Y5 had a brilliant Forest School session today—working together, exploring nature, and learning around the fire. Mud under boots, rain whispering low, yet in our circle small bright flames grow. Sticks crack, sparks dance, warmth in the grey— nature and fire teaching us today.

Year 6 Leaver Hoodies now available!

Year 5 loved making Christingles today 🍊🕯️ A chance to reflect, create, and talk about light, hope, and generosity. Proud of the care and thought they put into every one ✨

Year 3 have been creating their own plants from junk in English, and then writing about what makes their plant unusual. Some extremely creative ideas, and thankfully they don’t exist in real life! This is all from our module on the ‘Wilderness’ story book. 🌱🪴🫛

Year 3 have written a poem and a letter this week in our writing lessons, based upon our ‘Wilderness’ book. In maths we have moved on to multiplication. Geography is based on mountains, when does a hill become a mountain? In PE we are performing gymnastics! 🗻🤸

This week Reception have had a very busy week making their own fireworks and even being a fire cracker themselves. A lot of us spoke about how we saw the fireworks and how beautiful the colours were….. it was very loud though! 🎆🎇

The rain didn’t stop Reception from having fun! We all wore very bright colours for Children In Need. #ChildrenInNeed 💛😁😊
