MULTI-CULTURAL WEEK Mr Power has been very busy recently organising a Multi-Cultural

Week for us after half term. He has arranged for each year to have a

visit or visitor connected to a particular religion. There will be special

assemblies every day and Mr Raggett, our Chair of Governors will be

supporting the week with special lessons taking place on the CRIBS

Bus. On Monday year 1, 2 and 6 will look at Sikhism; Tuesday Year 1

are visiting St Peter’s Church and Year 3 visiting the Gurdwara at

Belvedere while Year 4 and 5 have a talk on Islam; on Wednesday

Year 2 have a trip to St Michael’s church while Year 4 visit the Islamic

temple; Thursday sees a talk on Judaism for Year 1, 3 and 4 and Year

6 visit the Hindu Mandir in Neasden and finally on Friday Year 1, 2

and 3 will have a talk on Hinduism. During the week some parents

have offered to come in and help. Classes will also be covering plenty

of other exciting activities during the week. This is the first time we

have had a multi-cultural week with such a full programme of events

so many thanks to Mr Power for his hard work , we are all looking

forward to this special focus.

Brampton Primary is a restorative school where the initial response to conflict is to

find a solution where things are put right, the victims needs are met whilst also

meeting the needs of the wrong doer and meet all the schools responsibilities.

GARY W ILSON SPEAKS TO OUR JUNIORS

On Friday Gary Wilson made his last visit

to Brampton as part of the Boys Will Be…

project. He spoke to our all of juniors and

was joined by some of their parents. His

themewas

believe in

yourself

and he amazed the children and

adults with several exercises to

improve their own abilities. The

most important message of the

afternoon was to have a good breakfast and to always be listening.



SEAL HOME ACTIVITIES FOR PARENTS TO USE - RELATIONSHIPS

Brampton Bulletin

Family quiz time

How well do the important people in your life really know you? Think of some questions to

find out. Here are some to get you started.

What is my favourite meal?Who is my best friend?

How many brothers and sisters do I have? (parents/carers only)

Who do I sit next to in class? (child only)

Where was I born? (parents and carers only)

Lost

Think about anything that you have lost that you felt was particularly special. It might be a

favourite object or toy. It might be a friend who has moved away or a pet that has died. Take it in turns to

tell each other about your thoughts. You might like to draw a picture or write something to remind you.

Family collage or displayMake a list of the people in your family who are important to you. Try to include the people who you don't

see very often, important people you have never met and people who have died. Is there a special way of

helping you remember special people in your community or family?

Think about the things that remind you of these people. Collect things or pictures of these things and put

them in a display or make a collage.

If you were …

Take it in turns to finish the sentences for members of the family.

If you were an animal I think you would be ….

If you were a biscuit I think you would be …If you were a piece of furniture I think you would be …

If you were a place I think you would be …

Make up some sentences of your own to finish.

If anyone has tried any of the activities suggested this term we would love to hear about it.

Charity Fund Raising

The Lifeboat Collection box in school raised £8.81. Many thanks to those who made a

donation.

Children’s Achievements

Recently Charlotte Pullen in 5M and Aimee Irving in 1B appeared at the Albert Hall to perform with

their dance school—’Dance Act Theatre School’. Their piece was called Rain Mix and was a jazzdance. Megan Sanderson in her dance group ‘Illuminate’ competed in ‘Starpower’, an American

competition in Central London. They did amazingly well, not only did they win the ‘Award of

Excellence’, the Victory Cup, win their category and achieve best overall 12-14 age group but were

awarded the ‘Triple Threat’ award. They were then chosen by the American industry judges to

represent the UK on the Starpower website, and if enough votes are achieved they will fly them to

Dallas, USA to represent the UK in the international competition.



New Build

The new infant extension is coming on well. Staff have ordered their new furniture andplanned for their ICT needs. The extension will consist of new classrooms for Reception

and Year 2. Year 1 will be in the refurbished rooms. The Breakfast and After school club

will also be in there with doors onto the playground.

Peanut Allergies

Please can we remind everyone that we are a ‘Peanut Free’ school in our cooked meals and we ask

parents not to put any nuts or items containing nuts in their child’s packed lunches. Thank you

FOB News

Many thanks to FOB, Mrs Lee the DJ and all the parent helpers who made

last week’s Neon Disco a success. The children enjoyed themselves and

valuable funds were raised to support the school.



And finally.......Medical appointments

If you wish you child to keep a high attendance record

we recommend where possible that medical or dentist

appointments be made for during the morning. This way

your child will get their registration mark and can return

for the rest of the morning. The same thing applies for

the afternoon session, if appointments can be made for

after registration time your child only needs to miss the

end of the day and not lose their attendance mark.

Please can you also remember to let the office know as

soon as possible of any absence due to sickness etc.

For further advice pleased see our office staff.

Remember if you like what we’re doing —tell

us and others! If you don’t, please help us im-

prove!
