On Friday 26th April, our KS2 Choir and all the children who have music tuition treated us to a concert. Our children played various instruments – piano, guitar, cornet, trumpet and tenor horn, each performing a piece on their own.
Well done to all our children and thank you to our (very large) audience of parents and families – your support is very much appreciated!
On Monday 25th March, we held a very ‘Egg-citing’ Easter Hat Competition in school. Children and their parents really worked hard to create some extraordinary hats and these were all celebrated in class. (see photographs below)
Our Chair of Governors, Mrs Dunkley, was then given the very difficult task of choosing a winning hat from each of our 23 classes and an overall winner in school.
Congratulations to our class winners below. Our TWO overall winners were Ryan and Greyson – they received an additional prize and their hats were worn by Mr Pridden, our bingo caller, at Easter Family Bingo!
WELL DONE to all our entrants – your hats were all excellent!
Thank you for your contributions. We raised £364.00 for the Comic Relief Charity.
We had a wonderful day in school celebrating World Book Day. Whole school activities this year included: dressing up (see themes below); joining in webinars with the author James Campbell and a visit from author Christian Darkin.
Here are photographs of our activities:
On Friday 9th and Monday 12th February, all children in school took part in our sponsored pancake flip – trying to flip as many (wooden) pancakes as possible in two minutes!
As you can see from the photographs below, the children had a great time taking part. THANK YOU for your very generous sponsorship and MANY THANKS to all the adults who came into school to help with counting flips – we really could not run the sessions without your support.
On Monday 5th February, our choir sang at the AO Arena, Manchester alongside 8000 other children in the Young Voices Concert.
All the children in our choir have worked very hard to learn all the songs and their efforts were rewarded on Monday evening. We are all extremely proud of them – they sang so well and a fantastic time was had by all at this very special event.
Thank you to all our parents and families who supported us and all those who helped the choir along the way.
Here are photographs and videos of our afternoon and evening at the Arena:
Well done to all our Y5&6 Dance Club members who have enjoyed this term’s after school club with Paige, our dance teacher. Here is one of their Autumn Term dances, performed on Friday 15th December.
Dance Club resumes on Friday 12th January 2024.
Today, some of our Year 5 & Year 6 children were presented with their Children’s University Awards in a graduation ceremony led by Enrich Education.
Children’s University is a charity that works in partnership with schools to develop a love of learning in children – encouraging and celebrating participation in extra-curricular activities in and outside of school.
Our children received bronze, silver and gold awards today, according to the number of hours of extra-curricular activities they have built up over the past year.
