It was so lovely to welcome so many family members from EYFS and Year 1 to our early reading meeting and phonics session. We talked about the importance of sharing books at home and the children loved showing off their reading and phonics activities. 😊

Well done to this superstar for winning the Dino - Treks competition where children from local primary schools were asked to sketch dinosaurs travelling actively. This design was chosen to be put into local parks in the county to form a Dino T-rek trail.

We have had the best time at our colour run today. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and it was just lovely to see this. An added bonus was that 2 teachers had gunge tipped over them at the end of the colour run. It was an exciting assembly to see who was chosen.

Year 5 have had a great time in DT, designing and making their own pasta sauce. They have evaluated other products, practiced knife skills finally used their preparation skills to complete the Bolognaise sauce. With their own marketing on the side, jars of sauce made it home.

Mrs Santy loves spending time with the children who have earned the weekly certificate. It is fantastic to hear how much they enjoy school and what school is like for them both in and out of the classroom. It is also great to share a treat together!
