We were so pleased to welcome lots of our F2 children’s grown ups into school today to learn a little bit more about our phonics programme.
Our children were happy and proud to share our activities with their adults and it was so lovely to see how engaged everybody was.
Thank you for your support and we hope that you all enjoyed it.

On Thursday (16th march) at 2pm there will be a phonics themed family learning session held in the hall. Please arrive at the school office for 2pm to sign in and collect your child.
All reception parents are invited to attend for an afternoon of phonics fun!
You will be able to join in with lots of early reading and writing activities and explore the FFT phonics scheme even further. The reception teaching team will be on hand to answer any questions and boost your confidence to support with phonics at home.
There will also be an additional session on Thursday the 23rd March at 2pm . We look forward to seeing you 🙂
Today marks the start of British Science Week and we can’t wait to get involved when we get back to school next week. Each crew will take part in a fascinating fingerprint investigation led by the school council. We will also have science club attending the coffee afternoon (Wednesday 15th) to share some of the exciting things we get up to at science club.
In the meantime, there are a few challenges you can get involved in at home and bring into school next week.
For Tuesday – Create a timeline of scientists through history. What are some of the greatest discoveries and who made them?
For Wednesday – Invent like a Victorian. Channel your inner inventor and design something to make life at home easier.
For Thursday – See and Eat Vegetables. Investigate the connection between how vegetables grow and how they end up on your plate.
You could also find your own investigations to try! Send any pictures of you being a scientist to your phase leaders. We can’t wait to see what you get up to!
The Reception children were all very excited when they arrived to school today to find out that some of their chicks had hatched early in the morning. They were very lucky to also watch some of the chicks hatch out of their eggs throughout the day. The best part of the day though was definitely all getting a little cuddle.
Below is a video of one of our chicks hatching.
The Big Battery Hunt is a nationwide battery recycling programme for schools funded by Duracell. Its aim is to increase the number of batteries currently being recycled in the UK. Pupils are challenged to collect as many batteries as they can, encouraging their communities to do the same.
All you need to do is take any unwanted batteries into school and give them to your school councillor. The school council will collect the batteries, keep count of them and recycle them for you. Let’s see how many we can collect this year!
This week we have celebrated many things including our children who are HOWL point winners! Congratulations to Sidney for getting the yellow tshirt this week for working so hard in phonics and having consistently good HoWLs!
Here are some of our snapshots from this week so far! beautiful work and children working so hard!
