• Head Boy and Head Girl

  Fri 23 Oct 2015

  Just before half term some of the children in Y4 applied for the position of head boy and girl. I have to say, we were so impressed. Not only did they have to apply for the post but then they had to attend an interview panel with the senior leadership team. It was a rigorous system and they should all be proud of themselves.

  All of the year four children are encouraged to take a job throughout the school as part of their personal development.

  We held a very successful Christmas Fayre and Quiz night on Thursday 4th December at 6pm.  All the children made Christmas Crafts, which were for sale on the night and we had a raffle, Chocolate tombola, cake stall and Children's Lucky Dip. There were lots of lovely refreshments too. The Christmas Quiz was fun too, with the winning team taking home their festive box of biscuits. We raised  £ 895.60.

  Clubs are proving to be a huge success again- children are making a treasure chest in Art and DT club, making embossed bookmarks in creative craft club, putting their acting skills to good use in drama club and the sports club is proving very popular as children just love being in our fantastic hall using the badminton net, the table tennis and much more! Our Zumba club and Friday sports clubs are thoroughly enjoyed by all the children throughout the school and a sure way to get everybody active! 

• Sports Relief

  Fri 21 Mar 2014

  Children and staff had an energetic start to the day on Friday 21st March- completing a 'fun run' around the school field which included running, dancing, walking and skipping. This was to support Sports Relief as children were asked to dress in sports clothes and donate £1.

  Later in the day, each class participated in a range of sporting activities such as penalty shoot out, long jump and dancing.

  A big thank you to Mr Jackson, our PE teacher for organising the activities on this day.

  We raised a total of £88 which is fantastic. Comic relief spends half of all the money that is raised for Sports Relief in the UK to help a wide range of people, from vulnerable young carers to isolated older people and many others. The other half is used to help transform lives in some of the world's poorest countries.

• World Book Day!

  Wed 05 Mar 2014
  World Book Day! 
  We had a fantastic day on Thursday- everybody had made such an effort to dress up as their favourite book character. We had lots of activities planned for the day that included designing a book mark, writing book reviews, designing a front cover with the blurb and a 'drop everything and read'. Each class has also made some brilliant 'big-art' which will be displayed in the small hall, so keep a look out for this!
  Well done everybody on making it such a fun day!
