Cockington Primary School

Year 5 residential - day one!

Grenville House Outdoor Education Centre

We are incredibly proud of our Year 5/6 netball teams, who represented Cockington Primary School brilliantly at the School Games netball tournament yesterday! 🏐

We entered two teams, and both showed fantastic teamwork, determination and sportsmanship throughout the day. Their hard work paid off, with one of our teams securing bronze medals 🥉

A huge well done to all of the children involved – you represented our school wonderfully and made us all very proud! 👏

The Performing Arts Club recorded a special performance of the chorus of 'Let It Go' today. We've entered it into the Twinkl competition to win a trip to Disneyland Paris! Keep your fingers crossed for us.

Congratulations to our values award winners this week!

Angela was a finalist in the BBC 500 Words competition with her brilliant short story, Scruffy Savior. 📚

Her story showed fantastic imagination and creativity, perfectly reflecting our school values through Creative Colin and Aspirational Annie.

As part of this amazing achievement, Angela was invited to a special celebration at Windsor Castle — an unforgettable experience and a very well-deserved honour.

Our Year 6 children went on a visit to Plymouth National Marine Aquarium earlier in the week. The children's behaviour was great, the children asked brilliant questions and they all had a fantastic day! The teachers are now looking forward to reflecting on all that they learned during their geography and science lessons this half term.

World Book Day!
We have been enjoying immersing ourselves into the book 'Shh! We have a plan'. The school staff have dressed up from the characters of the book.
We have also enjoyed reading and sharing books. We will be continuing to share and write stories over the next couple of days.
Thank you to those of you who bought books at our book fair and persevered with the signal! We raised enough money to allow us to spend £173.74 on books for the school.
