Strange things



A Led Zeppelin fan has paid £83,000 for two tickets to the rock band's reunion concert, as part of an auction for the BBC's Children in Need.

BBC Radio 2 listener Kenneth Donnell, from Glasgow, paid to see the band rehearse and perform on 10 December.  

It would be fantastic to be able to spend that sort of money on charity as well as see the most awesome rock band of all time...oh to have money.

A Hole in Nursery!!

Salisbury School has lots of problems with its old building but for once the hole in nursey was intentional!

Nursey's kitchen has been given a make over and 2 window like hatches built in so that it is a lighter room and also staff can keep an eye on the wee ones while they are playing. (our new caretaker is ace!)

Springfield Infant School

Salisbury has  a friendship with a Shropshire School, Springfield Infant School.

Mrs Wheeler is the headteacher there!

Year 2 children are currently emailing each other. Springfield pupils are interested in finding out about the Muslim Faith and we are finding out interesting facts about the Shropshire pupils.

Let's hope we can get to know each other really well and eventually meet.

Thankyou for our Eid Cards!

Today Salisbury children had the lovely experience of seeing seven birds of prey. These included a selection of owls, hawks and falcons native to this country and other parts of the world. Selected pupils ( and teachers who wanted to) handled the birds using a special glove. They were so beautiful . It was a very rare experience.  This is a great picture of a Falcon drawn by Piotre .

By joining our Readathon and raising money through sponsors you will be raising money to help the following childrens charities. Please be supportive!

All the details you need will be given out to children, if you have any other questions please ask a class teacher. Thank you.

CLIC and Sargent Cancer Care for Children merged in January 2005 to become the UK's leading children's cancer charity. Both have a rich history of excellent care and support. Together, CLIC Sargent is both stronger and more effective providing more for more children and young people with cancer and their families CLIC Sargent, the UK’s leading children’s cancer charity, wants to see a world where all children and young people with cancer live life to the full. For children with cancer and their families, CLIC Sargent fund care professionals who deliver clinical and emotional care and support. We offer support to families who are in need of financial help, as cancer can carry a financial burden, with additional travel expenses and un-paid leave from work.
CLIC Sargent also provides a free support service to teenagers, empowering them to cope and understand what they are going through, during treatment and after.
We run Homes from Home close to paediatric oncology centres around the UK allowing families to stay together during periods of treatment giving them much needed breaks from the hospital environment.
CLIC Sargent funded research aimed at improving treatment and care.
CLIC Sargent will be there for each family caring every step of the way.

The Roald Dahl Foundation
Reg Charity No: 1004230
www.roalddahlfoundation.org
 
Roald Dahl was the honorary chairman of Readathon from 1988 until his death in November 1990. In 1991 his widow, Felicity, started a foundation in his name; the Roald Dahl Foundation’s grants aim to help children and their families in a very direct way, so it seemed natural for Readathon to help support it.
Readathon money is used by the Roald Dahl Foundation primarily to help children and young people suffering from blood disorders, epilepsy and the after effects of acquired brain injury.
Typical recent grants and projects include:
• New Roald Dahl Epilepsy nurse specialists in Portsmouth, Bolton and Gwent.
• A family support worker for children with an acquired brain injury in Northern Ireland, and their families.
• Books in Braille, on tape, on CD and touch and feel books for children with a visual impairment.
• Nursing care in their own homes for children with life-limiting neurological conditions
• Small grants to children with a blood or neurological condition where extra financial help is needed, for travel to hospital, clothing or bedding, telephone bills and for sensory equipment and specialist toys.

Readathon starts 2nd March!



I'm visiting my home town of Hartlepool and thought I might show you some of the sights, also I've just treated myself to a new digital SLR and wanted to have a play with it!!!

Hartlepool is in the North East of England and is a coastal town. I spent a lot of my younger years on the beach and miss it terribly(the beach not Hartlepool)

I've photographed some of the well known landmarks of the area, well you have to with a nooo camera, don't you?figurehead

lighthouse.JPG                                   restaurant                

Marina                                                tankers

sea         

The tanker photograph shows the ghost ships that contained toxic waste, they have been moored at Hartlepool  to be dismantled, Greenpeace and of course Hartlepool residents have been campaining to get them removed!  It is so eerie to see them,  even though I was quite a distance away because of heavy security!  transporter   
 nuclear power station      

The Nuclear Powerstation used to frighten me as a child! The huge transporter helped us to get from Hartlepool to Middlesborough, swinging across the River Tees.                                         doggy

Beautiful G

Georg loves visiting our friends and family up North but particularly loves Poppy, my sisters dog!       grands

g balls                         

Just enough time for a laze in the ball pool as doting grandparents (and great grandparents ) watch! They are both in their 80's and are celebrating their diamond wedding anniversary (60 years together) this year! Congratulations you will be chuffed to be on the web,

Hartlepuddlians built to last!

This afternoon we had a great treat!Dickens.JPG

S & P Theatre Productions came into school and showed us their production called "What the Dickens"

It took us back to Dickensian time and showed us how  Charles Dickens wrote some of his famous works as well as snippets of his books that hopefully will want the children to find and read more...

The acting was fantastic, some of the audience were moved to tears.

We are planning to have them back for other shows in their repertoire.

Big sis reaches the big 50
It's official.; I am NOT the oldest person in the world ( so there!). My sister is 50 in March and, awkward as ever, has declared that she will only accept hand-made cards for her birthday- none of those shop-bought, no effort jobs sez she. Well, I wouldn't mind but she's a bit of an artist you know, people have even paid good money for her paintings. I've tried to follow in her tiny size 4 footsteps but my paintings just make people laugh (and they're not meant to be funny). Anyway, where was I? Oh yes, rambling.... Maybe you could help me to design the perfect card for a short, grumpy 50 year old who is just being awkward cos she's jealous she can't do paintings that have people doubled up in mirth. The winning design will be lovingly reproduced in true Blue Peter style if I can find some sticky back plastic. Come on guys - Help!

Cairo
Today I had an email from Miss Bailey in Cairo. I am sure you can all remember her. She is teaching at a school in the Egyptian Capital. ( I had a display up in the hall when I returned from there in October)

Well she has been looking at our website with her pupils....is'nt that cool!  She even said, do your ears hang low.........( I owe her a choc bar, though she probably owes me one cause she used to eat all my food when she lived with me!)

Lets hope we can make some links with her school(Mr Wheeler can I have a free holiday, I fancy doing some more diving, hehehehe)
