This week’s the children had the chance to make their own friendship corded bracelets which they seemed to enjoy very much! Lovely little group and great effort.
Year 3/4 – FfT craft club
Class 12 – PE
Great PE lesson today guys I was really impressed at how you all got stuck in and listened to feedback throughout the session. And I’m sure you all enjoy me failing very miserably at a push up too! Well done again, looking forward to next week.
Class 7 – Castle research!
Class 7 have been learning about the different types of castles and worked hard researching facts about them. We learned about Motte & Bailey castles, stone keep castles and, finally, concentric castles! Well done on such super knowledge, Class 7!
Have a great weekend, Class 7! 🙂
Activ8 PE in Class 6
A huge thanks to Coach Morgan today for our extra-special PE session. We learned about the importance of following instructions carefully to travel safely around the hall and finished with a super fun game of Don’t Wake Grandma and Grandad.
Thanks Coach Morgan
See you soon!

Key stage 1 crew assembly
This was our first key stage 1 crew assembly and it was amazing. The children had fantastic manners and listened beautifully throughout, as well as doing some great singing.
We handed out certificates for fabulous stewards and HOWL point winners. Well done to all of you guys, what a super start to the year!
We also celebrated some fantastic home learning that the children had been doing, including a taekwondo certificate!
Also, a massive well done to Crew Shaw for 100% attendance last week. I am so proud!
Have a lovely weekend x x
