• Parent Page— Tips for talking to your child about safer strangers

  Fri 13 Feb 2026

  Try saying things like:

   

  · When you are outside of your house there are lots of people. People you do not know are called strangers. Not all strangers are nice and you cannot tell if somebody is nice by how they look.

   

  · If somebody you are not expecting to asks you to go with them never go and tell an adult.

   

  · If you are lost or scared look for a safer adult stranger.

   

  · Who is a safer adult stranger? A parent/ carer, a police officer, a doctor, a teacher are all examples of safer strangers

   

  · If you cannot find a safer stranger look for a safer building you can go in to which may have safer adult strangers inside.

   

  · What is a safer building? A church, a mosque, a police station, a local shop such as Tesco.

   

  · If you are worried about any conversations or behaviours of strangers tell your safer people who can help.

• Year Group Focus—Year 3

  Fri 13 Feb 2026

  Year 3

   

  Throughout the term, we have been working hard studying the ancient Egyptians and as part of our work in Art we have created some spectacular pieces of foil art. To do this, we firstly designed our very own Egyptian style god or goddess to be the focal point of our final product. We then used what we have learned about the artist Friedensreich Huddertwasser to design and decorate the background. We think the final results are pretty amazing! What do you think? 

   

  Through our work in History and English, we have looked at the process of mummification and considered why the ancient Egyptians mummified their dead. To help us to understand the different stages of this incredible process we ‘mummified’ our own salad tomatoes using salt and baking soda instead of   natron salt. The results were, as predicted, surprising as the tomatoes that we had preserved came out of the salt looking almost brand new. Whereas the   tomato that wasn’t preserved was left as a slimy, horrible mess in the bottom of the container.
