We were astounded by the effort and thought that had gone into the STEM fair. The children had. Great time looking at all the maths and science entries. Thank you to all those who took part. The children were very proud to show off their achievements.

We had a lot of fun whilst practising our multiplication facts.
We were very impressed with the efforts made for Crazy Hair Day. The children looked great! Thank you to everyone for your support towards an amazing cause.

We were very impressed with the children’s final products. They had some wonderful conversations with one another about which materials to use and showed great team work. We monitored the

Three of our Year Four children ran four miles during Skills Academy. That’s 16 laps of our field! We were very impressed with them. Needless to say, they were a little tired afterwards.
The children in year one and year four have been working very hard on writing their own stories based on the books we read for World Book Day. Year four read Tuesday by David Weisner whilst year one read I don’t like books. Never ever. The end. by Emma Perry. We got together to share our stories with one another.
