Thank you so much to Looe Primary for hosting the Bridge Schools Trust Alternative Sports Event this week. 6 of our Year 5 pupils joined 80 children across the trust to try fencing, Segway, street surfing and ultimate frisbee! They thoroughly enjoyed it and represented the school so well. It was another wonderful opportunity for our children to mix with other children across the Trust as well as put their sporting abilities to the test! They passed with flying colours! Well done team St Cleer!
Today 3/4B had a workshop with the Kernow King and all of Key Stage 2 enjoyed the Cornish Caretakers assembly all about historic influential figures in Cornish mining. This included Richard Trevithick's Puffing Devil; Humphry Davy's mining lamp; a female mine captain in Helston called Lydia, whose mine was named after her as ‘Wheal Lydia’. As well as being thoroughly entertained we took a step through time to remember and cherish the rich Corning Ming Heritage that still marks our landscape and continues to provide infrastructure and employment.
Thank you for joining us for a St Piran's Day sing this morning in the sunshine! Some of the things we love about Cornwall are the pasties, the clotted cream, the beaches! We also mentioned our sense of community and being together. We also have a newly crowned indoor world champion pole vaulter - well done to Molly!
There is much to be proud of.
It was not cream teas and pasties, but metallic ore that made Cornwall one of the most mineral rich areas of the world.
“Hard rock breeds hard men / Who slip between earth’s cracks for a living….” The words of West Country poet James Crowden (“The Wheal of Hope”).
Whatever you love about the county we live and work in I hope you enjoy a little of its sunshine today.
Well done to all of our Cross Country runners who have taken part in any of the Primary Schools Cross Country League races this season. It really is a fantastic achievement - whether it has been 1 race or all 5 of the series well done!
Particularly well done to one of our Year 5 girls who has qualified for the Newquay Team Cross Country Finals on the 25th March.
There will be a presentation evening in Liskeard Public Hall at 7pm on the 27th March to congratulate all runners who took part.
As a school we work with your children to support their understanding of using the internet and devices (including phones) so they know how to stay safe and know how to support their well being. This week Year 6 have a series of mini-police sessions including peer pressure and online safety which is another opportunity to support their self awareness and knowledge. We understand that many of you make or have made the decision to allow your child a phone/access to group chats/social media. It is important to remember that up until your child is 18 years old you are responsible for managing a contracted device and how it is used so regular checks and conversations at home will really support here. Here a poster from National Online Safety to support these discussions. A reminder that WhatsApp age rating is 16+
Well done to our Year 5 and 6 pupils who represented St Cleer at a Football Festival run by A-Level OCR sports studies students there. The children enjoyed the facilities as well as the chance to compete against other schools including Pensilva and Dobwalls.
Well done to all involved.
What a wonderful way to spend a day's learning - making food with local, fresh produce and then eating it with your friends in the sunshine with your friends! Well done to the EYFS and Year 1 team for bringing the learning to life in such a fun and memorable way!
