News from Class 5
November News Welcome back from, what I hope, has been an enjoyable half term break! I’m looking forward to seeing everyone again and I’m eagerly anticipating the stories of how many sweets you managed to get during Halloween – we got loads! I have had a lovey half term break; it felt like it [...]
A victory in the cup for the girls and one in the league for the boys has seen our consistent form continue following the Saturday tournaments. On Thursday 3rd October the girls played Rosecliffe in a cup game and came out comfortable winners in a 5-2 win. The girls now await Cropwell Bishop or [...]
It was a pleasure to welcome you all to our Friday morning MacMillan Coffee Morning last week. As you can see from the photos, there's nothing better than a slice of cake and a brew to get the day underway! Your brilliant bake off entries were nothing short of spectacular and I had no [...]
There's nothing better than a sunny September afternoon to bring the community together for an afternoon of fun and sport. Our whole-school Potted Sport event saw Year 6 take the lead and head up teams that completed various challenges and activities. It's all about working together and practising our 5 C's. As you can [...]

As you can see from the photographs, the children concentrated and were [...]
Gillian the giraffe has been the mascot of my class for the past 7 years (5 years in Class 3 and 2 years in Class 1). Each week, she has dutifully gone home with a different child who has impressed me with their writing and gone on some fabulous adventures over the weekend with [...]
Rounders The last week of term is a very special time for everyone at school. No more so than when doing a class-wide competition of rounders. Can you believe the scores were tied at 15 - 15 at 'full time'? So of course, naturally, we had to go to sudden death! It was a [...]
Greek Pottery You'd be forgiven for thinking we'd unearthed some Ancient Greek pottery, such is the level of detail within year five's work. They have tirelessly (and painstakingly at times) created their own Greek pots which have been on display for all to see. From inception of ideas - sketching Greek patterns - to [...]
