  • Carnival Art Festival Exhibition

    What a wonderful finale to what has been a successful half term. The children's efforts have been incredible and the pieces of art created were absolutely phenomenal. A huge thank you to all of you who came today. Having open events such as these, really do make our children's learning and achievements special for them. I would like to thank our super staff team for planning such an enjoyable week with an extra special mention to Miss Lemar who coordinated everything. You are all stars!

  • Art Festival Day 1

    Tue 22 May 2018 Ms Rogers
    Well, the first Day of our Art Festival Week has been amazing and the children did incredibly well with the art challenges they were set! The school is already awash with bright colours - we are loving it! We have had carnival float craft making, air dough tile creating, tie-dying, abstract art imaging, string painting, mandala creating using acrylics, blow painting, chalk and collage drawings, chalk creations to name but a few! 
    Has/have your child/ren studied the art of Steve Beveridge yet? Don’t forget to stick it on the large piece of paper that’s on the table in the court yard so we can make one large school picture! 
    The children have also listened to various pieces of carnival music whilst working hard on their creations.  We are certainly getting into the spirit of celebration. 
    With the way things are going - you are in for a treat on Friday! Don't forget to meet us in the courtyard at 3.10pm as the children have something special to share with you. Mr Quilter will be assisting you with where to stand.

  • Year One Secret Garden Day

    Thu 17 May 2018 Miss Hanafin

    Once again, Year One is coming to the end of another brilliant topic - The Secret Garden. This topic has given us the chance to really use our imaginations to create unique and special versions of our own secret gardens and Narnia-style lands. We have spent a lot of time outside enjoying our school grounds and to celebrate the end of this topic, we had a Secret Garden Day. In the morning the children rotated around 5 activities; flower making, plant pot designing, biscuit flower decorating, secret post card writing and garden windmill decoration making. The children had lots of challenges to face in these activities and had so much fun completing them. Then in the afternoon, after sharing their fantastic royal wedding themed projects, the children had two more activities. One was a secret garden page where they opened the doors and created beautiful designs with labels about what they would see in their garden. The second activity was a treasure hunt in the woodland - with the prize being extra play on the adventure playground.

     

    The children really impressed us with their creative and engaged attitude to their learning. What a wonderful day! Have a look at the photos to see what we got up to. 

  • Lunchtime Sun Fun at GBP

    Fri 11 May 2018 Ms Rogers
    This week, our children have been enjoying playing in the sunshine during their lunchtime play. I caught a few snaps of the children having fun and play nicely together. 
  • Year 5 Forest School Puppet Making

    Fri 04 May 2018 Ms Rogers
    It was lovely seeing the children in Year 5 using cut wood from our woodland to create their puppets - they are already starting to look great. The children have certainly been working very hard to gather the wood and create them; I can not wait to see the finished results. Our Y5s are certainly using many of our values to accomplish this project. Keep at it and you will be so chuffed once they are finished.
