We finished the end of term with an Easter Assembly. Parents, grandparents and friends of the school joined us for songs, poems and readings. Swans retold the Easter story, Owls read some of their own poems, including an Easter rap; Woodpeckers told the story of ‘We’re going on an Easter Egg hunt’ and re-told the […]
Over 20 children took to the slopes for another series of ski lessons. Lots of the children were skiing from the top, some were flying over the ‘moguls’ (bumps), but most importantly all the children learnt new skills and had a fantastic time – and can’t wait for the next set of lessons !
As part of our DT work, the Swans designed and made dairy and nut free ginger biscuits. We based our designs around Easter. We also brought in our Maths work on ratio, as we had to double the quantities given in the recipe. The results were delicious!
The children in Kingfisher Class hosted the assembly this week and told the parents and the rest of the school what they had learnt about Spring. The children shared their work, which included checklists of items found in spring, sentences about what they see in spring, ‘what am I’ poems of spring items, measuring daffodils with rulers, paintings […]

7 children from the Swans class were recently involved in a 2-day Bikeability course. They learnt some basic manoeuvres and also how to ride their bike safely on the road, showed an awareness of potential hazards and also demonstrated a basic understanding of the Highway Code.

The children got actively involved collecting sticks for the fire. Leanne told the children how to make a fire and the children listened and watched carefully. During the session the […]
Last week the Woodpeckers shared their learning in front of the school and parents. The children retold the story of Noah’s Ark using actions and shared their own versions of the 10 commandments. The children also shared some of their wonderful recounts based on World Book Day and celebrated their achievements. Well done!
Today children and mums (and grandmums) enjoyed a belated Mother’s Day lunch. Rachel, the cook, prepared a roast chicken dinner followed by sticky toffee pudding and custard. There were lots of empty plates and very full tummies! It was lovely seeing so many of you join us for this special lunch.
The Kingfisher Class visited Hall Farm today looking for signs of Spring. The children followed the farm trail and they saw daffodils, buds on trees, lambs and calves. The children were allowed to feed the baby lambs using a bottle of milk; they really enjoyed doing this and the lambs were very hungry. The children also visited the café […]
It was the turn of Owls class to host the assembly on Friday. The children shared some poetry work, including Kennings and list poems and they also performed ‘A Dinosaur Rap’. The newest additions namely Fudge & Dusty (the class rats) made an appearance and the children explained how to care for them. They also […]
Our Ancient Egyptian topic involved learning about the mummification process. We used toilet rolls to practise mummifying different members of the Owls Class. We also learnt about pyramids and built our own using Minecraft.
