Thank you to everyone who came to share our annual 'Bring Your Mum To School Afternoon'. We had a glorious afternoon enjoying a range of fun activities together!! We hope you all had a lovely time!

We would like to say a huge thank you to all of the families who very kindly prepared and served traditional cuisine from their own cultures during our fantastic 'International Food Fair' after school yesterday. We all enjoyed trying delicious foods from across the globe!!

Year 1 have been looking at the work of British Sculptor Andy Goldsworthy, who uses a range of natural materials to create amazing sculptures! In small groups the children recreated these scuptures adding their own artistic twist. We think you'll agree that they are wonderful!

Huge well done to Crocodiles class for winning the Smartie tube challenge set by our Friends Association! They won a great selection of new books for their class book box! Thank you to everyone who took part! 👏

Year 1 enjoyed meeting Gary Barlow, Whitney Houston, Mr Bilbow, Ti Ti and Matilda today! Ask your child if they can remember who/what they are!!😉 We learnt how to classify them and what they need to survive. It was a great learning experience for everyone!🐜🕷️🐍🐌

These are just some of the wonderful pictures produced by the children in our art after school club during the past half term! Well done to all the staff and children involved they are absolutely fantastic!!

We all enjoyed a lovely Christingle service led by Reverend Mike Morris this morning. The children listened very well to the story of Christmas and learnt that the Christingle symbolises Jesus as being the "Light of the World".

Children across the whole school celebrated Remembrance Day this year by using a range of different media to create a beautiful soldier and poppy display, which can be found in our main entrance. Please come and take a look at our fantastic Art work!

Wow!! Well done to all the children and staff involved in our Art Club, which takes place on Thursdays after school, for making such delicious artwork! I think you'll agree it looks good enough to eat! 😉🎨🖌️
