  • Pupils of the Week

    Published 26/04/24

    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.

    M'Kai - REB

  • Amazing Nature Club!

    Published 26/04/24

    In the words of Mr Hobbis "I think the club sold out as quick as a Taylor Swift concert!" what a treat it has been! All of the Year 2 children behaved beautifully and took part in lots of different fun-filled nature activities. It was lovely for Miss Gibbs to spend some time with the previous Year 1's too!

  • The Not So Rotten Romans

    Published 08/04/24

    Today, Year 3 pupils stepped into the sandals of the ancient Romans!  In maths, they mastered Roman numerals. In guided reading, they discovered what the Romans wore. “I enjoyed finding out about what the Romans used to wear,” explained Aazil.

    In literacy, they wrote their names in Latin. The Latin alphabet only had 21 letters, so some names had letters missing! “Learning how to write my name was fun because it looked strange,” said Sophie.

    This afternoon, year 3 created their own Roman pottery. Did you know the Romans used pottery in everyday life, for carrying water? We designed our pots and then decorated them! “It was so enjoyable being able to make something,” announced Toby “I hope we get to do this again!”

  • Beautiful Butterfly Farm Trip

    Published 08/04/24

    Year 1 visited the Butterfly Farm in Stratford-Upon-Avon - We saw a variety of beautifully coloured butterflies, some of which even landed on us. We learned about the amazing life cycle of a butterfly and saw some of the world's largest and most camouflaged caterpillars, giant silk moths and their cocoons. When we visited the casing, we could see a butterfly beginning to hatch from its pupa! We had a fantastic time strolling through the wonderful world of the tropical, rainforest environment, with beautiful flowers, different animals, splashing waterfalls fish filled pools and even a crocodile! The children had a fantastic time exploring, playing and learning about lots of different creatures and minibeasts!
