Congratulations to our Year 2 Football Team for their winning performance against Capel Primary. Our brilliant boys were fantastic and won 14-1!

We are proud to have raised £347.50 last year for our friends at Chapita Primary School in Malawi. The children there now have a good supply of exercise books, stationary and cleaning materials for the year ahead.
Thank you to our amazing Rocksteady band leader Ash for preparing our bands for their first concert this year. We look forward to hearing them play live soon.
During their inquiry into how to keep their minds and bodies healthy Year 1 made their own carefully chopped fruit kebabs. They showed fantastic cutting skills, creativity and collaboration. Great job Year 1!
As part of their inquiry into the human body Year 6 created models of the major organs to show their understanding of how they function. All children showed excellent communication skills and used the correct scientific vocabulary to explain their models. This is a fantastic example of how to make learning purposeful, engaging and fun.
