There will be a Parenting Plus Adolescents Program starting at Taw View on April 23rd, 10am-12.30pm. This program promotes effective communication and positive relationships in families with adolescents aged 11-16years. The program is for parents only to attend and the school needs to complete the (easy-to-complete) referral form on your behalf. Please come and ask Mr Thomas about this if you'd [...]
Last week class 3 baked their own Egyptian flatbreads based on a Jamie Oliver recipe (which you can download at the bottom of this post!). Everyone had tasted a range of breads beforehand and from this designed their own flavor bread, as well as the packaging to go with it. It was quite hard (and messy) work getting the dough [...]
Did you know I was in a choir? (Miss Summerville and Miss Smale have joined too!) "Teachers Rock" started as a Devon teachers' choir and has grown over the past 5 years to include about 4 counties now. Today was our first Teachers Youth Choir rehearsal including 120 children from all over Devon... all rehearsing in preparation for cutting a [...]

Georgeham won the Learning Community's Football Tournament!

Class 4 had a great time making felt pots with Caroline from Beaford Arts. It was a very challenging task, with lots of resilience needed, but everyone was really pleased with their finished product. 😀

Of course... It was also World Book Day today too! A few excellent characters came to school today. I could possibly name two of these three in the photo... Who on earth is Rob dressed as though; I'm stumped!? Have fun on Snow Day. Build something - even an igloo for a teddy bear? But also don't miss the impromptu [...]
Due to overnight snow that no doubt will be frozen by the morning... ...AND no food delivery, leaving us with nothing for the children tomorrow (!) we have no alternative than to be closed tomorrow. Today was lovely. The children enjoyed a snow-dust fight with/against me on the field and they enjoyed the Hot Chocolate and cookies in the hall [...]
We are Open until 1pm. We will close at 1pm due to snow coming our way and to ensure everyone can make their way home safely. Please only come to school if you feel it is safe to do so. We have hot chocolate for playtime, a warm lunch at lunchtime but sadly not much snow for snowmen; just some ice [...]
