Today, we were delighted to welcome members of our Governing Body into school for Governors' Day!
Governors enjoyed visiting classrooms and seeing the fantastic learning taking place across the school. In the afternoon, they met with our Pupil Voice groups, who confidently shared their ideas and experiences of school life.
There were some brilliant answers when the children were asked what they would do if they were Headteacher for the day we may have some future school leaders among us! โญ๐๐
This week, the children in EYFS had great fun in the mud kitchen, creating mud pies, soups, and cakes using natural materials. They worked together, shared ideas, and used their imaginations brilliantly. Well done, EYFS! ๐ฟ๐ฅฃ๐ฉ๐ณ๐จ๐ณ
As part of our reflection in Year 6, the children were invited to create their own prayer pebbles. Each pebble represents a prayer, thought or intention, and the children placed them around our class saint as a reminder that our faith and prayers are part of the foundations we build our lives upon. ๐ชจ๐
Year 1 in Forest School, the children enjoyed making their very own conker soap. Using natural ingredients including conkers, lemons and lavender, they watched as the mixture was carefully boiled over a fire that they helped to build.
Once the soap was ready, the children used it to clean some of our Forest School equipment and wash their hands. It smelled wonderful!
It was a fantastic hands-on learning experience, helping the children discover how natural ingredients can be transformed into something practical and useful. A great Forest School session enjoyed by all!
We wish each and every one of you every success and happiness as you begin your next adventure. Good luck, Year 6! You will always be a cherished part of our school family, and we look forward to hearing about all the incredible things you will achieve in the years ahead. Remember to believe in yourselves, embrace every opportunity, and never stop aiming high. We are so proud of you and know your future is full of exciting possibilities.

The children enjoyed a lovely walk to the post box this morning and were a credit to the school. Thank you to Netti’s mum for helping us.
Along the way, we practised our road safety skills and looked out for landmarks that we can use when creating maps later.
The children were excited to post their Father’s Day cards and sent them on their way with a kiss! ๐๐
Keep an eye on the post – they should be arriving soon!
We had a fantastic day on our Victorian school trip! The children experienced life in a Victorian classroom, tried on traditional clothing, and learned what school was like in the past.
They were a credit to our school throughout the day, showing excellent manners and behaviour. We were very proud of them!
The children in Year 2 have used their wonderful talents to create stunning Pentecost artwork ๐๏ธ.
