What an amazing show this evening! Children – you were outstanding. Better than Broadway! Thank you so much for working so hard – you are all so talented. A huge thank you to Miss Anderton who was the driving force behind this spectacular show.

A massive congratulations to our Lightning Sparks who have won the F1 Jaguar Challenge in no less than 4 categories. Wow! You have made Mrs Andrews and evryone at Victoria CP very proud – well done!

We celebrated Mrs Cragg’s birthday in school on Monday by selling sunflower seeds in memory of her cheery, beautiful personality. We would like to say a big thank you as together we have raised £220 for Nightingale House.

Our Junior Choir were lucky enough to be invited to sing at the NSPCC Conference today. The children sang beautifully and guess what…….. we met Esther Rantzen who established Childline 30 years ago.

 

Dear Parents

We have noticed that in the junior department we are very unhealthy when it comes to our snacks. In Victoria, children start making healthy habits in the infant classes as they are not allowed unhealthy snacks and we have decided that we should be carrying this through into our junior classes.

We know that crisps, chocolate and sweets contain too much salt and sugar; this in turn damages our bodies. We are growing and we want to grow up making healthy choices. After all healthy choices lead to healthy habits in later life. We want to be healthy adults.

As a result, we have decided that we are going to ban unhealthy snacks in our school after half term. We want to see healthy snacks on our playground, such as fruit, cereal bars (without chocolate!), yoghurts, water, milk, cheese pieces, cucumber etc.

We really hope that you support us and help us to make healthy choices.

Thank you,

The Healthy Schools Committee

Well, our F1 team have been incredibly busy designing, engineering and creating their Jaguar model for tomorrow’s F1 competition in Llandudno.

Well done to Lottie, Declan, Sohaib, Charlie, Vilas and Charlotte who have all had important roles in the creation of the Jaguar model.

Many thanks to Mrs Andrews for supporting the children throughout the process and a huge thanks to our sponsors – Saplings Nursery, Candy Craft and Lavender Nails and Beauty – we are very grateful for your sponsorship.

 

A sneak preview…..

We had a fantastic time at Cardiff. We learnt so much about our Welsh history, culture and heritage. The children were very well behaved and we had lots of comments about their excellent knowledge and enthusiasm during the trip. Da iawn blwyddyn 6!
