Thank you so much to all of our fabulous supporters this morning who cheered on all of the children in key stage 1. The children thoroughly enjoyed it and I am so proud of all of them for taking part and having a go! We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did and I am so pleased that we managed to escape the rain!!!!
Thanks again, from Mrs Shaw and the whole key stage 1 team x x
We had a great time for our last School Council meeting of the year. It was lovely to see all the children reflecting on what they have enjoyed this year before we celebrated all our hard work with some party games. Thank you for all your hard work this year! You have all been amazing and should be super proud of yourselves.
Just a little reminder that year 1 and year 2 will be having their sports day on Wednesday 12th July. It will be starting at 9.00am on the key stage 2 field. The children can come to school in their PE kits and wear trainers. Please can they bring sun cream already applied, a sun hat and a water bottle.
It will also be a chance for them to share with you their recipe books that they have produced as part of our Spring Term expedition and these will be on sale for £5 if anyone would like to purchase one.
There will also be refreshments for sale for any adults that attend.
We can’t wait to have a fantastic morning with you all.
A huge congratulations to all our certificate winners, out of school celebrations and awesome homework. A big well done to crew Schon for winning the attendance and thankyou to parents for joining our celebrations.
What an amazing afternoon we had today celebrating the end of our final expedition with our families and carers. Our school hall was packed out with family members who came to listen to the children present their life journey so far, and to marvel at the children’s writing skills as they shared their very own space themed books. The children have worked long and hard on producing the stories, illustrations and front covers. What lovely keepsakes to cherish and, in years to come, look back with fond memories of their time in year 1. We sure will miss you all!
We would also like to give a huge shout out to the staff that helped us serve refreshments today and to Mrs Clay, Miss Cooper, Mrs Roe and Faith, and everyone else who helped to edit, draft, draw, colour, cut, stick and assemble the books. It was a mammoth task but I’m sure you will agree, totally worth it.
Finally to all parents and carers who took the time to attend our celebration today. Events like these could not go ahead without your support and for this we send out a massive thank you!
Look out J. K. Rowling! Year one are coming to get you!

To celebrate arts week, we would like as many people as possible to create some artwork linked to the theme of ‘connecting across generations‘. Get together with your family or friends to create a piece of artwork. It can be anything you want! You could create a family portrait, a landscape of somewhere you like to visit or just your favourite picture.
It would be great to see everyone working together to create one piece of artwork. Send any pictures or your final art work to Miss Barnett or email them to [email protected] by Monday 17th July.
Here are some examples if you need some inspiration!
As part of our last expedition in year one we have been studying the work of space artist Peter Thorpe. We held a gallery walk and critiqued some of his pieces before planning and drafting our own. Our mini expedition culminated today with our final drafts, coloured brightly with oil pastels. Below are just some of the amazing work the children have done.
Awesome job guys!
Mrs Rodgers and Miss Schon would like to invite parents in on Wednesday 5th July at 2:15pm for a coffee and a chat. If you are able to come in, we will invite your children to come and share their passage presentations with you, which is a great piece of work that will explain all about their learning this year. We hope you can make it x x
A huge congratulations to all our certificate winners today and a huge well done to crew Shaw and crew Schon for being joint winners for the attendance. Also a big thankyou to parents for joining in our celebrations.
Next week we will be practising for our sports day (12th July!). Please could you send your children with a PE kit and a bottle of water every day!
Thank you! – KS1 team.
