HAPPY HOLIDAYS

It's the last day of term, and we want to say a huge WELL DONE to all our pupils for all their hard work this year!

We hope you all have a fantastic summer and we'll see most of you again in September. We also wish Year Six best of luck at secondary school next year - we'll miss you!

Although we only held a half-day Sports Day this year, it was a fantastic success!

The event got off to a wonderful start with the children’s opening dance, which brought energy, excitement and plenty of smiles from the crowd.

Everyone enjoyed the fast-paced schedule, the inclusive range of activities, and the exciting races throughout the morning. The addition of the competitive 400m event brought an extra buzz to the day and was a particular highlight for many.

A huge well done to all of our children for their enthusiasm, determination and excellent sportsmanship throughout the event. Thank you to all the parents and carers who came along to cheer on and support the children. Your encouragement helped make it such a memorable and enjoyable occasion for everyone.

This term, Year 1/2 pupils have been learning to create their own eBooks in Computing. They explored how to add text, insert images, change backgrounds, and customise their pages. The children showed great creativity and confidence, producing fantastic digital books to share.

Year 6 staged their end of year production of School of Rock.

Each and every one of them was fantastic. The dedication they’ve shown over the last couple of months, learning all of their lines and songs, has been wonderful to watch. And then throughout all of last week in rehearsals, they brought energy, enthusiasm and passion, resulting in a truly brilliant show. Also a huge shout out to Mia for being there through the whole thing and helping to make the show the best it could be. Year 6 should all be so proud of themselves.

There’ll be a big hole at Solebay come September, but we wish them all the best as they enter their next chapters!

Some of our Year 5 and Year 6 pupils brightened the Sonali Gardens Day Centre this week with a fantastic afternoon of dance, poetry reading and games.

Pupils performed a dance piece and read out poems. The pupils also shared tea and biscuits with the service users and enjoyed spending time with them making puzzles, colouring in and playing snakes and ladders. Thank you to the day centre and Year 5 and 6 pupils for making it such a heartwarming experience!

Year 5 had a great time this week at the Mile End Pavilion Adventure Park.

Y2/3 have been practicing the opening dance for Sports Day - Dai Dai Dai, Iko, Dale, Allez, Let’s Go!
