Lionel Primary School
Working together to provide an educational environment that inspires, challenges and nurtures each child.
RED NOSE DAY has brought us together through laughter, showing just how powerful humour can be.
Together, we’ve raised a whopping grand total of £858.15 for Comic Relief and have smashed our School target of £500.
From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for getting your Noses On, donating and fundraising.
TRANSPORT FOR LONDON-Virtual workshop Year 6- Keeping safe
On Tuesday, Year 6 children attended a virtual session with Transport for London learning how to stay safe when out and about. As they will soon be travelling to their new secondary schools on their own, it is important that they understand the hazards of travelling around on foot, bicycle and public transport.
Here’s what our Year 6s had to say about the session:
"I never knew before the workshop that you had to
stand the length of your body plus one step away
from the curb when waiting for a bus or tube."
"I can’t wait to get my Zip card to travel to school with!"
"It was good to be reminded that I shouldn’t stare at my
phone when walking to school."
"We were told where it’s safe to sit on a bus and
that we shouldn’t stand near the driver."
On Friday at Lionel we have proudly celebrated the WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY. The children came to school wearing bright, happy clothes. In the afternoon, they have participated in a range of engaging activities and classroom discussion, where they learnt how to look after their own emotional well-being.
In Year 1, children explored how feelings can change and also differ from others in the same situation.
In Year 2, children identified how feelings can get stronger and how to manage these.
In Year 3, the importance of expressing feelings and emotions was explored.
In Year 4, children focused on managing their feelings and emotions in different situations.
In Year 5, the children learnt about mental health; what it means and how they can take care of it.
Lastly, Year 6, they explored how feelings and emotions are affected in changing, challenging or difficult times.
We would like to say a big thank you to all children for their amazing work!
Looking after our own mental health and well-being is extremely important, especially during difficult times.
Pop Up Book Hut: January 2020
Here at Lionel we are very excited about the arrival of our Pop-Up Book Hut from the London Children’s Book Project, a charity whose ambition is to put books into every home and to engage children and young people in choosing the books that appeal to them.
Today, a beautiful little green hut was delivered to school along with a donation of over 1000 new or ‘gently used’ books. Over the next few weeks, children will be invited to visit the hut with their teachers and their parents and carers (if you are able to do so) to choose their very own book. The book is for your child to keep, read and love.
Should your child finish their book before the end of this half term and wish to exchange it, they are welcome to do so. The hut will open at various points during the school day for your child to exchange.
This is a wonderful opportunity for all the children at Lionel to experience the excitement of choosing their own book and we would like to invite you to share this with them, if possible. Attached to this letter (and to be displayed on the hut) is a timetable showing mornings when each class will be able to visit the hut along with their parents/carers to choose a book. These sessions will run from 9.00am to 9.30am.
As we are such a big school, some classes will have already visited the hut before going with you, but we know that the children will still appreciate being able to show you the hut. They may use this opportunity to exchange their book, if they want to.
We hope that you and your children will share our excitement in this fantastic opportunity and we look forward to welcoming you to our Hut!
Happy 2020 and happy reading!
