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.

Dear Parents and Carers, We are delighted to announce that our school will be hosting a Scholastic Book Fair. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to discover new books, foster a love of reading, and help support our school. The Book Fair not only encourages reading for enjoyment but also raises valuable funds that will be used to purchase new books for our library and classrooms. Book Fair Details: Date(s): Monday 16th March, Tuesday 17th March and Thursday 19th March. Time(s): 8:00-8:30am and 3:00-3:45pm. Location: Year 5 and 6 learning space (upstairs past the school office) Students and families are warmly invited to attend before or after school. Payments can only be made via card as we are now a cashless school. More information about online payment options will be shared closer to the event. Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to seeing you at the Book Fair and appreciate your help in making this event a success. Kind regards, Miss Harris. Year 5 teacher and English lead.

Year 2 have had a very creative term 🎨 We enjoyed learning about the artist William Morris and had a go at printing to create our own wall paper, inspired by his love of nature and repeating patterns. We also loved performing our puppet show with our very own felt puppets, linked to the story ‘Oh Dear!’ Well done year 2 👏🏼

We took 2 combined yr3/4 teams to a tournament today at Marjons. Despite drizzly weather all day, both teams were excellent and qualified from their groups. As predicted, they ended up having to play each other in the quarter finals. After winning the quarters our Manadon 'Athletic' team went on to win their semi final 2-1 Vs Leigham and then also win the final 2-1 Vs Widey. Well done to both teams! And a special well done for winning the tournament!
