Sports Days Next week we are planning to hold all our sports days. If there is more than a 40% chance of rain on the BBC weather app for Ipswich we will postpone the evening before each event. Fingers crossed.

For Parents - WhatsApp for Under 13's With the exception of YouTube, WhatsApp has always been one of the most popular messaging apps, including for children under 13. This has always been a concern for a lot of different reasons, but out of the blue it seems that Meta have now created a parent-managed service which I think is really good. Similar to other parent-managed accounts, a parent will pair their device/account to the child's device/account which then gives a lot of flexibility such as: No 'view once' messages. No location sharing. Messages and group invites from unknown contacts sent to the parent for approval. Parent notifications, such as new contact added. Visit the WhatsApp Help Center to find out how to set up a parent managed account.

Then there were four...Newly hatched chicks often look dead because the hatching process is exhausting. They frequently collapse, close their eyes, and lie completely motionless right after breaking out of the shell. They perk up after a few minutes so don't panic.

NEXT ITFC MANAGER UPDATE I can confirm that after handing in my resignation, meeting with Mark Ashton on Monday and following Kieran McKenna stepping down at Ipswich this afternoon, I have not been asked to take on the managerial role at the Town.

There have been a couple of incidents recently in which our children have been involved in 'near misses' at the end of the day when crossing roads. We will talk about this again in assembly but please remind the children about basic road safety and if you can please use the zebra crossing. Thank you.

Years 4 and 5 have been very lucky this week! Analytical chemist Mr Law held science experience days for the children to investigate states of matter, solubility and chromatography. He even ended the day with the magic screaming jelly baby experiment! The students got to do two of their own experiments thanks to https://holbrookacademy.org lending us their science equipment and have learnt more about what it means to be a real scientist. We have some budding chemists at Gusford it seems! Can you guess who Mr Law is related to?

What is Mr Law doing to that poor Jelly Baby?
