Fri 26 May 2023Wow! What a fabulous end to the term. Thank you so much for supporting us with raising money for our Swinpup. Well done on dressing up and turning out in force for our dog show. It was lovely to see so many of you supporting the event.
It has been a very busy term and the children deserve a well earned break. If you are on the road to a high streak on doodle, keep going. We have a few children that will reach 365 days by the time that we return - well done.
Housepoints. All houses have earned enough points this term to have 15 minutes extra break today, plus enough for everyone to receive a house pencil and to have a non-school uniform day. Therefore, the first Monday back will be a non-school uniform day for everyone.

The first week back Mr Hatcliffe, Mrs Knott and I are taking our Y6 pupils to Berlin for the week, so there will be no Headteacher Blog as I will not return until late on Friday evening.
Year 1 will be in the final preparations for the phonics screening check which is the following week Monday 12th June.
I hope you have a lovely half term break and enjoy the glorious weather that we are having.
See you all on Monday 5th June.

Fri 19 May 2023I cannot believe another week has passed and we are now entering the final week of term. There is no topic celebration this term, as our Y2 pupils prepare for their SATs and teacher assessment activities.
We had HSBC working with our key stage two pupils looking at how to be wise with money, I did pop in and see some of the children talking about how they would make sure that they are using money wisely.

Fri 05 May 2023What a super week we have had here at school. All classes have been learning about the history of the Coronation and what will be happening at the weekend with King Charles III. Ask your child what their class have been doing this week to learn about our Monarchy.
We have also had an Inspector in school looking at our Geography as a subject review and although we do not get a report, they were very impressed with our Geography curriculum and the way that the subject leaders know what needs doing and the way we plan and assess the curriculum for substantive knowledge. Well done to Mrs Harris and Mrs Jenkins for leading the subject and well done to all the children who were asked about their learning.

Next week our Y6 pupils sit their end of Key Stage tests. Good luck to you all, I am sure that you will all do a wonderful job. You have worked hard over your time in school, so this is just one way of showing how great you are.
We also have our Berlin parent information evening this week, so if your child is going to Berlin in June, please come along to the Y6 classroom and we will go through the week with you.
That is is from me this week. Have fun celebrating the King's coronation and we will see you Tuesday morning.
