STEM club will take place every Wednesday after school from 3:15-4:15pm. I (Mr Auckland) am leading it alongside Mrs Rowton from our fabulous PTFA. Mrs Rowton is a STEM ambassador and will be supporting the school with her specialist knowledge and equipment. There are a number of projects that we may be involved in. To start with we will be designing and building model cars for the F1 in schools challenge. This is an exciting initiative that involves local and national competition. Children use specialist equipment – learning about computer aided design software and how nets can be turned into 3D models. These models are then made and raced against other schools. When we entered previously, we reached the national finals so we’re excited to see how we get on this time.
At the moment there is space to join this club but we anticipate that these spaces will very quickly be filled. Come and join us and discover the power of STEM!

Re: Forest School for Year 5 â Miss Leechâs Class
Dear Parent/Guardian,
Next term will see the start of Forest School sessions for your childâs class. Please take a moment to read the information below and complete the medical/allergies questionnaire attached, returning to school no later than Monday 3rd June.
Dates
Wednesdays â 5th June, 12th June, 19th June, 26th June, 3rd July
Your child will be told by their class teacher which session they are in, and all children will change into and out of their Forest School clothes at school, so please come to school in normal uniform, school shoes and coat.
They will be taking part in activities that involve team building, how to take risks safely, problem solving and communicating. Children can bring their water bottles out with them and there may be some snacks provided (please see the questionnaire attached regarding dietary requirements/allergies).
What to bring
The great British weather can be unpredictable, and, as all sessions are outside – whatever the weather – please be aware that your childâs clothing and coat is very likely to get wet, muddy and dirty â this is part of the experience for them!
Children will change into their Forest School clothing at school:
- T-shirt(s) and jumper â lots of thinner layers are better than one thicker layer!
- Jogging bottoms or leggings â no shorts, and jeans are not suitable as, if they become wet, your child may get very cold
- Spare Socks â these may get wet so children need an extra pair other than their school uniform socks
Children will also need to bring the following items in a plastic bag (not in their school bag):
- Wellies or walking boots (please provide an extra plastic bag to put dirty footwear in after their session)
- Waterproof/warm coat
- Waterproof trousers (optional)
- Hat, gloves, scarf for colder-weather sessions
Please ensure all items of clothing are named.
Medical and Health information
Please could you take some time to complete this form by Monday 3rd June.
If you have any questions, please email year5@muxtonprimary.org.uk
Kind regards,
Mrs Turner and Miss Wilkinson
Forest School Team
