The latest news from St Martin's School
Early this morning as Mrs Falle and Mrs Le Mercier arrived at school, they found a dog running around the road outside school. They managed to catch the dog and bought him inside school to look after him. We contacted Channel 103 and the Animal Shelter and we managed to find the owner and they were reunited before 8.15am! The Year 5 classteacher even used the missing dog as a stimulus for the children's writing this morning. He was well looked after by the teachers!
Year 6 had a visit from Prison Me No Way today. This is linked to our PSHE programme and the keeping safe aspect of the curriculum. Thank you to all the different support agencies for coming in to help us including Jersey Police, Fire and Rescue, Prison Service, First Aid, Water Safety and Road Safety.

Yesterday we had our Maths Puzzle Day. This was focusing on problem solving and reasoning in our maths curriculum. The children and teachers worked with Mr Parkinson, the Maths Advisor at the Education Department. They worked together in teams to solve different maths Puzzles. The Parents even had a go at the puzzles in a parent pop in at the end of the day.
