September 2019 - Garden Transformation!

 

We are really excited to be able to show you the fantastic work that Franco and the local McDonald's team have been doing in the garden over the summer. They have completely transformed the whole space and we know that the children will love working in their new outdoor classroom... As usual, there are more photographs of the whole transformation on our Twitter feed.

11th March 2019 - Science Week Launch 2019

 

On Monday we received another video from Dr. Peter Idish. Can it really be a whole year since Science Week 2018? Peter told the classes some of the things they would be looking at over the week and even had time to visit the rainforest! More photos from the week will be available on the Twitter feed throughout the week.

7th March 2019 - World Book Day 2019

 

On Thursday we celebrated World Book Day in school.  It was fantastic to see so many children involved in the day and their costumes looked brilliant. Children took part in hot-seating sessions, where they took on the role of their chosen character. We also rang the school bell to signal very special DROP EVERYTHING AND READ sessions. The teachers switched classes to read extracts from some of their favourite stories and we launched a special World Book Day competition...
