Sponsored Walk

What an amazing turn out for our sponsored walk this morning. It was a fantastic event that raised £2,833.50 for our sensory room. Thank you everyone for joining us. 


Fund Raising Thank You

I have just had the privilege of counting the money raised for our sponsored walk on Monday. Well, what can I say? You have raised £2,618.50 so far by sponsoring your child to walk around Gorse Hall. The Year 6 children have mapped the route this morning and are eager to marshal the event. We are so grateful for your generosity. Whenever you pop into school, please have a look at how our sensory room is developing.  I look forward to seeing a lot of you on Monday morning when you join us on the sponsored walk. Dress up warmly as there is a slight chance of rain.

Workshop with Greg Jenner

Year 4 loved their online workshop with author and historian, Greg Jenner. They told him so many facts they remembered about the Romans and the Stone Age and learnt how he uses his history knowledge to write childrens books. He has even been involved in Horrible Histories!


Play performances

Year 4 have worked so hard in groups to write and perform play scripts based on a picture from 'The Mysteries of Harris Burdick'. It was lovely to see how each group interpreted the picture in different ways!
