Thank you to our School Council for organising a fantastic Children in Need day! They planned three exciting activities to help raise money for this amazing charity. Children and staff came dressed as superheroes or in something yellow or spotty. This year’s theme was ‘Challenge 25’, and throughout the week pupils were encouraged to take on a fun challenge linked to the number 25—such as doing 25 star jumps each day, reading for 25 minutes, completing 25 kind acts, or even wr

We have been learning about Remembrance and taking the time to reflect on sacrifices that were made by soldiers and those affected by war both past and present. We focused on the importance of peace, community and gratitude. We created our own poppies and laid them outside as a symbol of respect. We also created poppy artwork.

Across school we have been learning about Bonfire Day and why it is a key Historical event in British History.  We focused on Guy Fawkes and learnt about the Gunpowder Plot and why he is such a significant Historical figure. We added this to our class timelines to identify when in History this key event took place. We enjoyed then using this learning to create Bonfire pictures using different media. Year 3 children delved into an exciting extract from You Wouldn’t Want to Be

Our Year 6 pupils led a moving Remembrance Day assembly to honour the courage and sacrifice of those who have served in conflicts past and present. Through readings and reflective performances, the children shared messages of peace, gratitude, and remembrance. They demonstrated great maturity and respect as they helped the whole school understand why it is so important to remember. We are incredibly proud of the empathy and thoughtfulness shown by all of our Year 6 pupils dur

We have had a brilliant week of learning all about bonfire night 🔥  We had the best bonfire day, making our own fire, learning about fire safety, toasting apples, making editable sparklers and enjoying some hot chocolate with campfire songs ☕️🍏🔥🔥

As part of Anti-Bullying Week 2025, our children took part in thoughtful discussions about the importance of kindness, respect, and standing up for others. Each class created their own Kindness Agreements, setting out promises on how they will work together to make everyone feel valued, safe, and included. The children shared wonderful ideas about how small acts of kindness can make a big difference — showing that at our school, kindness really does matter every day. Use the

Today our school was full of colour, fun, and LOTS of odd socks as we celebrated Odd Socks Day 2025 to kick off Anti-Bullying Week! Everyone joined in – pupils and teachers came to school wearing bright, bold, spotty, stripy, and wonderfully mismatched socks. Odd Socks Day is all about celebrating what makes us unique. It reminds us that being different is something to be proud of – because that’s what makes our school such a special place. We also talked about the importance

A big well done to our School Council for their fantastic efforts in supporting the Poppy Appeal with poppy sales!

This week we have enjoyed singing all of our favourite Nursery Rhymes with each other and with schools within our trust. Lots of our language development comes from learning our nursery rhymes which makes it a very important part of our learning ☺️ We all came to school with our odd socks on Monday to show we are all different in special ways. We did lots of learning about how we are all special and how to be kind to each other 😃

We were very lucky to welcome The Stringcredibles  — a quartet of world-class orchestral musicians — and Nate Holder, a professional saxophonist and award-winning author! Their incredible show, The Butterfly Lands , took us on a magical journey of migration, told through the metaphor of a butterfly. The story followed the butterfly’s travels across different islands, exploring music, language, faith, clothing, and food — and celebrating how diversity brings richness and beaut

What an amazing adventure! Today, our children were transported back in time to the fascinating world of the Stone Age. We built roaring fires and baked our own bread (which was absolutely delicious!). The children practised hunting skills with bows, arrows, and spears, and worked together to create shelters using only natural resources—just like real Stone Age people. For the ultimate challenge, we teamed up to move heavy stones using logs and rope, just as they did to build

Our Rocksteady musicians are hard at work rehearsing for their December performance.

Children from Year 2 to Year 6 took part in The ‘ Chance to Shine’ programme. This provides children with an introduction to cricket while developing life skills like teamwork and communication.

Our school was filled with colour, music, and excitement as we celebrated Diwali – the Festival of Lights! Some of our children came dressed in beautiful traditional costumes, bringing a vibrant splash of culture to the day. The sounds of the dhol drums echoed through the school as children joined in the rhythms. Creative hands were busy making clay diva lamps, Diwali cards, and stunning rangoli patterns using bright colours and designs. It was a wonderful celebration that he

Thank you to all the parents/carers who attended Nursery reading workshops. We hope you found them useful in supporting your child at home.
