Sports Day 2016

2016-07-14T17:41:27+01:00

What a fantastic Sports Day! The children showed amazing team spirit by supporting each other and congratulating the winners. "Great race mate" was a comment heard more than once, to the winner of the race they had just competed in. :-) Thanks to FROGs each child will have a medal to celebrate their efforts. We also had some individual winners [...]

Food Chains….with a difference…

2022-08-18T13:27:20+01:00

In class 3 this afternoon we were learning about food chains. So....the children had to carry out research to find a food chain BUT they then display it in a way that would capture the interest of the audience. This meant they couldn't just draw a food chain in the traditional way like the one below.... but they had to get creative. [...]

We had another fantastic Summer fete this year. There were all the usual favourites of Splat the Rat, the raffle, Tin Can Alley and the BBQ but this year we introduced a Glastonbury feel with our very own Festival Tent that housed nail art, henna tattoos and flower creations. During the fete, the children showed their talents with an exceptional [...]

Whole School Beach Day 2016

2022-08-18T13:27:20+01:00

When Jules Swanne suggested that Croyde Surf Academy co-ordinated a whole school beach day, it seemed like a tall order.  Now, 6 months on, we have just spent the most fantastic day on the Croyde beach taking part surfing, surf lifesaving with Croyde Surf Lifesaving Club, volleyball with Denise Austin, coasteering with Ben Kennedy, beach cleaning and foraging with the [...]

Calling all insects-Nature area for sale!

2016-06-27T18:24:15+01:00

In class 3 we talked about how different our environment would be if it wasn't managed. We decided that instead of having a school, houses, roads and shops there would just be trees and woodland. Although we thought about how altering the natural environment can be a bad thing, we also thought of ways that change can be good. One [...]

So…which plant is it?

2016-06-26T19:22:25+01:00

On Friday we started to think about how we could use classification systems to identify plants that are actually very similar-this means we couldn’t just identify them by colour or size. To help us do this we created our own botanical drawings to let us think about the features of each plant such as the shape of the petals and the [...]

Class 4 had an amazing day at Oceanfest today. We had a go at the Code Breaker team challenges, competed in the beach flags competition and then spent time looking around the event arena trying out things like Street Art and browsing the stalls. At the end of the afternoon we were able to see Beau and Jess compete in beach [...]

To infinity and beyond….and lots of fun in between

2016-06-10T20:57:29+01:00

It is days like today that make you realise how lucky we are at our school as we managed to experience life in Space in the Space Odyssey Dome, think about other parts of our own planet that are less fortunate by raising money for Sean AND celebrate a Royal Birthday all in  ONE day! Here are just a few of [...]

I am NEVER letting Class 4 decorate my house ;-)

2016-05-13T12:40:10+01:00

In class 4 we have been choosing words for effect in our poetry. The children were given the challenge of changing the names of paint from appealing and tasteful names such as; Blue Saturn, Oyster Pearl and Lilac Grey to some much more disgusting (and funny) names. Some of our favourites were; Stinky Elephant Breath Grey, Sweaty Socks Grey, Fungus [...]
