Children taking part in the Challenge will join the Silly Squad, an adventurous team of animals who love to have a laugh and get stuck in to all different kinds of funny books!

Congratulations Darcy! Extreme Reading Challenge
Sports AmbassadorCongratulations to Fraser who has become our first Sports Ambassador!
We asked children in Years 4 and 5 to write a short paragraph explaining why they would be suitable for this role. After many discussions, the staff decided that Fraser would be a fantastic ambassador. Fraser will play a key role in promoting PE and School Sport at Totternhoe, help run and organise inter-house competitions, lead by example, especially in PE lessons and at break and lunchtimes and attend school council meetings. Congratulations Fraser! Keep your eyes peeled for information about our reading ambassador! Oakley - Pets as Therapy Dog We are VERY excited that we have started to be be visited by a school therapy dog as part of the Pets as Therapy Read2Dogs scheme. Jacqui is visiting us along with her dog, Oakley each week. Most weeks she is spending time with our Squirrel Squad and then she visits another class.
How it works Most adults are apprehensive about speaking in public as it can be very daunting and young people are no different. Research shows that young people can become nervous and stressed when reading to others in a group. However, when a PAT Dog enters the group, children often become less stressed, less self-conscious and more confident as the dogs are non-judgemental. Before long the young people are starting to look forward to the reading experience as they are going to read to their new friend. PAT Dogs provide comfort, encourage positive social behaviours, enhance self-esteem, motivate speech and inspire young people to have fun. The children have been told how much Oakley enjoys hearing stories and they have been sitting and interacting with Oakley. We're not sure who is enjoying it more! CYE - November 2019 - See CYE News! page

Dear Parents / Carers, What we will do if we get a positive case of Covid-19 We are really clear of what needs to be done by when and who will do it. The Senior Leadership team will follow ALL advice by Public Health England. PHE will give us all of the letters that we must send out to you and they will tell us who must self isolate. We will inform you by letter whether your child must self isolate or whether you can return to school. We CANNOT tell you who has had the positive test, and we would really appreciate you not speculating on social media, as this can cause worry and anxiety to others. If you do have any worries about a positive test result at school, please call or email us so we can get back to you ASAP. Please look at our return to school/ covid page for more details. Only water in bottles please (no juice or squash) and every child needs their own named bottle every day.
