Today we had a visitor from Tameside Libraries who introduced the new Summer Reading Challenge which is now open to enter. This summer, join the Ready, Set, Read! team and their animal mascots for the Reading Challenge as they use their skills to weave their way through a summer obstacle course. The Challenge will celebrate play and participation, encouraging you to engage in games and sports in any way that best suits you!
Some of our KS2 children took part in a cheerleading competition this afternoon where they came 6th out of 12 schools! They did a great job cheering on all the other schools too and even made signs. Well done everyone, you did the school proud!

Year 5's Taster Day at Rayner Stephens today was fantastic and certainly a day to remember! From using the Bunsen burners in the Science Lab, to using the vices and coping saws in Design & Technology, the children had a brilliant day! They also enjoyed using frogs and counters in Maths to work out Quadratic Equations, whilst in Drama they put their listening skills and team work to the test. Great fun was had by all! Thank you to all of the teachers and pupils involved at Rayner Stephens for organising a superb day and a massive thank you to Year 5 who made us all very proud with th

Year 5 enjoyed making 2D shapes on their pin boards last week! They made regular shapes, irregular shapes and various different types of triangles including Isosceles, Equilateral and Scalene. They also drew and measured the area of their hands and we found out that taller children have the largest hand area! Great mathematical work Year 5! Mrs Blomeley

Year 5 had been looking forward to the planned picnic as part of the school's 50th Anniversay celebrations! The day didn't disappoint! They loved it! After finding the perfect spot to lay their picnic blankets, Year 5 ate their food and enjoyed the sunshine. They then headed off for fun and games, including Tug of War, Welly Throwing, Sack Racing and Skipping! It was such a fun afternoon, spending time outside with the whole school! Thank you to everyone who helped to make this happen! Mrs Blomeley
