On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week, the whole school took part in Eat Well workshops with Lydia. Children learned about the nutrition in foods and how to make sensible choices with food.

KS2 children were shocked to learn about how much sugar is in foods we regularly eat and KS1 children enjoyed tasking new foods.

Thanks to the hard work of our Amazing Friends of St Lawrence PTA, we have been able to invest over £3000 in a new reading scheme for KS2 pupils, building on the scheme we already have in place in KS1.

Children have been excited to take home their first books from the collection and we are delighted that every child will be able to access these brand new books as they move through the school.

On Tuesday, Class 3 and 4 took part in first aid training as part of their PSHE work on ‘Healthy Me’. The children learnt how to dress wounds and use bandages and slings as well as completing basic CPR training and learning how to deal with choking.

Class 4 have been writing some wonderful newspaper reports about the evacuation of children from towns and cities in 1939.
