πΏ A little look back at our final day of term.
A day filled with team challenges, Forest School, swimming, time with friends and a wonderful performance of Fantastic Mr Fox.
Calm, purposeful and joyful. Just as importantly, it reflected something we value deeply at Bablake: creating experiences that support our pupil's wellbeing, connection and sense of belonging every day. π

π¨π» Outdoor Art Club β A Summer of Creativity! π»π¨
Our Year 3β6 Outdoor Art Club has enjoyed a wonderful summer term immersed in creativity and nature. From painting beautiful bluebell watercolours inspired by our school spinney, to crafting tree mobiles, clay flower watering ornaments for bees and insects, and vibrant sunflower oil pastel artwork, every session was filled with imagination, colour and fun.
With music playing as they worked, the children created an incredible collection of artwork and were delighted to take their masterpieces home at the end of term. We are so proud of their enthusiasm, creativity and artistic flair!

βοΈ What a Sports Day! βοΈπ
The electric atmosphere around the field was simply incredible! From obstacle courses, egg and spoon races, sack races and sprints to circle relays, team relays and a huge range of field events, every pupil embraced the day with determination, teamwork and sportsmanship.
There were impressive performances in the standing jump, triple jump, javelin and the ever-popular welly wanging, but what made the day truly special was seeing every child involved, encouraging one another and contributing to their teamβs success.
And to top it all off, our toddler race provided the perfect grand finale, delighting competitors and spectators alike!
A huge well done to all our pupils and thank you to staff, families and supporters who helped make the day such a memorable occasion.

ππ‘ Year 5 have been exploring En Ville (In Town)!
Our pupils put their detective skills to the test, using French dictionaries to discover new places and buildings to add to their own towns. But they quickly found that dictionaries are so much more than simple translations β helping them uncover word genders, word types and how words are used in real sentences.
β¨ With plenty of independence, curiosity and confidence, Year 5 took real pride in applying their new language skills and creating their own thriving French towns. Bravo, Year 5! π
