Everybody Writes - The Giant Dig!

Thu 28 Jan 2016 Miss Begum

On Monday 25th January the children made an unexpected and rather peculiar discovery; they were alerted to a message given by our school caretaker who advised the children that something mysterious was lurking in the school grounds...

The children became archaeologists for the day and went outside to dig the marked zones; throughout the course of the morning they discovered many unusual artefacts such as bones, precious stones and even a large tooth! The biggest discovery was made by Year 6 who recovered a giant egg! In the afternoon we were joined by officers from a local police station (PC Palmer and his team) who spoke to the children about what they found and double checked the egg using their tools! The officers were absolutely brilliant - they engaged with the children fully and added to the excitement of the day!

The children had a brilliant but rather messy time digging - the entire day was full fun and mystery. I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any clothes and shoes which became muddy as a result; nonetheless every child fully participated with the event and I look forward to reading some fantastic writing as a result!

None of this would be possible without the help and support of the entire staff at Rosetta, mainly our school caretakers - and it's official - Rosetta has the BEST caretakers in the WORLD!

If you would like to see pictures from the day, please have a look at the Rosetta TV!

Futsal Champions

Mon 25 Jan 2016 SF

Rosetta has done it again as we were crowned winners of the Futsal Tournament at Rokeby Secondary School! We have now been undefeated for the last two years but what is even more amazing is that our Year 3&4 team have not conceded a single goal in either year! Congratulations to the Futsal Team and to Mr Drisdale and Mr Brown for coaching them. Bring on the next tournament!

Going For Goals (SEAL)

Tue 19 Jan 2016 SF

SEAL focuses on children’s Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning. The SEAL unit for this half term is ‘Going for Goals’.

This unit focuses on setting yourself a target and taking responsibility to meet it; along the way children will learn to deal with difficulty in meeting their targets and persevering until they succeed. Also it is a perfect opportunity for children to support their friends in achieving their goals by encouraging them throughout the term.

You may find that your child wishes to discuss their ideas about this unit with you and we look forward to hearing your opinions!
