Celebration Assembly
Congratulations to all of the children who have been working hard, and displaying our values in and out of school this week.
Teamwork ♦ Respect ♦ Integrity ♦ Enjoyment ♦ Discipline
Election Launch
Thursday saw the launch of the Cannon Park election during assembly. Each party leader shared the name of their party, their three values and their key election message to the whole school. The parties are busy writing their manifestos as well as creating persuasive presentations and campaign posters. Our election will be held in three weeks. The children are really enjoying learning all about democracy, which is one of our British Values.
Remembrance Sunday
In Year 3 , this afternoon we have been learning about Remembrance Sunday. We thought about the importance as well as the significance of the poppy. We then spoke about the how the poppy was the only flower to grow on the battlefields after World War I. A number of children spoke about how their family members were in the war.
After this, we made our own poppies.

As the nation prepares for a General Election, Cannon Park will be experiencing their own election to learn about the British Value of democracy.
This week, Year 6 have formed five political parties, nominated party leaders and come up with party values as well as their key election message. Over the next few weeks, the parties will try to persuade the children on Cannon Park to vote ahead of our very own Cannon Park election in December.
The key messages the parties are campaigning on are: the environment; use of technology; equipment in school; developing academically; being outdoors. It is sure to be a close election!
Superheroes
Year 1 had an amazing wow day to launch our superhero topic. We made super tasty porridge fingers, designed our own superhero capes and learnt how real life heroes help us too. We showed all of our school values, especially ‘enjoyment’!
Pirates!
Year 2 had a great day on Monday when everyone dressed up as a pirate. The children looked fearsome in their costumes! We played pirate games, role played some pirate activities and wrote about a day in the life of a pirate.
Year 5’s Homework has been out of this world.
Mrs, Aston, Mrs Reihill and Miss Cleveland would like to say a huge thank you to all of our Year 5 parents for their help and support with the children’s Space Homework, and are looking forward to welcoming you this afternoon to share the amazing range and creativity of projects. Sadly, there won’t be any cake left by then!
Pumpkins
As part of our Autumn Disco, the Friend of Cannon Park organised a pumpkin-carving competition. The entries were all very impressive and clearly show the creative talents of our children. Well done to everyone, who entered. We wish you all a restful half term holiday.
