The children were very excited last Friday for the arrival of our very own Tardis. Mr Lister the managing director from D S Smith Featherstone was asked if he could provide us with a large box which we could use to paint and create a Tardis. Mr Lister spoke to his contact Bob the Managing Director of a the D S Smith business in Rawcliffe and asked if they could provide him with a box approx 120*60*60cm to be used by a local Primary School to create a Tardis. However due to the nature of business which Rawcliffe specialise in they were not happy in just providing a box and their designers Rob and Martin set about making a scaled down replica of the Tardis used on the Dr Who series. This involved Rob and Martin researching the actual dimensions of the one used on the Dr Who series, enabling them to design a smaller version to be used in the classroom. We would like to Thank everyone involved for their hard work in designing the Tardis, it is so much more than we were ever expecting. Thank you.
The children enjoyed painting the model and were very excited to be able to play inside it. The children are looking forward to going on some good adventures and we can't wait to find out where the Tardis takes the children.
On Thursday 4th March we celebrated World Book day. The children brought in their favourite books and spoke to the class about why it is their favourite book. Your child has a £1 book token which is redeemable against a book worth £2.99 or more between 1st March to 28th March 2010. There are a selection of books which have been specially produced and can be exchanged for the book token.
