What a great occasion, team work is dream work.
We were delighted to welcome Paralympian, David Hill, to Restormel last week to support the official opening of our new outside space.
David then ran an activity with pupils, ‘Capture the Flag’ on our new MUGA. There was tactic, healthy competition and skill on fine display for all.

Amazing well done 😊
A massive well done to Cedar class and thanks to everyone who has supported their cause. Our donation of £61.20 has ensured that six families will get essential hygiene supplies for three months. What a wonderful gesture which will have a real impact on the communities.

I can smell the beautiful smells of a wet forest through those pics 😊
A wet but wonderful Forest School session today. We are so lucky to have use of our fantastic woods.
Pupils built shelter from the rain, made a fire and enjoyed s’mores, explored the acres and were even met by some friendly horses on the way back to school.

It’s been a particularly busy week in school with lots of different key events. Every class has marked Anti-Bullying Week with activities based on a different theme each day. How wonderful is this poster, made by one of our lovely Sycamore students?!

🥉We would like to extend our congratulations to George in Year 10, who did amazingly in his jujitsu competition this weekend. He was pushed up two age categories which meant he was against 16/17 year olds and still walked away with a bronze medal! Well done George and keep up the great work!🥉
