As part of team Resilience's home learning, they were asked to research and create a piece of art in the style of Mondrian. They could use any medium they wanted, including lego. Once completed they produced a biography. Well done Team Resilience for some inspiring creations and keep up the great home learning. A big well done to Morgan for passing her Emerald Times Tables Award.
While the weather is still glorious, why not have a go at the KJS keepy uppy challenge? All you have to do is post us a video of you performing as many keep ups as you can using any ball, balloon or even a rolled up ball of socks! You can use your feet, head or hands. It's entirely up to you. It'll even count towards your KJS Sports badge too.
We can't wait to see your video so make sure you post them to us by email info@kilburn-jun.derbyshire.sch.uk or you can tweet them to us instead https://twitter.com/kilburnjuniors

Good morning. I hope you and your families are all well during the unprecedented circumstances we find ourselves in.
I would like to to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for using the home-school booklets to support your child whilst our school is closed. We understand that this has been a challenging time and as such each member of staff is incredibly grateful for your continued support. It is heart-warming to have been sent so many photographs of our children engaging in different activities and enjoying themselves at home too.
Feedback from many of you suggests that your child has completed their booklet and you are now ready for further support from your child’s teacher.
Since last Monday, the teachers have been working on ways that we can continue to support your child whilst the school remains closed. As a result, we have developed an online learning platform using Google Classrooms which we feel will help to meet the needs of you and your child at home. Here’s what you need to do:
Most of the content won’t go live until Monday 6th April but please sign up before the weekend so your child’s teacher can assign the tasks correctly.
If you have any problems at all, please email me at courage@kilburn-jun.derbyshire.sch.uk. I will be available over the weekend to assist you with any issues you might experience logging on to the classroom.
We have planned to use the Easter holidays as a trial period for the classroom. Each class teacher has set a number of Easter based activities for your child, as well as other activities that you can try at home. As you can appreciate, the staff themselves have been on quite a steep learning curve over the last week or so and we would value your input going forward so we can make it as effective as possible. Please leave comments for your child’s teacher regarding:
Your child’s teacher will respond to your comments as soon as possible.
After the Easter holidays, we are looking to deliver more in the way of resources that you and your child can complete online. Your comments will be valuable in order to help us achieve this.
Stay safe everybody and I look forward to seeing you register over the coming days,
Richard Gordon.
Well done team Resilience, great to hear about super home learning. Here are some delicious

It is easy to enter the challenge Team Resilience, google search draw with Rob and choose the Gregosaurus, create then send a photo to resilience@kilburn-jun.derbyshire.sch.uk. Get creative!
Photos continue to come through by e-mail, showing the great work happening at home. Fantastic work everyone, keep it up. We will have some super clever children when we all return to school. It is so lovely to hear about all the extra learning you are doing too, and exciting events in your lives - check out the new puppy coming to Sam's home soon.
Team Resileince have been very busy learning at home. They have been completing their booklet; engaging in new tasks; exploring space; and enjoying a daily workout. Keep up the great learning,
