St Martin's CE Primary School

5JF got the chance to soak Miss Peers during a fun, outdoors Maths lesson. Two teams faced each other in a times table race. Whoever answered the question first got to throw a water balloon at Miss Peers. By the end, it was the whole class .vs. Miss Peers. Luckily, Mrs Paskin escaped with just wet feet!

It's not only our Year 6 that we say goodbye to today, some of our staff are moving on as well. We wish them all luck with their next adventure 👋👋👋

We had a lovely worship session this morning with Reverend Kate, to wish our Year 6 classes all the best for the future. GOOD LUCK YEAR 6! 🥳🙌🏆🥇

They did an amazing job! 👏👏👏
Thank you to parents and carers who supported out little fund raiser, we really appreciate it!

In Nursery today the children talked about what kindness meant and how to be a good friend. They then made friendship bracelets for each other, discussing together their likes and dislikes and then drawing pictures of what the other person liked on their bracelet.

During team time today, Eco Warriors have retrieved a bag full of litter from the playground... and this was just a fraction of the playground!
"I reckon we could have filled around 20 bags if we covered the whole playground and field" voice of a year 3 child.
Great work Eco Warriors! Working together to keep our green areas GREEN!♻️🐝🌱💚

Year 1 had a wonderful Sports Day. The children loved competing in all the activities and had lots of fun! They all tried their very best and made Miss Ferguson very proud. Well done Year 1🏃‍♂️🏅

Have you ever been made to feel less important than others? Today in our worship Reverend Kate told us a story from the letter of James in the Bible, one of Jesus' followers, about how it's wrong to show favouritism, like when someone is rich or someone is poor. Instead, like Jesus did, we should treat everyone with the same dignity and respect because everyone is special to God. Well done to the two children who helped act out the story.

The children have had a creative afternoon in year 5. They have been sketching the architecture of a Mosque! ☪️

Here are our fantastic achievers from Nursery, Reception and Key Stage One. You are all amazing. 🤩

Thank you to everyone who came to Hope in the Park yesterday. Our children did a FANTASIC job reading their poem written by one of our Year 5 children especially for the event. It was great to see so many of you there. Here are a few photos from the day and you can also see some more pictures on the Churches Together website here: http://www.churchestogetherbb.org.uk

A massive thank you for all your kind donations for Children's mental health week, our total was £174.00. We also raised £86 for the NSPCC's Big Breaktime last week. Both charities support children and young people in our communities with their mental health and wellbeing.

Year 5 enjoyed their 'NSPCC Big Break' yesterday. We took part in a friendship activity that enabled us to get to know somebody that we don't already know that well.
To embed this week's Christian value of 'Friendship', the children rotated around the class and had a chat to find out about their class friend's favourite game, favourite food, if they have ever been abroad and where and what their worst fear is. This activity created a lot of giggles, smiles and chats...(the pictures speak for themselves!).🤝👫👬💬😊

This week Lego club worked together to spell out their name using LEGO. It was great to see children from Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 all working together as a team 👏💜💙

Reception class decided to play hide and seek in the forest then football, tennis and duck, duck goose for the NSCPP 'Big Breaktime'.
We finished our lovely afternoon with a 'big breaktime biscuit'.
We had lots of fun!

This afternoon we had some special visitors join us in nursery to play board games as part of the NSPCC big break time! We all had so much fun playing board games together! Thank you so much to parents who signed up and those who wanted to but missed out, we will organise another parents day later in the term. 😃🎛
