Year 2 had a 'sandsational' time at Weston-super-Mare yesterday, building castles, sharing giggles and enjoying yummy ice cream! Not even a small bit of rain could dampen our spirits! The cherry on top? The shopkeeper praised all of the children’s super manners! Lots and lots of memories of were made - what a day to 'sealibrate'!🌊 🏝️

This week Year 2 had an exciting and educational visit from the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), who taught us all about staying safe near water. The children learned how to spot safety flags at the beach, explored different types of life jackets, and even dressed up a classmate as a lifeguard! It was a fun, hands-on session that gave our pupils a deeper understanding of the important work the RNLI does and how to enjoy the water safely.

Each week, during our Friday Achievement assembly, we celebrate our ‘Pupils of the Week’ from each year group. Pupils are recognised for this weekly award for a variety of reasons and are nominated by their class teacher. They may have excelled in a particular subject through the week; may have shown one, or more, of the school values in abundance, or they may have impressed their teacher, or other staff members with a huge amount of effort. Whatever they are nominated for, they are recognised in the whole school achievement assembly, receive a certificate to take home and get to wear one of our prestigious black and gold t-shirts. 
During the assembly, we also celebrate children who have 100% attendance for the week and have been in school every day on time. A lucky dip, of all children who are eligible takes place, and one pupil walks away with £5 to spend on whatever they want, Standards and presentation of a child’s book, chosen at random, are also reviewed and celebrated with the school and the child, whose book has been chosen, has the chance to win a dip out of the basket of goodies, as long as they have used their best handwriting every day, completed their feed forward marking and taken care in the presentation of their date and learning objective. We are extremely proud of all of the efforts of our pupils and the Friday Achievement assembly recognises this pride.

On Tuesday and Wednesday this week, both Year 5 classes had the opportunity to visit Dovedale in the Peak District as part of our learning on our Rivers topic. Children had to challenge themselves by walking up to the top of Thorpe Cloud and then enjoyed a leisurely walk by the river taking in the scenery and identifying the different parts of a river we had learnt about in class

On the 20^th May, some of our Year 6 children embarked on the trip of a lifetime to Paris! They travelled by coach and enjoyed a first day of swimming and at The Explorers Hotel. On the Wednesday, the children experienced city life and travelled the River Seine by boat before climbing the 700 steps of the Eiffel Tower. All children made it to the top and it was an amazing experience for all of the children, who showed excellent perseverance to make it to the top. On the Thursday, it was time for Disneyland, where more children faced their fears. After being adventurous on all of the different rides, everyone enjoyed eating at the Rainforest Cafe before the firework and light show entertained us! On the final day, we travelled back by coach with all of our new Disney merchandise and memories to last a lifetime!
