Year Four Topic Launch
Thu 06 Sep 2018Today the children have had a busy morning launching our Scrumdiddlyumptious topic. We have had some Charlie and The Chocolate Factory inspired activities where the children have been designing and creating their own factory advertisement posters, complete with a tag line showing why it is such an exciting place. They have also been doing blindfolded ingredient tasting - some ingredients were sweet, some were salty and some were surprising! Mr Wood definitely tried to trick some of us with what we were eating. We have also been creating our own chocolate bars by melting down chocolate and working as a team to choose three delicious toppings. Some of us have had the chance to explore our new role play area which is a Sweet Shop theme. The children have had a brilliant morning with lots of fun. This afternoon they will be thinking a bit more about where chocolate comes from. Have a look at the pictures to see what we have been up to - maybe you can try some of these activities at home.

Welcome back children

Here are a few pictures from today...more will follow.

What a fabulous night!!!
Fri 20 Jul 2018Wow what a brilliant night !!! So lovely to see you all enjoying yourselves this evening. A lovely way to end the school year and I just want to reiterate a huge thank you to all of you for your support.
A big thanks to my wonderful staff team who attended this evening even though they are all exhausted from what has been a very busy term... they’re still smiling and I’m so appreciative of them giving up a Friday evening for our school.
I’m so appreciative of The Ukelele Band, Moana, SCL team, Premier Sport, Paul our Judo Guru, our orchestra and dancers for their commitment to our school too. You really added something special to the evening.
I’m sure you will also agree that the biggest ‘thank you’ must go to our fabulous FOGB who have put on a such a great event... the best GBP Summer BBQ yet!!! You are all super stars and have brought our school community even closer!! You should be so proud. ;))))

Congratulations Anna!
Fri 20 Jul 2018Today we found out the results of our annual Binfields Got Talent competition. Earlier in the term the acts had been selected by their year groups through class auditions. Then on Monday afternoon the whole school went in to watch ten amazing acts give it their all, as they tried to win the votes for Binfields Got Talent. We had an amazing range of talents from Year R up to Year 6 including gymnastics, dancing, singing, guitar playing, magic tricks, comedy and Shakespeare recitals. Following the show, the children went back to class to vote for their winner, which was then revealed in assembly this morning. Everyone who took part did brilliantly and it was very difficult to pick a winners.
This year our top three act were:
Third Place - Lara singing Never Enough from The Greatest Showman.
Second Place - Ben G, guitar playing.
First Place - Anna , magic tricks.
A huge well done to everyone who took part.

Year 6 Leavers' Activities at Christchurch
Thu 19 Jul 2018Our children really enjoyed the activities Mrs Katy Lowe, the church youth leader planned for them today. Each activity needed a value to be exercised in order for it to work. I'm pleased to say the children did well and enjoyed the experience immensely. Thank you Katy for planning a lovely time for them all and well done to all of the children.

Year 2 End of Year Assembly
Thu 19 Jul 2018We had a real treat this afternoon as our Year 2 children shared some of their favourite moments since starting at our school and then cleverly compared various sweets and chocolates to our school values and ethos. You ended the assembly with a lovely rendition of one of the tracks from The Greatest Showman - it was sung so sweetly. It certainly made us quite emotional but they were happy tears. A huge well done to you all and we very much hope that you are looking forward to many more exciting learning opportunities as you enter Key Stage 2.
