Year 2 have settled straight back into the new term and have shown excellent focus on their new topics. We have enjoyed searching the school for 3D shapes. We have celebrated Eco Week by learning about how to help our local wildlife and making bird feeders!

✨ Our Reception stars shone so brightly today in their Whoops-a-Daisy Nativity! 🌟 From angels to shepherds, every child brought joy, laughter, and festive magic to the stage. We are so proud of them all! 🎄👼 #Nativity #Reception #ChristmasJoy

This afternoon Blossoms have enjoyed a lovely Autumnal walk around the school field. We went through the mud and grass then stopped to look at the scarecrows made by the school children.

Year 2 have had another amazing week, they enjoyed the Snow White pantomime and got involved with shouting out to the wicked step mother and singing along with lots of their favourite songs. They also had fun making playground toys in Science using different materials.

Christmas is in full swing in reception this week with decorating the class Christmas tree, creating beautiful crafts and a very funny pantomime.

Thank you to all our children and families for supporting our Reindeer Run and raising over £1,600 for St Clare’s Hospice!

Year 2 had an amazing time running in the Reindeer Run to support St Clare’s Hospice. Thank you for all your donations it is very much appreciated.

Year 1 went on a magical school trip to Audley end this week. This links wonderfully to our English book this half term 'The Polar Express'. The children had a great time and even got to meet someone very special !!!

This week in Snowdrop we had a fun-filled time exploring the song “5 Currant Buns.” After enjoying a range of creative and play-based activities throughout the week, we decided to finish with a very exciting experience, making real currant buns together!

🚀✨ Reception class blasted off—exploring the wonders of space through VR goggles. Tiny astronauts, big dreams! 🌌👩‍🚀👨‍🚀

Year 4 have absolutely loved using the VR headsets today! They explored the Titanic in incredible detail ahead of our new English unit next week and they are well and truly hooked! 🛳️✨ It was wonderful to see their excitement and we can’t wait to dive deeper into the topic.

Year Three demonstrated great resilience this week in DT. They created pop up scenes to develop the skills they will needs to create their own pop up books at the end of this half term.

Year 2 have worked hard this week at creating some amazing persuasive poster's to entice you to come to our bake sale on Wednesday 26th November, this an opportunity for us to raise money for the guide dog association. We look forward to seeing you then!

🚀 Our Reception class has been reaching for the stars! They've been exploring the wonders of the solar system and learning all about the moon 📷#EarlyYears #SpaceExploration #CuriousMinds

Year 6 were so lucky that Henry's dad offered to come in and give a talk all about WW2. We were fascinated to find out how much happened on our doorstep.

Year 4 had a great time last week at Colchester Castle 🏰

What a busy week we have had in Year 5! A huge well done to the whole year group for all their efforts this week- particularly with all the tests they have completed. No homework this week aside from TTRS and daily reading. Happy weekend all!
