Well done to our Netball team who took part in our High5 tournament at Bishop Barrington on Wednesday! You all did such a great job and should be very proud of yourselves! Especially your battle through the rain and hailstones!
We drew our final match against Toft Hill School 1-1 – a great result!
WOW! What an amazing WBD this year! Some wonderful costumes and great work going on in all classes. From bear hunts to zoo debates we all had such a busy day! Thank you for all your efforts this year.
Just a reminder, we are collecting the Sainsbury’s Active Kids vouchers. If you receive any whilst shopping please remember to bring them into school. The collection box is in Miss McGough’s room.
Also, a link to Our School Games just as a reminder of our up and coming sporting activities!

Thank you for all of your support once again at our Christmas Fayre.
Our classes worked really hard on producing their own stalls and we had some very helpful volunteers which we are extremely grateful for.
With your help we managed to have an excellent day… even Santa enjoyed himself participating in the ‘dab’.
What an amazing trip for Class 5 today! We were so lucky and got to visit the amazing staff at Durham University’s Palace Green Library to have a closer look at our topic of the Anglo Saxons. From looking at a variety of artefacts, learning about the Lindisfarne Gospels, dressing up as monks and creating our own incipit pages, a great day was had by all involved!
Thank you for our wonderful visit!
