Virtual Open Day Video

At this time of year we would normally be offering open days for prospective parents to come and have a look around our school. In light of current restrictions, we are unable to offer these events this year. Instead we have produced a virtual open day video - we hope that this gives a good feel for our school! 

For a chance to meet our Senior Leadership Team, we have two online Teams sessions available as part of our Virtual Open Day offerings. Please click here to book yourself into a session. Please note that to allow us time to organise this, this form closes on Monday 30th November at 12pm (noon).  

The Magic Box - a poem by Aadil, Class 2. Inspired by Kit Wright's poem.

Good morning everyone!

I hope you are well and are having a good start to your day. Did you know that BBC Bitesize have now got daily lessons for lots of age groups? There are different subjects and lots of videos and activities that you might find interesting.
You can find them here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/tags/z7s22sg/year-2-lessons/1

There's a great page with games which might help you with the Literacy work that I set for you today. It's all about verbs... https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zrqqtfr/articles/zpxhdxs

Have fun!

Thank you and well done!

Fantastic Y3 Writing

A huge well done to this Y3 child who achieved his pen license this afternoon. Mrs Menmuir and I were both VERY impressed with the presentation of his work.

The Journey

Mr Steggall was delighted to see Myriam today who came to show him the lovely creation she made at home after being inspired by The Journey last week.   Well Done!

Book Week - Year 5

Year 5 were brilliant when they performed the different scenes in the book 'The Journey' by Aaron Becker. We are very excited for our book week.

Magazines and pictures needed please Year 4

Dear Parents,

Tomorrow Year 4 will be writing poetry on the theme of ‘A view from the window’.

To help us gain inspiration, the children will be creating a mood board. For this we will need plenty of pictures from magazines, travel brochures and other colourful pictorial publications.

Please could you send them in with the children tomorrow?

Thank you for your help.

Remember that 13th September is Roald Dahl Day. There are plenty of easy and cheap home made costume ideas available on the Internet.

For example -

The big question is...... will Mr Winter wear his usual BFG ears? We will wait and see!
