Layla Barwise for neat work
Lily-Rie for working really hard all week
Dexter Harman for story writing and Maths
Ella Smye for not giving up in Maths
Infants
The Infants are still really enjoying their ‘rainforest’ topic that they were also doing last week. This week we also
learned about the story of ‘chocolate’-yum yum! In Maths we have been counting in ten’s and looking at patterns in
numbers.
On Thursday afternoon we had a delightful time exploring texture and colour with mud!
May we remind pupils about not wearing earrings during P.E. and that they need to be removed during this lesson?
Also, can we remind the pupils to have trainers for outdoor learning on Fridays?
Juniors
The juniors had a great time on Wednesday afternoon when they travelled to Lamplugh School to take part in the
high 5’s competition there. We had a lovely email today from the P.E. teacher saying how impressed he had been
with the attitude of the Lowca School pupils. Well done to those who took part.

Big welcome to Happy hours nursery providers
Following “Let’s Play’s” retirement at the end of this academic year, we are thrilled to announce that “Happy Hours”
will be operating a nursery provision from the current school site from the beginning of September. The school will
be renting them the current nursery room and “Happy Hours” will operate as an independent nursery provider.
They currently have nursery settings in Seaton and Low Moresby and come highly recommended. Here is an extract
from their latest Low Moresby Ofsted inspection. The full inspection report is available to read online.
“Children enjoy a good range of outdoor activities and play opportunities. These are provided in a number of
outdoor play areas, including a woodland play area with a forest nature trail where children can explore and
investigate the natural world around them.” Ofsted16.5.13
