A week packed full of events 🌳🎨✍✨👏

The final week of this term has been packed full of so many things to celebrate and has been the perfect way to end such a busy term. The Art exhibition at Shine showcasing our children's artwork is wonderful, and I know staff have popped down with the children to see it. I visited with our Chair of Governors Julia Shemilt and...

The power to change lives

I know, like me, you will have been outraged and saddened by what has been happening in Ukraine over the past few weeks. It is hard to believe that in 2022 such a situation can arise. I am pleased that on Friday last week we did our bit to fund raise for the Comic relief fund. The powerful message for this year’s Red Nose Day is whatever we do, no matter how small,...

What a busy week!

After missing out in 2021, Year 6 completed 2022 KS2 Mock SATS week in style. Thank you to everyone for making this such as huge success, especially Mrs McMullen who masterminds the complex operation. 👏 I know this is another key step in making sure our children are ready for their tests in May.

Adding the love into learning

It certainly has been a seamless start to the new half term with every year group picking up where they left off in terms of high quality and interesting learning experiences - our children are so lucky to be in classes where staff spend so much time ensuring that every child loves learning. The smell of freshly cooked pancakes wafting along the corridor outside...

Wellbeing week 2022 🙂

Our third in school Wellbeing week has been so special and a lovely way to end this half term which has been incredibly busy and has not been without its challenges. Making time for one another and giving staff and children extra treats helps to make our school such a special place to be and serves as a reminder to us all why we do what we do. During this week...

Celebrating the Year 6 journey

Last Monday we shared with Year 6 a 'virtual' presentation in place of the annual Year 6 dinner which we would usually hold, when Year 6 children come with their parents to celebrate the beginning of their journey through Year 6. Sadly, due to Covid we have been unable to have such a large gathering of people in school and so found a way to do this remotely....

Inspirational 🌟😀

When children can't wait to talk to you about what they have been learning you know they have been inspired by the activities taking place in their classes.

Last week I was told all about an earthquake that had affected the annex building and caused disruption for Mrs Goodlad when she was marking after school. Year 4's theme is 'Natural Disasters - Would YOU...
