The past few weeks Class 5 has been getting in the Christmas mood. We have been busy making decorations and practising our carol singing. In their Christmas jumpers, the class looked so fabulous altogether and the money raised is going to such a good cause too. We have finished The Lion, the Witch and [...]
After weeks of hard work and planning, the children finally got to make fruit kebabs for their client. Each child got a chance to write their own shopping list of fruit, collect what they needed for their kebabs and carefully cut each piece to size. The children were skilled when it came to cutting [...]
After 11 weeks of learning toots, Class 3 are very proud to present the fruits of their labours! Unfortunately, we were unable to invite guests into the hall to be amazed by our skills in person but we hope that the videos give you a glimpse into what we've been doing. A big thank [...]

This morning's Bench of Glory opened up the 2021 Oscars! As you can see from the photo, there were so many budding young performers during our rehearsal week we had to add an extra bench! There's a great deal of commitment needed in the early stages of a production. An Oscar recognises more than [...]
They came, they saw, they conquered class 4! What a day we had! From playing games in the forum to dressing in incredibly heavy Roman armour, we experienced so much of this fascinating era. Have a look at just some of the pictures from our wonderful day. [...]
Class 5 had a long-awaited trip to visit and learn about the stunning Lincoln Cathedral. Mrs Ballard was also keen to take advantage of this opportunity to steep ourselves in British history. We went to see one of the first sites William the Conqueror deemed important to build a Norman Cathedral. Our guide for [...]
The children got straight to work in our Design and Technology lesson as we taste tested different fruits for our fruit kebabs.
