Well done to all of our marvellous Year 6's who have earned themselves a certificate this week.

What a joy it was to spend time reading together in weather conditions that were just right!
The children read to each other and to the adults present, with some parents sharing their favourite childhood stories and authors!
We created short stories using four random words and some groups had the opportunity to share.
In conclusion, we recited this half term's poem - 'Hands on the Bridge' by Michael Rosen.
Our hope is for all of the children to cultivate a love for reading that will last a lifetime!

Year 6 Activity Afternoon
Year 6 had a fantastic afternoon enjoying the lovely weather while taking part in a range of exciting activities. We began with some peaceful cloud watching before the children took on the role of hosts for a variety of events, including rounders, vortex throwing competitions, sprint races, basketball shootouts and chess matches.
The children showed great teamwork, enthusiasm and sportsmanship throughout the afternoon, encouraging one another and taking pride in leading each activity. It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying themselves while making the most of the sunshine.
A huge well done to all of Year 6 for their excellent behaviour and positive attitudes. They represented the school brilliantly and should be very proud of themselves!
