🚨 MYSTERY IN YEAR 3! 🚨

Something very strange happened at school overnight...
A slimy green trail was discovered leading from a playground drain, along with chewed pieces of golden toast and mysterious green footprints! The area was quickly cordoned off while staff investigated.

The trail continued down the Year 3 corridor and into the hall, where chaos had erupted! Chairs and tables were overturned, lunch crates had been thrown around, pages from Krindlekrax had been ripped up, and there was even a broken assembly screen!

Could the fearsome Krindlekrax have paid us a visit? 👀🐊
Year 3 are now taking on the role of police investigators and will be writing police reports to help track down the culprit before he terrorises the area again!

📸✨ Don’t forget – it’s our Year 6 Leavers’ Photos tomorrow! ✨📸

Make sure you come to school looking your best:
👕 Smart uniform
💇 Neat hair
😁 Your biggest smile!

We can’t wait to capture these special memories before our Year 6s move on to their next adventure! 🌟🎓

Some of our Year 6 children had a fantastic day at Solent University taking part in a variety of multi-sports activities. They enjoyed trying archery, axe throwing, cricket, indoor curling, and a range of team-building exercises.

The children represented our school brilliantly, showing great energy, effort, and teamwork throughout the day while working alongside pupils from other schools.

Well done to everyone involved – you should be very proud of yourselves! 👏🏹🏏

Visit from Corky!

Last week, Year 3 was very lucky to welcome Corky, who spent time with the children answering their fantastic questions about his adventures in the sewers and his encounter with the fearsome Krindlekrax! 🐊

The children were full of curiosity and loved hearing Corky's stories, learning more about the events from Krindlekrax, and discovering what it was really like exploring the dark tunnels beneath the town and coming face-to-face with the terrifying crocodile.

A huge thank you to Corky for sharing his experiences and inspiring our young readers. The children had a wonderful time and are even more excited to continue their reading journey! 📖⭐

🌟 We are so proud of Year 5 for their fantastic History learning this term, focusing on the Ancient Maya. The children have explored where the Maya civilisation was located, how the landscape shaped daily life, and how Maya society was ruled, including the role of kings and hierarchy.

🎨 As a cross-curricular link with Art, they also created beautiful Mayan stelae using clay, carefully choosing symbolic animals and vibrant colours. Their creativity, skill and attention to detail have been wonderful to see.

👏 Well done, Year 5 - your enthusiasm and hard work have shone through.

🌟 Reminder – Enterprise Day Tomorrow & Thursday! 🌟

As part of their PSHE learning, our fantastic Year 6 pupils are hosting an Enterprise Day at break time on Wednesday and Thursday!

There will be a variety of fun activities for children to enjoy, with all proceeds supporting their enterprise project.

💰 If your child would like to take part, please send them in with some loose change.
Thank you for supporting our wonderful Year 6 entrepreneurs – we can't wait for the fun to begin! 🎉

🌟 What a fantastic morning we've had so far at our Year 6 Sports Day! 🌟

The children have been busy running the heats for their races and taking part in a variety of field events. We've seen some amazing teamwork, great determination, and some impressive jumping and throwing performances throughout the morning.

Everyone is now taking a well-earned break to rest, hydrate, and stay cool before this afternoon's finals and relay races.

We can't wait to see what the rest of the day brings – good luck to all our competitors! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏅☀️

🏏 What a fantastic day at the Mixed Cricket Tournament! 🏏

We were incredibly proud of all our children, who demonstrated excellent batting, bowling and fielding throughout the day. Both teams showed great determination, teamwork and sportsmanship in every match.

Our A Team had an outstanding tournament, winning 4 matches and drawing 1, finishing an impressive 4th in the city. 👏

Our B Team also put in a brilliant performance, winning 2 great matches and securing 6th place in the city. 👏

A huge well done to everyone who took part and represented the school so brilliantly. You should all be very proud of your achievements! 🌟🏏

🏆 A big thank you to our fantastic site team for putting up our Sports Awards display for the children to enjoy! 🏅

What an amazing Egyptian Day we had at school before half term!✨

The children looked fantastic in their incredible costumes, and it was wonderful to see so much creativity and enthusiasm throughout the whole day. Everyone had great fun learning about Ancient Egyptian pyramids and designing and creating their very own shell structure pyramids! 🔺

A huge well done to all the children for their hard work and imagination, and thank you to families for helping with the brilliant costumes. It was a day full of fun, learning, and unforgettable memories!
