Welcome to the first edition

of HI!

Heyhouses Inspires is YOUR magazine.

It’s a unique magazine for the parents and

guardians of children at Heyhouses

Primary School.

The magazine is full of ideas, from you the

parents, as well as contributions from

members of the school council so we can

see what the children like to do too! And

all aimed at helping you to take the 5

Steps to Wellbeing by connecting, being

active, taking notice, finding ways to give

and learn new ideas.

This copy is our first attempt to take

what you said you wanted in your

magazine from the survey that was put

together by the school council.

Many of you asked for ideas of what was

on locally and you will find examples of

things to do over the holidays, come rain

or shine.

There are trips out, and places to visit,

with examples of brilliant deals to help

make the money go further.

Many of the events are specially put on

over the Easter Holidays so there are

plenty of chances to hunt for Easter Eggs

and get active outdoors. And if the

weather is kind to us try some of the

tasty recipes with ideas for picnics tried

and tested for hungry children!

You also asked for quizzes so there a few

with an Easter theme and some arts and

crafts for those not so sunny days.

But it’s not all for trying out over the

holidays. In the survey you asked for ideas

to help with homework and some parents

have offered websites that they have

found useful.

But, we hope this is only the start. Look

out for a special M.A.D. news requested

by parents with children in reception who

have not shared in this amazing fortnight

before, with ideas for dressing up and

stories of past experiences.

Happy Easter!

We are planning to do another HI!

magazine before the summer holidays

and one for Christmas.

BUT we need your help!

We would like to know what you thought

about this first edition. A suggestion box

will be available at both sites after the

Easter holidays to tell the editorial team

what was good, and what you would like

more of.

And then the box will return waiting for

you to fill it with ideas for the next

summer edition!

You can also email your views, or any

stories and photos to

[email protected]

Happy Easter Holidays from the editorial

team, Mrs Bashora, Amanda Holt, David

Thorley, Claire Markham, Joanne Innes,

Debs Rimmer and the members of the

school council.

Many thanks also to those who replied to

the survey and helped provide ideas for

the HI! – Heyhouses Inspires magazine.

Cycling along Blackpool

PromenadeThis is brilliant and safe so park up at

Squires Gate and bike it along the prom’

noticing the many pieces of creative art

along the way and enjoy a good laugh at

the Comedy Carpet (just across from

the Tower).

So it’s a trip that not only keeps your

body physically fit but also increases the

level of health-enhancing hormones like

endorphins. Laughter increases the

number of antibody-producing cells

which means a stronger immune

system, as well as fewer physical effects

of stress.

Ideas for days out at Witch Wood and

Park View from School Council

Witch wood – LythamWitch wood is a brilliant forest in

Lytham. There is a park close to where

the trail ends – Park View. You can have

lots of fun in the wood and on the

playground, where there is a café. And

there are lots of special activities taking

place over Easter too!

Have fun baking something different and healthy. We bake them

all the time at our house, the children love them especially for

those break time snacks or when they arrive home from school

always starving! There really easy to make and the children love

getting involved too.

This recipe makes 12 scrumptious muffins, which can be

individually bagged and put in the freezer for use as and when

required. Why not try using some chopped bananas, raspberries,

cherries or chopped up apricots for a bit of variation.

You will need:-250g self-raising flour

140g golden caster sugar

150ml milk

120ml vegetable oil

1 large egg

175g blueberries (or fruit of choice)

What to do:

1. Set the oven to 200degC. Put the muffin cases in the muffin

tin and set to one side.

2. Crack the egg in a bowl and beat it. Mix in the milk and oil.

3. Mix the flour and sugar in another bowl. Scoop a well in the

middle; add the blueberries and the wet ingredients.

4. Fold the mixture together gently in a few strokes with a

wooden spoon.

5. Spoon the mixture into the muffin cases, bake for 20-25

minutes until golden brown.

6. Enjoy!

Thank you Claire Markham for this brilliant recipe. Look out for

more of Claire’s recipes in the next edition of HI!

Blueberry Muffins

Page 9: HI Magazine - Heyhouses Inspires

• Clear jar with lid

• Water

• Glitter

• Food colouring

• Vegetable oil

• Salt

• Flashlight

• An old news paper

1. Place the newspaper on a flat surface to soak up any spillages. Then,

carefully fill your jar three quarters full with water.

2. Next, slowly add a few drops of food colouring until the water becomes

the colour you’d like. Don’t go wild-a few drops will go a long way.

3. Sprinkle in some glitter for extra sparkle and then fill the jar almost to

the top with vegetable oil. Allow the mixture to separate.

4. Now, pour a little salt until you see a cool lava lamp affect! When the

bubbles stop, add more salt to see it again.

5. To watch your fantastic lava lamp really glow, try shining a flashlight

behind the jar.

What You’ll Need

Totally Awesome!

Thanks to the School Council

for this great idea.

A useful website for maths from one of

the mums......

‘I’m no good at Maths!’ our daughter

cried out one day last year when we were

trying to do some homework.

I was really distressed to hear that

phrase. Where had she got that idea from

and why did she think that? I didn’t want

her to saddle herself with that label and

decide that she couldn’t do maths.

I know it’s a bit of a confession, but I have

always loved maths ever since I was at

primary school when I used to race home

to see how far I could get in my maths

text book in order to beat my arch rival

Barry Edwards!

My Dad used to drill me on times tables

at breakfast most mornings and although

I probably groaned, I do know them off by

heart and I use mental arithmetic all the

time. I only use a calculator for ‘big sums’!

Around the same time, we were asked to

try and work on our daughter’s maths at

home, as she was struggling a bit in class.

So my husband and I set about trying to

bring maths into our everyday life.

She is a very active child, so he dreamt up

games where you jumped forward to add

and backwards to subtract and then when

she reached the end of the lounge she

went out on the trampoline to bounce as

a treat. She really enjoyed this, but soon

got wise to our attempts to slip maths

into shopping trips, car journeys, cooking

and almost anything!

A friend of our parents having heard that

we were having a bit of a maths

campaign, gave us the name of a very

useful website called Bedtime Math (it’s

American): www.bedtimemath.org

Every day they post a bulletin with a

different topic. For example, there was

one recently about bridges which tells

you about the three longest bridges in the

USA.

Each bulletin is followed by three levels of

questions:

Wee ones: simple sums which can be

done by counting on your fingers

Little children: slightly harder level which

is probably suitable for Year 2

Big children: harder still and suitable for

juniors.

They give you the answers too for those

of you who don’t want to work it out

yourselves!

The only disadvantage is that it is an

American site so the units aren’t in

metric, but you can either just say it as if

it is metric or just ignore them because

most of the time it doesn’t affect the

maths. We used this site a lot last year

and along with all our other strategies, it

really helped our daughter’s maths to

improve considerably. She has stopped

saying that she’s no good at maths and

when she did say something negative the

other day, I was able to say; ‘That’s not

true, you are good at maths now!’

Karate

ClubHeyhouses After School Karate Club is

open for years 3, 4, 5 and 6.

On Tuesdays we hold our Advanced

Classes and on Thursdays we teach the

Beginners.

Junior School Office.

The Club is run by Ray Wilkin, 6th Dan, a

Chief Instructor of the Shotokan Karate

International Federation, which is

skill to learn.

Read the Book

Former pupil, John Booth, has written a

history of Heyhouses Primary School.

The book is beautifully produced and

illustrated with many photos as it tells the

story of the school from the eighteenth

century to present day.

It is a true celebration of a wonderful

school and is throughly recommended to

anyone who has an interest in Heyhouses.

It is full of interesting facts and stories.

Did you know that our school existed

before the town of St Anne’s was built?

Published by Scotforth Books, it is

available from local book shops.

What to do:1. Preheat oven to moderate (180oC/160oc fan

assisted) Grease 19cm x 29cm shallow baking

tin.

2. Place flour and sugar in medium bowl; use

cut the mixture.)

5. Enjoy!

Head Lice

GETTING TO GRIPS WITH THOSE NITS

It often helps to understand the lifecycle of

the head lice in order to get rid of them

completely. Head lice vary in size according

to their age.

They can be from the size of a full stop up to

a grain of rice. They are difficult to spot

because they can match their colour to that

of their environment.

Lice live close to the scalp where they feed.

They cannot jump,fly or swim. They stick to

humans and are not interested in your pets.

They do not prefer clean hair to dirty.

The adult female louse will lay between 3 and

5 eggs per day. These will hatch after 7 days.

Combing is the best way to be rid of lice.

Even if you miss an egg, if you keep combing

every few days you will catch any new lice that

have hatched and be rid of them before they

are mature enough to begin laying eggs.

Lotions on the market are usually full of

chemicals and only kill the lice not the eggs.

A good comb on the market is the `nitty

gritty comb` which was designed by mothers

who were fed up with lice. I find it not only

pulls out lice but eggs (nits) too.

So come on mums! Once a week take a peek!

Bath, hairwash, condition then comb. If you

make it part of your routine you shouldn't

have a problem with nits!!

Egg Decorations

Speckled Eggs

Mix and match contrasting egg and paint

colors to create a bright, speckled

collection.

You'll need:

Eggs

Store-bought or DIY egg dyes

Acrylic craft paint

Old toothbrush

Wax paper

What to do:

Dye eggs desired colors and let dry

completely. Pour a small amount of

acrylic craft paint on a piece of wax paper.

Dip the toothbrush into the paint, and

dab the excess on the wax paper. Hold an

egg over the wax paper in one hand, and

with your other hand, hold the

toothbrush about 2 inches over the egg.

Run your thumb along the bristles to

spray paint on the egg. Let dry.

Tips: To really simplify things, you can skip

dying the eggs and just speckle white

eggs.

Have a Nice Day Eggs

This blast from the past image is a super

easy way to make your eggs happy.

You'll need:

Eggs

Store-bought or DIY egg dye (yellow)

Fine tip black marker

Eggshell Gardens

Roll up your sleeves and get crafty with

your children – they’ll love the end results

What you need

1) Empty eggshells and box they came in

2) Compost

3) Seeds

4) Coffee stirrers or card for name tags

How to make it

1) Fill the egg shells with compost and

sprinkle water over each one to make

sure the soil is really damp.

2) Sow the seeds in the shells according

to the instructions on the packet, and pop

each one in the egg carton. Place this on

a sunny windowsill, where it can be

watered easily.

3) When plants have grown to about 8cm

(3in) and have at least two sets of true

leaves, they are ready to be transplanted

to the garden.

Simply crush the shell when you plant

each one in the vegetable patch or

flowerbed.

1 At Easter Christians celebrate Christ's

resurrection from the dead.

2 A long time ago, people weren't allowed

to eat eggs in the week before Easter, so

any eggs laid by chickens would be saved

and painted. Today we eat chocolate eggs

instead. Yum!

3 Jesus Christ died on Good Friday. The

word 'Good' used to mean 'Holy' so it's

likely it actually means 'Holy Friday'.

4 It's the Easter Bunny! Normal rabbits

can't lay eggs, but they are a symbol of

new life because they have lots of babies

in each litter.

5 It's 40 days. Christians give up

something they like to remember the

sacrifices Jesus Christ made.

6 Palm Sunday celebrates the day that

Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey

and was greeted by cheering crowd

7 Jesus finished the Passover meal by

sharing bread and wine

8 On Ash Wednesday people put ash on

their foreheads

9 Shrove Tuesday is the last day to indulge

before Lent.

10 Lent is the time of abstinence (of

giving things up)

11Mardi Gras and Pancake Day fall on

Shrove Tuesday

12 The ashes used on Ash Wednesday are

made by burning palm crosses which have

been saved from Palm Sunday last year.

13 During Lent Christians remember the

time Jesus spent in the Wilderness

14 Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus for 30

silver coins.

15 Pontius PIlate was the judge at Jesus'

trial and the man who authorized the

crucifixion of Jesus.
