Week 2 saw more laughter, chaos and enjoyment. PRIZE task saw lots of creative sock designs for 'best socks'. A disguised sock in the shape and design of a donut won Mrs Mitchell's vote!

In the tasks, first the teams needed to use socks to measure the classroom, the tables and the walls! Then they had to put as many 'unique' items inside a sock, including a member's hand and wrist! However, a second part to the task was a twist no one expected! Writing their 9x tables out with their hand AND the objects in the sock!

Judging was tough as there was a lot to consider: the number of unique items, the most unique item, the name of the sock, the voice of the sock and the fastest to write the times table! All participated with enthusiasm and many laughs were had!

Dear Parent/Carer

As part of our commitment to offer ‘Education with Character’ your child will have the opportunity to watch a performance of ‘Beauty and the Beast’ on Wednesday, 19th November 2025 in school.

This is sure to be a wonderful experience for all!

To allow us to offer this, please can you provide £5.00 to cover the expense of the performance. Please pay and on the arbor app/parent portal.

If you do not wish your child to watch this performance, please contact the school office.

If you have any questions, please speak to your child’s teacher.

Thank you for your continued support.

Last week was a blast for our Year 6s at the Magna Science Adventure Centre! We dived into the exciting four pavilions filled with interactive exhibits and had a ton of fun discovering the wonders of Air, Earth, Fire, and Water.

But that's not all! We rolled up our sleeves for a workshop where we got hands-on with 'Big Circuits.' We created large electrical circuits and even experimented with conductors like water!

Good morning, families!

We’re excited to share that our children are having a blast during playtime, and the OPAL project is really taking off! This week, we’re on the lookout for any old musical instruments, wellies and kitchen utensils you no longer use. If you've got any spare items lying around, we’d be absolutely thrilled to give them a new life in our play sessions!

Also, don’t forget to check out some fun snapshots of the kids enjoying their lunchtime activities from last week!

Thank you so much for your ongoing support! You truly make our community awesome!
