New Gold

So, the first Golden Book of 2011 has just passed by and which wonderful student found himself in its illustrious pages? It was...RUY!

He got into the Golden Book because of his dedication to independent learning during our Astronomy topic. He has discovered many interesting and unusual pieces of information and, not only that, he has been able to explain all of the things he has learned to the rest of the class. Well done Ruy!

Two more Super Students are appearing in the blog at the moment. Laila and Saleh are the first people from our class to go up a level in 3 Minute Maths. Well done to you two and come on everyone else!

We Are Golden

Here's a few of our latest wonderkids:




One more to come tomorrow and we might even be able to get one of the best group.

Random Reprobates

It has been brought to my attention that I have been rather remiss in updating the Golden Book pictures. We didn't have one last week and we were on holiday for the previous two weeks but here are a collection of recent winners for your delectation.

Super Students!

I'm a bit behind, what with being away for a few days and the computer not letting me put pictures on the blog. Anyway, here's a couple who were missed out last week: Saleh was put in the Golden Book a couple of weeks ago and our best group last week was Group 3. Well done to them all.

Old Gold

Here's one of our Golden Book entries from lo-o-ong ago who missed out on getting his picture in because he went on holiday :-( It's Oliver!

Golden Book

Well done to Faisal, who came up with a great target for himself and got into the Golden Book because of it. Most people were thinking of things such as; get better at English, go up a level in 3MM and so on. Faisal had a truly selfless idea of helping poor people by collecting his old toys and either passing them on or selling them to raise money. It's such a good idea that we're going to try and do something in Y5 to help as much as we can.

Well done Faisal!

Star of the Week

This week, I chose Arshee. My main reason was for her exceptional art work. Her latest piece, a mosaic, is now on display in the Art Room. Pretty much everything she does is extremely careful, extremely thorough and extremely good. Well done Arshee!

Star of the Week

This week I chose Nadia. She might be very chatty in class and has trouble sitting properly on her seat but she has really made a big effort to improve her work, especially her maths and handwriting. When I think about what she was like before Christmas, oh my goodness! But now; amazing! Well done Nadia!

Star of the Week

This week I chose a new boy; Majed. He's settled into a new school very well and has surprised me by doing some really good work straight away. Usually new children take time to fit in with the rest of the class but Majed looks like he has been here for much longer than a few weeks. Well done!

Star of the Week!

This week, it's Ali. I sometimes have a problem thinking of people to put in the Golden Book and this week was one of those times. I was looking around the class, wondering who to choose, when I thought, "Ali is always sensible, always does his best and always has sensible things to say in class." So well done Ali.

Star of the Week!

Congratulations to our Golden Book boy; Abdullah.



He has been extremely kind and considerate towards Majed, our new boy, which is exactly what we want to see in Y4-5. Well done Abdullah!

Congratulations as well to Omar, Mohammed and Serena for some really interesting presentations on animals. They will be adding their apple to the class tree.
