Last week, our Ducklings enjoyed a very exciting sports morning as we headed across to the Three Hills to join the Play Leaders from Turner Free School. The children had the opportunity to explore 14 different activity stations, each carefully designed to get them moving, active and having lots of fun. Throughout the morning, the children developed their gross motor skills as they practised bouncing and catching balls, stacking speed cups, running and jumping and dribbling an

Before Christmas, the children took part in a wonderfully creative Artist Day, which blossomed into a truly special festive event for our whole school community. During the day, each class learned about a famous artist, explored their unique style, and used this inspiration to design and create their own beautiful Christmas tree decorations. These unique pieces of artwork were then displayed on Christmas trees throughout the church for our after-school Christmas Tree Trail. S

Our Year Six class were lucky enough to have a visit from the Child-Centered Police Unit today, they came to speak to us about staying safe online! Our chat began with a question – “How many of you have access to online devices?”  It was nearly all of us! From phones, Ipads, Xbox, Playstations - the list was endless, we couldn’t believe it. During our lesson today we learnt all about: How can we keep ourselves safe online The fact that once something is sent, nothing is ever

Today the whole school went to our local cinema, Silver Screen, to watch Zootopia 2. We were very lucky to still be able to visit this side of Christmas as the cinema has been closed for ages to accommodate some building works, they just re-opened in time for us this morning. Everyone had a great time and were extremely well behaved.

During this term more children have had the opportunity to go reading with our Glendale buddies. We really appreciate the time that they give up to hear our children read and the children I take always say they have enjoyed themselves.

Year 1 had a lovely time at Beach School last week whilst the winter sun was shining. The children explored the beach and discovered crabs hiding under rocks. They worked together to make crab hotels using stones, shells and seaweed, thinking carefully about how to keep the crabs safe and comfortable. Some children also enjoyed writing their phonic sounds in the sand, practising their learning in a fun outdoor way. It was a fun and exciting morning of outdoor learning by the

This week, Year 5 and 6 took a trip down to The Quarterhouse for an author workshop. The book was Dragonborn written by Struan Murray. He explained how a lot of his ideas for his novels come from small doodles and a big imagination! The session ended with the children taking part in a 'What type of dragon are you?' quiz and they created a dragon to reflect their results. It was a very inspiring session and the children participated and listened beautifully.

Yesterday afternoon, the children in Ducklings' Class were thrilled to welcome their grown-ups for a fun-filled rocket-making session. Together, children and adults followed step-by-step instructions from a visual task board, which included helpful picture symbols to support understanding. The room was full of excitement as everyone worked together to design and build their own rockets. This creative activity was not only enjoyable but also a wonderful opportunity to focus on
