Year 6 children have been exploring War of the Worlds  alongside history lessons on different wars and the symbolism of the poppy. In art, the children experimented with oil pastels and pencil crayons to design their own poppy sketches. In DT they practised sewing techniques like running stitch and back stitch on binca fabric. Using felt and embroidery thread, they created beautiful poppies, finishing them with buttons. The project culminated in a hands-on workshop where ch

We have hosted an exciting STEM Bridge Building Challenge, and the results were nothing short of incredible! Children put their engineering skills to the test by designing and building their own bridges using a variety of materials. From popsicle sticks to straws, glue, and tape, the creativity and ingenuity on display were truly impressive. Parents were invited to come and view the finished models, and it was wonderful to see everyone’s hard work come to life. The bridges we

Year 1 welcomed a visit from Dogs Trust. The children were taught how to stay safe around dogs and how to be responsible and kind when interacting with animals.

Year 1 enjoyed a fun and informative visit from Veolia, a company that works to improve and protect the environment. The visit supported the children’s Geography learning by helping them understand how our environment can be cared for, improved, and sustained.

Crossing the road safely is an essential skill and Year 1 have learned how to cross the road safely with our 'School Crossing Patrol' Officer. They were taught how to STOP, LOOK and LISTEN and how to find a safe place to cross. The children learnt through fun role play and even learnt a song to help them remember the rules of crossing the road safely! They can't wait to put their skills into practise on their next community walk.

Our local PCSO visited Year 4 to talk about staying safe online, including how to use social media responsibly and how to recognise and respond to cyberbullying.

Year 3 recently welcomed our local Police Community Support Officer (PCSO), who visited the children to talk about stranger danger and the importance of recognising safer strangers. During the session, the children listened attentively and took part in thoughtful discussions based on everyday situations. Together, they explored what to do if they ever feel worried or unsure, and who they can turn to for help. The PCSO explained that not all strangers are unsafe and supported

Children in Year 1 have been learning all about road safety. They explored how to stay safe near roads using the Green Cross Code. The children then put their learning into action by taking a walk around the local community, where they confidently identified different road signs and street names. Everyone showed excellent awareness and responsibility, making it a very successful and enjoyable learning experience.
