Y3 visit to the Cenotaph

2nd July 2025Claire Dutton

Today, Year 3 were excited to visit Thorne Memorial Park once again. This time, to meet up with our friends from the Victoria Cross Trust who were steam washing the cenotaph in order to restore its original splendour. Unfortunately, the steam cleaner wasn’t quite working during our visit so we didn’t get to see it in action but Keith, who we worked with back in Autumn term, has kindly shared some videos of the washer in all its working glory! (see below)

We’re sure you will agree that the before & after shows an amazing transformation. A huge shout out to the VC Trust and the amazing work that they do!

Year 5 spent this morning out and about in the community, litter picking and delivering ‘Thank you’ notes to people who help us! Some of us were extremely lucky to be invited into the Fire Station for a look around! This ties in perfectly with our Transition guiding question “How can our Crew be strengthened by acts of service to others?“…bring on our Campout to end a perfect day!

Class 7 – Superstar Carer Award!

21st December 2023Claire Dutton

A huge well done goes to our very kind and caring Ava, who was so enthralled by our recent work with local care homes that she has encouraged her family to get involved too. At the weekend, Ava went back to visit the care home with her family to spread some Christmas cheer and she was gifted this lovely card made and signed by the residents there. Well done, Ava – what a superstar carer you are. We are all very proud of your kindness and compassion – just what Christmas is all about!
