Easton Primary School are having a lovely time! They've explored the area, coasteered at Watermouth yesterday and they're about to help the National Trust litter picking Putsborough Beach before they head to Ilfracombe for a trip on the Ilfracombe Princess!
We had some amazing weather for our Summer Fair this year :-) The stalls included- a teddy tombola, the lucky dip, nail art, hair chalk, bric-a-brac, a card shop, the lollipop tombola and a sweet stall. There was also a BBQ, tea and coffee, a bar and a cake table. Entertainment was provided by tin can alley, THREE bouncy castles, [...]
Our Summer Fair is on today. What a lovely day the children are having - lunch on the field too!
It's another Sean's Day! Thanks very much for bringing in any donations for Challenge Ministry Swaziland. Some of you have brought in some cash (we'll let you know how much as soon as we've counted it up) and some of you have brought in specific items for the box in our hallway. Mrs Mortimer has recently requested that we consider [...]
Last Tuesday Class 4 visited Braunton Burrows with warden Rupert to find out more about this amazing place and how it is managed. We went on the public bus which was good fun - and meant we managed the whole afternoon trip for £1! It was great to learn about the burrows from an expert, and to be able to [...]
I'm so proud of our Year 6 children... here's very nearly all of them sitting in the hall going through their reading paper. (I'll make sure I don't publish this blog until after the test is over - make sure I don't break protocol; mind you, you can't really see the paper or questions can you?!) This year they're allowed [...]
Several of the families from our community, most of whom attend St. George's Church have, for the past few years, spent a weekend together at Brunel Manor, a hotel near Torquay. Leaving school quite promptly on Friday we all zipped down the link road (Roger knew of some country lanes through Winkleigh and went a quicker route) and we all [...]
A great morning, this morning with families coming in to the school to have their breakfast... whether bacon, sausage or egg rolls (or all three) or the healthier option of cereal or fruit. Hopefully you managed to be served a coffee or tea by me too?! It's a lovely start to the day giving our families an opportunity to share [...]
Next week is our end of year assessment week in class 4 and we will be doing our SATS (Standardised Assessment Tests) and 'optional' SATS from Mon to Thurs. The children in all year groups do these assessments at the end of every year, so year 6 won't be doing anything different from any other year group, it's just that [...]
You know about Sean don't you? Sean lives in Bolembu, in Swaziland, in South Africa. We sponsor Sean through the Child Sponsorship Programme with a charity called Challenge Ministries Swaziland. This all came about because of a chap called Jon Skinner. Jon lives in Ilfracombe, he visited Swaziland, he stayed for years with his family, he helped set-up a school [...]
