This week has been very short and quick, but also lots of fun.

We have enjoyed continuing with our story Room on the Broom; acting out our own versions of the story and even making our own spells up. The apple group made a superb spell up to make the night sky full of bright twinkly stars. We…

Sunshine class really have worked their socks off this week. We have spent the majority of the week in our key groups focussing on really specific areas. We have enjoyed the new indoor and outdoor classroom layout which has been set up with challenges to develop our speech and communication…

Reading tests in year two and one are complete now and once again, the children have worked incredibly hard. It was particularly lovely to hear such beautiful, ‘pure’ phonemes as the children sounded out the words they were looking for, it was really great to see and hear.

For the challenge…

A big well done to all our footballers who took part in the recent Year 5 and 6 Kids Cup at Play Football. We all had a great afternoon and a big thank you to all the parents who came along to support us. A extra big thank you to Jack Fannon who came along in his role as Head Boy to help take…
