On Tuesday, we had a visit from the Easter Bunny. The children took part in an easter egg hunt and were rewarded with a chocolate egg at the end. We would like to say a big thank you to Friends of School who purchased the eggs and volunteered their help with this event. Is it just us or does the Easter Bunny look suspiciously like Miss Williamson?

We have had a busy time on the playground today! The children have run a Pokémon treasure hunt and a football target game (with Pokéballs targets). We have also had the opportunity to do some football and Pokémon mindfulness colouring as part of this week's wellbeing Wednesday. #SchoolsFootballWeek #SFW2025

Our Ethos Committee has been working alongside Mrs Butler to design and create a quiet area that the children can use at break and lunch time. We would like to say a special thank you to Pete who works as part of our premises team and helped to put pieces together for us.

All of our children performed amazingly well and we are extremely proud of them for showing such passion and self-belief when performing.

Owls Class had a fun filled afternoon baking their final product. They split into three groups and took it in turns, following step by step instructions. The biscuits were all very unique. Thank you so much to our parent volunteers who helped us too.

LOVELY POST ALERT! Whilst talking to pupils about their reading books today, Mrs Cloud discovered that some of our children create personalised bookmarks for every book that they read. What a wonderful and creative idea.

Red Nose Day 2025 Today we invited children to come to school in non-school uniform with a red theme. Our play leaders ran sports challenges at lunch time which were based around the 40th anniversary of Comic Relief. We are taking donations on the gate and look forward to sharing how much we have raised. #rednoseday #rednoseday2025 #comicrelief2025

As part of Design and Technology, Owls Class have been busy thinking about the perfect biscuit. They have conducted some market research (including tasting various delicious biscuits), they have thought about the type of biscuit they want to make and have designed their own packaging. They are looking forward to budgeting next week and then finally getting to spend some time in the kitchen baking their product.
