We have been set a bingo mission to spread Christmas kindness across Norton Infant School.
We started by writing all the beautiful things we could think of about our school. We sneaked into Miss Tunney’s office and stuck them all over her door.
Keep an eye out for our next Christmassy act of kindness 🎁

Hello parents/carers,
As the Autumn term draws to a close and we all begin to wind down for the Christmas break, we would like to invite parents and carers into school during the first two weeks back in January to attend your child’s student-led conference (SLC).
In this 10 minute session, your child, accompanied by their teacher or crew leader, will walk you through their journey so far. Children will talk about their achievements, challenges and next steps as well as showing you their favourite pieces of beautiful work.
Days are Monday (9th), Tuesday (10th), Wednesday (11th) There are morning, afternoon and evening slots available.
Please complete the form below by the deadline which is Thursday 15th December at 5pm.
Many thanks,
Key Stage One Team xx
This week in Class 2 we have been trying out a new strategy to help us ‘think, pair and share’. The children start this activity by standing back to back with a friend. I then ask them a question such as ‘how are you feeling this morning?’, ‘what are you looking forward to doing at school today?’ or ‘can you remember the tricky word we learned in phonics this week?’. The children have some silent thinking time and then when they hear me say ‘face to face’ they jump round and share their answers with their partner.
The children have engaged in this activity really well and it has had an impact on their ability to speak aloud about their thinking and listen carefully to others. Well done Class 2, you are working hard and getting smart!
Today we all enjoyed eating Christmas lunch together in the dining hall. There were lots of happy faces and full tummies 😋 Miss Tunney and Mrs Ponsonby were also in the festive spirit serving everyone their dessert.
What a fun morning testing catapult, looking at the materials, making predictions and observations.
Class 1 enjoyed their first celebration of learning this week. They have worked so hard and each got to take home a very special bear 🐻
I am so proud of the writing and creativity I am seeing in class 1 at the moment…
It was so exciting for Class Two to take part in their first ever Celebration of Learning with their parents and grandparents this week. The children have worked incredibly hard answering this term’s expedition question ‘How Can We Care for the Bears?’. Why not check out our expedition website here where you can find out all about what we got up to…

We are so proud of our final product and hope you enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed creating it.
The children certainly deserved to take home their own teddy bear as a lasting legacy of their hard work this term. Well done Class Two, I can’t wait to see what the next expedition has in store!
