In Class 2 we have all been given a miniature wooden person and today we made a picnic for them. As it rained we improvised with some Astroturf and umbrellas. We made mini pizzas and Keri cooked them for us. We will keep you up to date with our next exciting adventure!
Hi... I thought I'd give you an update on what’s happening in school at the moment, the things taking place over the summer and also a headline on some changes for September.

Sometimes it really [...]
By now, most of you will have heard the latest updates from the UK Government regarding primary school provision for the final weeks of the summer term.

Dear parent / Guardian We hope that you and your families are keeping well through these difficult times.

Dear parents, Well done for managing a week's worth of learning at home. I bet it's had its challenges, but also some fun bits too - I have four boys of my own at home, so I know only too well how hard it can be! We're about to head into the school's 'Easter Break,' but it's not going to [...]
AKA, musing of a headteacher. We’re sending out ideas and packs today… And we’ll be populating web pages… But we thought we could host a place where people could post ideas? I'm sure Pinterest and Facebook will help here too, but it's a thought; a possible helpful page? It's also un-moderated. Please be thoughtful of the audience! Link here, for [...]

Most children were involved in lots of activity and games on our new playground markings today. Apart from being Martha's Dad, Ben Cox is the lead coach for 'Inspired Playgrounds' and he came in to help us all with an additional free session.
