🌞Year 2 Parents reminder🌞 We are really excited about our Plymouth Hoe trip Tomorrow!!! The children can wear sensible mufti clothes and shoes/trainers. It looks like it will be a hot day so please ensure shoulders are covered and no sandals/flip flops. All children will need to wear a sun hat please. Please can you ensure that your child has sunscreen applied before coming to school and they can bring some cream in a named bottle for topping up if necessary during the day in their rucksack. Lunch is being provided by Harbourside Fish and Chip shop but please provide plenty of water for your child.🐟🍟 The school day will begin and finish at normal time. Thankyou The Year 2 team

3H enjoyed their introduction to Scratch today in Computing. They explored how to add a new sprite and backdrop, as well as adding move commands. Fantastic work Year 3!

Who’s excited for Saturday?!🥳

Year 5 children can bring in their musical instruments tomorrow for our music lesson if they wish.

The girls are bitterly disappointed after losing their quarter final cup game 5-4. It was incredibly close and of an amazingly high standard. It was such a pleasure to watch this game, even though they lost. Most of these girls will have another chance next year though!

👩‍🎨🎨Ocean Art Day Monday 17th June 🌊👨‍🎨 On Monday 17th June, the whole school will be participating in an Ocean Art Day. During the day, we will all be exploring the artists Kim and Kay Vaudin– a mother and daughter team who have a studio in Plymouth. Their art is inspired by the ocean and fits perfectly with our Ocean Curriculum. This is an event taking place during the school day. We can't wait to share our creations with you on Tuesday 25th June at 3.15pm in our school art gallery 🖼️

Outdoor Adventurous Activities (OAA) is part of our PE curriculum and this morning Year 2 used position and directional language to navigate their blindfolded peers through an obstacle course.

Well done to all the children that represented the school at Brickfields in the athletics competition. This is very competitive event, welcoming the fastest children from Plymouth and surrounding areas. Just qualifying for the finals is very tough! A particular, extra well done, must go to Islay and Ben for securing medals in their finals 🎉🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏾

Thank you to all of our wonderful parents and carers who have supported the Manadon Vale PTFA by donating something and dressing up in their classes' chosen colour. What an amazing rainbow of colour! 🌈 💙💜💚❤️🩷🧡💛 🏳️‍🌈
