From their very first day of school…to their final day of Year 6. 🥺
Look how much they’ve grown. 😍
From little faces filled with wonder to the incredible children they are today, it has been a privilege to watch them learn, grow, laugh and make memories along the way.
Now, they’re ready for their next adventure…
We are so incredibly proud of you all Year 6. Go out into the world, be brave, be kind, seize new opportunities and challenges and make it a better place. 💚

🍂What a successful and fun-filled two days of Forest School.🌿
Our children enjoyed a wonderful range of hands-on activities: woodwork, cooking, natural art, bug stations, seed planting and clay mindfulness. 🪵 🌱 🐞
Two days filled with creativity, curiosity, learning and plenty of outdoor fun.
A huge thank you to our wonderful Miss Maese for planning, organising and resourcing such a fun-filled experience for all our children. Also our parent volunteers, who were absolutely brilliant.🥰 Such a memorable time for all. 💚

Sun, sea, smiles and so many happy memories! ☀️🌊

Our annual whole-school beach trip was a fantastic day filled with fun and laughter. We enjoyed paddling and splashing in the sea, digging holes in the sand, building amazing sandcastles and sharing lunch together under the gazebos. We finished the day with well-deserved ice creams and ice lollies! 🍦🍭

A wonderful day of friendship, teamwork and making memories together. 🏖️

🥗 Healthy Lunch Challenge!

In Design & Technology, Year 3 explored what makes a healthy lunch by using the Eatwell Plate as their guide. They analysed different lunch ideas, planned balanced meals, prepared a variety of foods, then tasted and evaluated each one. A fun way to build cooking skills, make healthy choices and learn through practical experience! 🍽️

In DT, our Year 1 children learned all about preparing food safely. 🥗
They practised good hygiene, carefully prepared their own healthy salads and then enjoyed eating them together outside in the sunshine. A hands-on lesson full of learning, teamwork and healthy choices! ☀️💚

📚🎶 **Read to the Beat this Summer!** 🎶📚

This summer, we’re encouraging all our pupils to take part in the **Summer Reading Challenge 2026** at our local library!

Reading over the six-week holidays helps children:
✨ Keep their reading skills sharp
✨ Grow their imagination and creativity
✨ Build confidence and vocabulary
✨ Discover exciting new stories and characters

Just a few minutes of reading each day can make a big difference and help children return to school ready to learn.

Visit our local library, sign up for the **Read to the Beat** Summer Reading Challenge and enjoy a summer full of books, music and fun! 🎵📖

Happy reading! 💚
