  • Year 5 Latest News

    Tue 28 Jun 2022

    Year 5 have had a busy few weeks. 

    The trip to Skegness last week was brilliant. The children really enjoyed themselves and it was great seeing them playing on the beach. The visit to the ice cream van was definitely worth the walk! 

     

    Both classes have now visited the allotment in Stapleford, where they were able to explore and take part in pond dipping activities and a mini beast hunt. On both visits, they found a variety of creatures! 

     

    We were really impressed with the effort that everyone put in to their events during sports day on Tuesday. They showed great determination. 

     

    Well done to 5O, who have now finished their swimming lessons. The children have made great progress and they will receive their certificates soon.

     

    Next week, we have our slumber party to look forward to!

    It has been another action-packed week in Year 4 with Sports Day being able to take place on a beautifully sunny day and the Summer Fayre on Thursday afternoon. Well done to all the pupils who took part in a sporting event and thank you parents for coming to see our wonderful children:-)

    We have also finished our Viking, Electricity and DT topics (the children loved making their torches) and have started the final topics of the year- The British Isles and Sound. Next week we will start our new DT topic (making sandwiches- yum yum!).

    Mon 20 Jun 2022

    Year 4s have had an action packed 2 weeks with residential at Beaudesert, Staffordshire, for three days last week, where 28 children had the opportunity to zip line, climb monkey tree, crate stack as high as possible, learn how to fence and much more. This week, beautiful weather was booked and our trip to Skegness was amazing, blue sea, blue skies and golden sand- perfect!. Now we are looking forward to starting our new topics of the British Isles (Geography) and Sound  (Science).

  • Year 3 Latest News

    Mon 20 Jun 2022

    Year 3 had an absolutely brilliant day in Skegness. They walked along the sand to the pier to buy an ice-cream and on the way back they did a beach scavenger hunt. They then had lunch and after that play a great game of rounders where some of the children were so determined to run a fast rounder they fell onto the beach. We had great fun. We then had a sandcastle competition and it brought a tear to my eye to see them all having such fun. They were really well behaved on the bus and no-one was ill! I couldn’t be prouder of Year 3 as it was a big adventure for them. I wonder if Mrs.Goffin will do it next year? Fingers crossed.

  • Year 6 Latest News

    Fri 10 Jun 2022

    We hope everyone had a lovely half term break.  It is hard to believe it was only a week ago.  The children have settled back in to school well.  Due to the short last half term, we have been finishing off our science and geography topics this week ready to start rivers and the human body next week.  Not long to go until the great Albany Adventure to Skegness - it is going to be fantastic.  The children were given a letter about Summer Camp this week.  We are really looking forward to it but really need the reply slips back ASAP.
