Final call for crisp packets!

Thank you for all of your contributions of used crisp packets for the crisp packet project.

This will be the final week we will be collecting the crisp packets, so please continue to bring them in to school for us to send off at the end of the week. Friday will be the last day to bring them in.

Again, thank you all for your contributions to a great cause!

School Parliament

Last day of term

As you are all aware, our last day of this academic year is Monday 24th July 2023. To celebrate the end of the school year, we are having a summer celebration with the children, including our nursery children. Children will be able to come into school in dress down clothes. We will not be serving hot dinners on this day, but children can order school sandwiches or bring in their own packed lunch to enjoy at the picnic. The timings of the school day will remain the same. Please note that this is a statutory day; therefore, we expect to see all children as we would during the rest of the term.

Thank you

Our visit from a Harlem Globetrotter!

On Monday, the whole school were lucky enough to meet Britain’s tallest man and  the tallest basketball player in the world; Paul Sturgess. Paul has had a very impressive career playing basketball for Great Britain and for the Harlem Globetrotters, which our pupils loved hearing all about. All classes were also lucky  enough to have a basketball workshop with Paul.
However, asides from talking about his career, Paul had one very important message for our school… to embrace our differences and be proud of who we are! If Paul hadn’t embraced his height, he wouldn’t have found his passion for basketball and all of the  fantastic experiences that came with it!

Ice pops

On Thursday 15th and Friday 16th June, Year 6 children will be selling ice-pops at home time in order to raise money for Healthy Lifestyles Week. It will be 30p per lolly. Following feedback from last year’s event, we will have two stations. One station will be under the oak tree by the astro-turf pitch. The second station will be located by the Year 1 classrooms. Please be aware that we have limited freezer space in school and stock is therefore also limited. Please only buy the lollies you need so that everyone has a chance to buy one. If this proves popular, we will of course have further events like this. Thank you for your support.
