Y2 Visit the Ancient High House

Tue 28 Nov 2023

Year 2 enjoyed a trip to The Ancient High House as part of the Great Fire of London topic in History!! The children had a brilliant time. 😁🔥👏🏽

Our Year 6 vehicle this term is "Hear the Call: Take Action". The children buddied up with pupils from reception class who all went out around the school grounds and local community picking up litter. We are very proud of our children for their contribution to the local community. Why not set up a little group of your own and give this a go?!

Autumn Glow Disco 2023

Thu 23 Nov 2023

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported our school discos last week. The PTA event raised £623! We are so excited to announce that the funds raised will go towards hosting a theatre production of The Railway Children in school next year, which will be delivered by M&M Theatrical Productions who visited the school earlier this year to perform a taster show. All of the children attending had a great time at the show and we can't wait to have them back again next year!

Condover 2023

Tue 21 Nov 2023

Our Year 6 children embarked on their annual residential to Condover Hall earlier this month. They faced their fears by completing various breathtaking activities including an aerial trek, trapeze and abseiling! There was time to relax in the dorms and enjoy some amazing meals, including a full English! During the evenings, the children met with pupils from St Anne's Catholic Primary School and spent time getting to know each other around the campfire and had fun at the silent disco.

A huge well done to all of the children who participated and showed impeccable manners and team spirit - we are all very proud of you!

A big thank you to their parents also, who ensured they had everything they needed for their big adventure.

A great big thank you to our staff, Miss Vaz, Miss Molloy and Miss O'Neil, who gave up their time to ensure the children were safe and well looked after, day and night. Not forgetting Condover Hall too - thanks for accommodating all of our needs during the visit!
