Hill View Primary School

We’ve got an exciting week of events and visits coming up - don’t forget to

check the ‘Coming Up…` section for all the important upcoming dates.

Adam Gulliver had an amazing time representing Dorset at the County

Athletic Association competition. He competed in 4 events, jumped a

personal best of 2.05m and came 2nd overall. This is a huge achievement and

we’re immensely proud of him. Well done Adam!

SSCT Parent E-Safety Class

This is a huge opportunity for those of you who are less sure of what your

children get up to online, and what you can do to support and protect your

child. The presentation led by Dorset Police Safer Schools Community Team

will take place on March 23rd at 2:15pm and is likely to last an hour. Please

do come along and join us - it’s going to be a very worthwhile session for

everyone.

Year 6 Trips and Visits Payment Deadline

For those of you who are yet to make the final contribution to Year 6 Trips

and Visits payments, please be advised the final payment deadline is Friday

17th March. Please make your payments via WisePay - the link can be found

on the school website.

Year 2 SATs Meeting

If you were unable to make the meeting, or if you would like another look at

the information provided, the slideshow has been uploaded to the school

website under Year 2 Letters. Please visit hillviewprimary.co.uk/year-2-4/.

Year 4 Sporting Event at Bournemouth University

Mrs Taylor would like to thank everyone for their interest in the visit to

Bournemouth University on Friday. Unfortunately it was very oversubscribed

so some children were unable to attend, but we hope to organise another

visit in the Summer term.

National CSE Awareness Day - March 18th

The National Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) Awareness Day aims to highlight

the issues surrounding CSE; encouraging everyone to think, spot and speak

out against abuse and adopt a zero tolerance to adults developing

inappropriate relationships with children or children developing inappropriate

relationships with other children. More information regarding preventing and

recognising CSE is attached in the Barnardos leaflet.

Book Amnesty

We’re holding a book amnesty! Any books that belong to school in any

condition can be brought back into school, no questions asked, for the next

two weeks. We’re missing a lot of books, so would appreciate if everyone

could look carefully at home and bring them back to us.

Persuasive Writing

During a recent piece of classwork, Isabel Laker, Isabella Willington, Milly

Sansom and Lacey Chamberlain all took the opportunity to write a persuasive

letter to Mrs Simpson asking for a new class pet.

Their use of persuasive language, handwriting and some excellent reasoning

meant Mrs Simpson couldn’t say no! The girls went to the pet shop on

Tuesday to pick up their new class pet. Later that day the class chose a name -

welcome to our school, Harry (Potter) Edison!

Year 5 and 6 took part in a tag rugby competition last Tuesday. We expect to

hear the results from this soon.

Please see the front page for some news about Adam Gulliver. He’s had an

amazing week!

There is no tennis coaching taking place this week. It will begin again the

week of 20th March.

HV Sports Update

This week’s sports trophy winner was Maisie Smith for her dancing and gymnastics! Well done!
