FAREWELL MS LAMBERT!!
We shared our thanks to Ms Lambert this week, as she leaves St
Jude’s after ten and half years. We held a special assembly to
share our reflections and thanks for her dedication to St Jude’s.
Children in reception, year one
and year 2 had made cards to
present to Ms Lambert, with
special messages written on
hearts and flowers. She also left
with a huge bunch of flowers
and gifts from parents!
We wish her lots of
luck and happiness in
the next chapter of her
life!
World War II Day!
Year 5 experienced a taste of the 1940s on Thursday as they arrived to
school ready to be evacuated. The children were sent to far and wide
across the school. Some were lucky, others not so much. Mr Sharp,
Mr Ellis and Miss Douch were particularly unfriendly hosts! After our
experience of evacuation, we baked some cakes without using eggs or
milk to experience cooking under rationing. We also created bunting and
Union Jack pinwheels to help us celebrate VE Day in the afternoon.
After lunch, we returned to class to Winston Churchill’s announcement
that the war had ended. One rousing rendition of God Save the King
later and we set to work decorating the classroom for our party. We
tried 1940s dancing, ate our cakes and had a run around outside. What a
busy day!
Life as an evacuee… Party preparations…
Cake and games!
Walk to School Week
Thank you to our School Council children who
led our assembly launching Walk to School
Week! So many children have completed
their 5 day walking challenge, thank you
parents for supporting us with this.
Clean Air Campaign
All children took part in a ‘Keep Our Air Clean’ poster competition, judged by two
governors, Mark Wilkinson and Jonathan Bennett. They had a tough job choosing the
winning poster – which will be made into a banner to be placed on the fence at the
front of our school.
Clean Air Poster Competition – The results!
Thank you to our judges, Mr Mark Wilkinson and Mr Jonathan Bennett for judging this

St Jude's Online Safety Newsflash
Sim Simi – a social networking app to be avoided
SimSimi is an Artificial Intelligence (AI) social networking chat bot app that learns from conversations,
questions and user’s responses.
This free app is full of pop ups and adverts, it asks personal questions and you can talk about anything and
anyone and then share it publicly.
It is easy to see how and why users misuse this app for online bullying and can believe they are talking to a
real person. It allows the user to ask the app to ‘think for them’ and creates a comment based on the con-
versation that is being had.
It is clear why this is attractive to younger users but it should be avoided by all.
Lost Property:- A black H&M jumper was found last night after the Quiz Night, please call the office or
pop in to collect it.
Thank you
Mrs Richmond-Taylor
