Every few weeks we choose children from our class to be our

WOW

Whitwell's Outstanding Worker

During our Health Promotion week we have taken part in lots of different activities. Natalie has been really enthusiastic all week and has loved being active.
We have discovered that Natalie has a special talent!
Not only can she hula hoop for a good length of time...she can hula hoop with 3 and 4 hoops at a time!!
This is definitely a WoW moment Natalie - well done!

Adeline's confidence has grown so much this year. She is a completely different girl now from the one who timidly walked through our door in September.
During our Health Promotion week we had an active workshop led by Carl. He picked Adeline to stand at the front of the hall to show everyone her moves. This was in front of all Nursery and Reception children and staff. She did this without any hesitation!
Congratulations on your second WoW this year Adeline - which you absolutely deserve!

We are so pleased that Jack has been in our class this year. He works really hard and is always ready for a challenge. Jack is extremely well behaved and he is polite, kind and is a fantastic friend to everyone. 

Congratulations on your second, well deserved WoW this year, Jack!

Charlie's confidence has grown so much, especially over the last few months. He is now showing us how much is learning and remembering. He is also showing us his 'big voice' which is fantastic!

Well done Charlie!

Elsie is such a delight to have in class. Her speech and language amaze us every day and she can hold a short two-way conversation, which is fantastic! Elsie is doing really well with her learning and she will happily complete a task with us. Elsie also has a lovely sense of humour and likes to make us laugh.

Well done on your Wow award this week Elsie!

We are so proud of how much Soraya is learning at the moment. She is concentrating really hard with her writing and it is becoming neater every day. Soraya is also a brilliant mathematician - she knows all the number bonds to 10 without using anything to help her to count!

Congratulations on your second WoW award this year Soraya!

Hayden was chosen for WoW this week for improving so much in maths. He can recognise numbers and can do some simple addition. He has done some brilliant, independent work this week when measuring long and short items. He is becoming a great mathematician.

Well done Hayden!

We have chosen Oscar for a WoW award this week because of his much improved attitude in the classroom and towards his learning. He has settled quickly to do his work and has listened to what he has been asked to do. He has also started to blend sounds together to read words and has now got a reading book with words which is fantastic!

Keep it up Oscar - well done!
