mr (Sports) Martin has

set a challenge this week, as has Mr Bloomfield. Emily has recorded a

Musical Theatre dance

challenge….There is a tour of the British Museum and quite a few

other new activities. You can do them in any order, so if you missed

last week, they are still there to do!

Link to all activities is here: https://www.moorpark.org.uk/lockdown-

PhotographsWe are very active on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter just now and

need all of the help that we can

get! Send in what you are doing, at school and at home. Show us what

you have made, what skills you have

learned. Particularly, please send us pictures of ballet and music lessons

- we love to see how you are getting on! [email protected]

Touch Typing for allWhilst stuck at home why not gain

a new and very useful skill? - Touch Typing - a life-changing expertise!

Everyone is now enrolled in Typing

Club at moorpark.typingclub.com

Your login name and password are

the same as the network at school

e.g. Joe Bloggs login is blog.j and his

password is jb. We should have

some really impressive typers by the end of this!

And don’t forget to cover your hands with a tea towel (or in Finn’s

case a woolly hat!)

Examples of poetry written during

Moor Park @Home this week

during year 6 English lessons.

Calling Year 8 and their Parents!It is that time of year when we start to put together your

Leavers’ Book! Sad times I know, but we have all got happy memories of your time here at Moor Park. The process is web

based, so you can do it at home, but in the mean time I need

you to look out as many photographs as you can of your time here. This is YOUR BOOK. So you will get as much out of it

as you put in. From your first day, sports day, in and out of

uniform, netball matches, rugby matches, birthday parties.

Individual shots, groups shots with your friends…. let’s put it

all together! Start to build a folder of digital images on your desktop. When the book is formatted, I’ll give you each a login

and you can start to populate it. I’m hoping to get the details back early next week. Find about 5 images of yourself for your

profile page, and as many other images as possible to fill the

book. Shout if you have any questions. [email protected]. Best wishes. Becky.
