Rights Respecting Schools Award

Art, craft and design embody some of the highest forms of human creativity. A high-quality art and design education should engage, inspire and challenge pupils, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own works of art, craft and design. As pupils progress, they should be able to think critically and develop a more rigorous understanding of art and design. They should also know how art and design both reflect and shape our history, and contribute to the culture, creativity and wealth of our nation.

⭐️Foundation Stage learning ⭐️ We have been very busy over the last month learning about life cycles, new life, Dinosaurs and have enjoyed some courtyard fun. We have been finding out about Pancake day and Lunar New Year. We have enjoyed making binoculars to use for our very own Dinosaur hunt around the school 🦖 We have a butterfly garden so we can’t wait to watch them grow over the next few weeks 🦋 Super learning Turtles and Seahorses.

Year 6 made a MASSIVE £417.90 for St Luke's Hospice at their PSHE Charity Fair today. The Year 6 team are blown away by the children's commitment, creativity and of course the generosity of parents and carers. We never expected it to be this successful and it is because of all of you. Thank you so much for your support.

Years 3,4 and 5 parents!! Please remember tomorrow is the Year 6 charity fair. We will be inviting children to the year 6 classrooms tomorrow to purchase any items that are on offer. Please remember we do not have a float so small change is really essential if they wish to purchase any items. There is absolutely no pressure to purchase. The children are just really excited to show what they have created. If your child has any allergies or food intolerances please do not purchase any home made goods as we cannot guarantee the ingredients. Thank you for all your support. The children cannot wait!!
