Spinney Primary School

We are ready for #WorldBookDay2024 Treasure hunt will lead to all classes finding a book in the library! Looking forward to a day full of books, costumes and excitement together!

Y2 have had a very busy day! In the morning we investigated the edges and faces of 3-d shapes and this afternoon we explored which materials would be best for an umbrella! Lots of great predictions and conjectures were made.

Last Friday we had our Playground Opening Ceremony! Thank you for all who attended and for the amazing fundraising by the Friends of the Spinney!

Chocolate everywhere! Y5 and Y6 have been busy making their truffles in DT! They've enjoyed every minute!

We are incredibly excited about the playground project, phase 1, coming to end. Opening ceremony of the trim trail is on Friday! Can't wait!

Phase 1 of our playground project started yesterday! The trim trail will be installed this week! A massive thank you to the community for the fundraising.

Winter Fair was a success! Thank you Friends and all the volunteers as well as everyone who visited!

It’s almost time for our Winter Fair! Come and join us for an afternoon of fun at the school! We are grateful to our main sponsor Arkwright and Co for their support for the Winter fair!

Two weeks until our Winter Fair! Looking forward to a joyful day organised by the Friends of Spinney!

Celebrating Friendship and Anti-Bullying week this week. Here are some of the cards the Y6 mentors have done for their Reception class mentees!

Thank you to the volunteers from St Barnabas Church who came to tidy and rejuvenate our school garden!

The Spinney Page Turners met again at lunchtime for another discussion. This time about poetry!

We hosted our Stay and Create sessions for families today and the theme was Outdoor learning! All year groups had different activities to do outside. Thanks for everyone who joined!

Y2 have had a brilliantly busy day working on some new skills. We learned how to use an atlas to locate countries and we then learned how to use ten frames to identify number bonds to 20! We all worked brilliantly in our pairs.

Look at this brilliant artwork in Reception class!

Come work in a school full of enthusiastic children and committed staff! New School Business Manager and Receptionist vacancies are now open. More info on the school website. spinney-primary.secure-primarysite.net/vacancies-3/ RTs appreciated!

The Spinney postcard design competition has never been this popular! We received 75 designs. That's incredible! We could only choose 8 and the teachers had a tough time choosing. A huge thank you to all the artists! And can't wait to share the final postcards with you!

We don't just read in our English lessons but across the curriculum! A set of books linked to our humanities curriculum are now displayed in the school entrance!

Year 6 getting ready for our cycling session this morning at Grafham!

Spending the morning on the water- sailing, canoeing and stand up paddle boarding!
