Parents Aloud

       
         

Brize Norton Primary School are committed to providing activities for children and families. Supported by Burford Partnership Extended Services, we provide activity sessions for families on a Saturday each term

     

Bushcraft Survival Day   12th June  10 – 2pm

     

 

On Saturday 12th June, Brize Norton families spent the day at school taking part in the first Parents Aloud session. During the morning teams competed for 'dollars' carrying out a range of team challenges. These could be spent on a variety of fire making equipment. After lunch fires were made and then the fun began. Families had the opportunity to gut a fish or prepare an egg to be cooked inside a potato. Surprisingly most children wanted to gut the fish! Having cooked their food on their camp fires the children all tried what they had cooked. Much laughter was had during the day and all involved thoroughly enjoyed themselves. See more pictures here.

         

Parents Aloud Day 2 20th November 2010

     

On Saturday 20th November we held another exciting Parents Aloud family workshop. Our families travelled back in time to the Tudor era and learned all about the lives of the rich and poor. See more photographs here.

Support Resources at Home

     

 

Over the coming school year (2009/10) we will be developing our learning Platform to allow children and parents to access resource materials outside of school.

At home children currently have access to Education City, a web based resource to support their learning in maths and English. To find out your child's unique user name and password contact your child's class teacher.

During 2009/10 we will be introducing JuniorLibrarian.net, a web based library loaning service. This will allow children and parents to browse the school's library books at home, complete book reviews and search for information on authors and illustrators. Children will then be able to borrow books from our school library.
