Today Kingfisher class walked to Hall Farm to do the farm trail. We were able to follow a map which Ann had drawn for us. Edward kindly took us around and we saw lots of different animals. We were even followed by a goat, Miss Jones thought she had a new child in her class! We […]
We are learning some basic skills in sewing club, including Miss Jones. We are having lots of fun, even when we keep having to re-thread the needle. Lots of patience needed all round.
Over the past few weeks in our whole school and class assemblies, we have been learning about Remembrance Day, the significance of ‘poppies’, the courage and bravery of those who worked and still work in the Armed Forces and the work of the British Legion too. At 11.00am on the 11th November, the whole school […]
Wednesday Evenings see 26 Owls and Swans, accompanied by Mr Bassett and Mrs Bilner, take to the slopes at the Suffolk Ski Centre. Lots of them are learning how to ski, how to ‘snow plough’, turn and stop safely. Others are perfecting their skiing skills on the main slope.
We received this certificate from the Colchester Foodbank saying ‘thank you’ for our food donations. Your kind contributions for our Harvest Assembly helped to provide 134 meals for people less fortunate than ourselves.
A massive thank you to all who contributed to our Macmillan Coffee Morning, we were able to donate £80.00 to this worthwhile cause.
As an end of term treat, the children enjoyed a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party courtesy of the PTA.
The ducklings have been an immense success with all the children and are now enjoying their moments of freedom on our pond! Catching them at the end of the day has proved very entertaining for anyone watching! Thank you to Mrs Martin for allowing to have them in school these last few weeks.
Year 6 are well under way to being ready to take their statutory tests in English and Maths in the week of May 11th. Please do encourage them to do the homework sent for the Easter holidays as it will be the starting point of the support club being run on Monday afternoons, starting on […]
On Thursday 12th February, I was fortunate enough to be able to join the Swans Class to watch the performance of Hansel and Gretel at the Mercury Theatre. It was an amazing experience and our children performing in the chorus were fantastic! Well done to you all. Our children in the audience were also wonderful—for […]
