Washing our hands
It is really important that we are all washing our hands regularly and very thoroughly. Take a look at these posters about when and how to wash our hands during the day. They are on display inside our school building too.
How to come to our School safely
Here is our first two short films on how to arrive at school safely. There are also signs on display at our main entrance on Church Road to remind you of some of the important things to remember.

Hello Again!
We hear you loved our photographs, so this week we are giving you a special treat!! A video message from almost all of the Levens Team…..
Rainbow Poems
Skiddaw class looked at a poem My Colours by Colin West. Dougal, Cerys and Hettie have sent in their own fantastic versions. We hope you may be inspired to create your own by reading, watching and listening to them here…
Skiddaw News Round Up
Here is a selection of more wonderful work that has been coming to me via photos and video. Thank you to everyone who has sent me information and photos. Keep them coming, you are all amazing! Mrs W
Food and Cooking – Some pupils took part in the NFU live lesson and others have created dishes to celebrate Easter and VE Day. Talia and Miley’s Aunt and Uncle from Devon helped them create their bread and butter VE Day inspired pudding via zoom and they dressed up too!
Science – Here are lots of busy pupils working outdoors on our science theme of Living Things. Some lovely creations using bark rubbings as well as categorising animals and flowering and non-flowering plants. Joseph has kindly been looking after our potatoes and you can see they are thriving in his care – thank you Joseph!
Other photos of pupils hard at work creating sentences, making cards to thank those wonderful workers, having success with Numbots and creating marble runs. What a super selection – I’m really proud of the creativity, resilience and perseverance you are showing every week. 🙂
Bug Hotels
Across the UK, hotels and Guest Houses are closed for now, but Scafell pupils have been making sure the minibeasts in our gardens are living in luxury in their five-star accommodation! These have been created with materials collected on walks and in the local environment including: sticks, leaves, pebbles, plant pots, bricks, guttering, tubes etc.
Encouraging the right kind of bugs into our gardens helps pollinate flowers and keeps away unwanted pests, like snails too.
Here are some of the fabulous examples they’ve created so far. Well done Scafell!
