Year 1 and Year 6 had a great time taking part in the Santa Dash on Friday - even Mrs Parker took part! They showed fantastic perseverance and teamwork and their were some amazing Christmas outfits too! A big thank you to the sports leaders who helped to run the event, you were amazing!


Urban Extreme Dance Fest

KS2 pupils took part in the Urban Extreme Dance Fest on Wednesday. They have been working very hard perfecting their street dance routine in their afterschool club on a Friday and they came an amazing 4th place! Their routine was jam packed with skills including the worm and forward walkovers; there were lots of solo and duet sections and many great transitions into different formations. They also got the trophy for the best team spirit and were very encouraging of each other in the preperation for the competition and also of other schools on the competition day. Well done everyone! 


Sport's Ambassadors take over...

Today the Year 6 Sport's Ambassador delivered the PE lesson. They played a few warm up games and then organised the class into teams to play bench football.

They are all great leaders!

Urban Dance Festival

Well done to all the children who took part in the Urban Dance Festival yesterday. We came 4th overall and also won a Team Spirit Award. Our year 6 children couldn't wait to hold the huge trophy today. 


What a relief!

As part of our geography topic we have learned about Ordnance Survey symbols and maps including contour rings to show height on a map. We have then worked collaboratively to create relief maps. They look amazing.

Year 6 enjoyed their online session with author Sarah Horne today. She wrote and illustrated "The Firefly's Light." Today we had a go at creating her crab character- they were crab-solutely amazing!
