Wow! What a fantastic event! Huge thanks to Friends for arranging, for everyone who helped in advance and on the day to pull the event together and everyone who attended. Highlights included the tomblola, craft stalls, candyfloss machine, tin can game run by Evie, face painting, guess the staff member from their baby pictures, bash the rat, coconut shy and of course the cafe and raffle!

This week, Year 6s enjoyed a visit to Lifeskills in Bristol, where they took part in an interactive safety and personal development experience set within a realistic “indoor village”. Through a range of practical scenarios, the children learned how to recognise risks, make safe and responsible choices, and prepare for the move to secondary school. They approached each challenge with maturity, demonstrating excellent teamwork, empathy and problem-solving skills. The Lifeskil

What an unusual weather week it's been! From heat to storms, it's been a week like no other.

It's been another soggy week, but each class has been busy, busy, busy! Our Christian value for the term is compassion. In celebration assembly this week, we talked about why we show compassion. Jesse suggested that if we show compassion to other people, they will show compassion to us. We discussed the quote " Compassion is at the heart of everything we do...to lose our compassion is to lose what it is to be human", and then watched a video about a person who showed compass

Rehearsals for Pirates of the Curry Bean are in full swing in Oak Class, and the children have thrown themselves into the process with brilliant enthusiasm. This week they’ve been focusing on character development – experimenting with movement, position on stage, comic timing and voice projection to bring their roles to life. Next week, we’ll be in the creative scenery and props. Cardboard, paint and plenty of imagination as we begin to build the stage. A huge thank you to
