We had great fun this afternoon orienteering completing timed challenges! Despite the tiredness from camp, Harrison and Charlie from Crew Knowles came first out of the whole school with an incredible time of 3mins 41 seconds!! They were closely followed by Macky and Junior with an amazing time of 3mins 51 seconds! Well done boys – smashed it!
I wanted to share some wonderful home learning from Charlotte in Year 4. Over the holidays, Charlotte carefully crafted a stunning picture of the Colosseum using small tiles to create a detailed mosaic.
Her creativity, patience and attention to detail are clear to see — it is a truly impressive piece of work! The mosaic has already sparked great interest and discussion in class, making it the perfect talking point to kick off our brand-new expedition on the Romans.
Well done, Charlotte — what a fantastic way to start our year!
Please join us for our Year 5/6 family learning event on Wednesday 3rd September 2-3pm! Our family learning session will involve orienteering outdoors and we can’t wait!
A huge thank you to Time and Plaice who provided our tea completely free of charge at our Year 5 camping event! We are so grateful for your kindness and generosity and the children said the food was better than Gordon Ramsay’s! Thank you!
Please note – you can also access dates through the Parent Calendar on the website in advance:
The clubs brochure and forms are almost ready for the autumn term! However, we are now ready to announce that the production this year will be……….
Just like last year when we prepared for the Wizard of Oz, the children will need to sign up to all 3 clubs on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
After the successes of Wizard of Oz, we can’t wait to see where this production takes us this year! We also hope to gain some additional cast members this year!
Watch out for the clubs lists!
Another smashing day in our new class! Smores and singing in Camp Green Top with Mr Kershaw, more craft activities with our wonderful Young Learning Coaches – who are already proving invaluable – and our proud postcard winners, Rueben and Lennox. More of the same tomorrow kids? Don’t mind if I do!
On Thursday 4th September, all KS1 children are invited to come to school dressed as a favourite superhero of their choice. We have been learning about heroes in the local community so they may wish to consider these, such as police officers and nurses, or they may opt for their favourite fictional superhero instead. Costumes do not have to be bought – be creative with the things you already have at home!
Parents and carers are then invited to join us on the Key Stage 1 playground from 1.30pm where you will be able to enjoy a range of superhero themed activities (trainers a must, capes and masks optional!)
We do hope you will join us and we can’t wait to see you all then.
