We have loved seeing all the children in class today come in wearing their different class colours for our special 'The Day The Crayons Quit' day organised by Mrs Blinston Jones, to tie in with the children's English work.

Red Nose Day fun and games!
Fri 19 Mar 2021Red Nose Day fun and games!
The school has been a sea of red today with everybody wearing something red for Comic Relief and Red Nose Day! We raised £152, so thank you for your donations and well done everyone.
Lots of staff took part in the Red Nose and Spoon Challenge around school. They had to carry it with them everywhere they went and had to do a forfeit if they forgot. After lunch there was a Nose and Spoon race - well done to Mrs Blinston Jones of Poppy Class who easily won the race!

Garden of Hope
Wed 17 Mar 2021Wellbeing 'Garden of Hope'
Last Friday Nathan in Tulip Class and I took delivery of a new Arbour, bamboo, jasmine and lavender plants to make a start on a new wellbeing 'Garden of Hope' in the school playground. This was because of an idea Nathan had to create a peaceful, reflective space in the playground where children could enjoy quiet time by themselves or with a friend. We look forward to showing you more photos as the 'Garden of Hope' develops.

Rescheduled World Book Day
Mon 01 Mar 2021World Book Day
Rescheduled for Thursday 1st April
It will be World Book Day on Thursday 4th March - but as we will not all be in school together on this day, we have decided to put it on hold until we are!
Our Endowed Rescheduled World Book Day celebrations will instead be taking place on the last day of Term 4,
Thursday 1st April
This means the whole school will be able to dress up and join in the celebrations together. So do please put a note in your diary - and get thinking of costumes of your favourite book characters whilst you still have lots of time to get your outfits ready!
A letter with more information will be sent out soon.
Mrs Blinston Jones, English Lead
