Tutankhamun had a brilliant time during British Science Week.🧪🔎 The children experimented to see if they could make a strong 'spine' using paper, then balanced books on top to test the weight their designs could hold. The competition became fierce and lots of children managed to balance over 30 books on their 'spines'. 🩻🦴

Well done and thank you to our 4 representatives at the rugby festival this weekend. They demonstrated the most excellent sportsmanship! Thank you to Miss Raymonde for organising and attending, whilst being ably supported by Mr Rigden, and not forgetting our team mascot: Sani. Our players earned themselves a medal and have reached the great heights of GOLD. Well done!

A great big thank you to Kmeto K9 for their informative dog safety and dog protection assembly for year 5 and 6 this afternoon. The children have learned how to safely approach a dog; what to do if bitten or chased by a dog and enjoyed safely petting the dogs. Why not see how much your child can remember?

O’Keeffe Class had a great morning sharing the learning with our adults on World Book Day! We had activities such as a missing poster, a comic strip and sequence the images all based around our current book “That rabbit belongs to Emily Brown” and had some fantastic costumes! A BIG thank you to all the parents and carers that came along.

Last term Anning class and Picasso class had a great day working with ceramists Jayne and Leah from the Turner Gallery. The children made their own totem poles as part of our two year art project with the gallery. Jayne was particularly thrilled to hear so many of our children talking about wanting to be artists when they grow up. We certainly have some skilled artists in our midst!
