Hi everyone,

We look forward to seeing as many of you as we can! 🙂

Y5 Smash their Presentation of Learning!

2nd July 2025Sarah Walton

An enormous well done to Year 5 who have worked so hard on their singing/chair drumming performance of Working Man! Each and every child played and sang their hearts out and Mrs Spetch and I are incredibly proud! Thank you to the parents who came along to support- we hope you are also proud of your wonderful children. We were lucky that Geoff was in school and recorded the event-the video will be shared as soon as it is available.

Engineering club representatives

2nd July 2025Chris Mumby

We are incredibly proud to share that three of our talented pupils represented our Engineering Club at the recent Celebration Event in Snaith — and they absolutely blew everyone away with their creativity, teamwork, and technical skills!

As part of the challenge, the children were tasked with testing their engineering builds for both load-bearing strength and their ability to move in a straight line. But the event didn’t stop there — they were also put to the test in a live interview with two employees from Siemens Rail, where they confidently explained their design choices and the reasoning behind their builds.

What happened next was nothing short of amazing…

The judges were so impressed by our pupils’ work — especially the addition of coding in their designs — that they awarded them the top grade, a level never awarded before!

Not only that, but our team secured both 1st and 2nd place, receiving their prizes from none other than Mark Speed, Manager at Siemens Rail in Goole.

Nursery

2nd July 2025Elizabeth Hay

Now we have finished our expedition learning, this week we have focused on ‘children’s choice’. The Nursery children asked for a doctors, a beauty salon and ice creams. They are thoroughly enjoying role playing with the resources, crafting as always is a big hit as is the sand and interactive board. It’s wonderful to see so many happy, busy and creative children today.

Nursery – German Band Visit

2nd July 2025Elizabeth Hay

Yesterday, the children enjoyed a visit from a live band all the way Germany. They played Billie Jean, I got this feeling and Skyfall. The children loved looking at the vast range of instruments and clapping along to the beat. What a wonderful experience for our youngest children to enjoy.
