Our new sensory room...The Cosy Cave.

The name of the new sensory room is...The Cosy Cave. As voted and created by our pupils. We are having a special sign created for this. The old computing room in KS2 has been cleared of all IT equipment, repainted and new furniture and resources have been purchased to make a calming space. We just wanted send an enormous thank you to our community your generosity developing our new sensory room. We also want to thank Lifeline4Kids, who also donated to the room, which again is fantastic.


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.

Growing Beans

Reception have been learning all about plants and the things they need to grow. We have been reading Jack and the Beanstalk and have even planted our own beans. We are recording their progress in our bean diaries. I wonder whose will grow tallest?


Fabulous Football

Reception love their sessions with Coach Jess from City in the Community. This week, we were collecting cones Sonic the Hedgehog style. 


Sunflowers

Reception have been learning all about plants and what they need to grow.

We have looked at Vincent Van Gough's famous sunflowers painting and made our own collages based on his work.


Daily reading in reception.

Everyday this week our year 5s have popped down to reception to read with our pupils. The children are supporting and guiding each other. It is just magical to watch.


MTP - Summer 1

Welcome back everyone.

I hope you all had a fantastic Easter break.

This half term, we will be learning about growing.  I have attached the medium term plan and a home learning grid for anyone wanting to do some additional home learning (this is entirely optional)

Reading day is Tuesday, please ensure books are in bags so they can be changed

Kind regards

Easter Fun

Reception have loved learning all about Easter and the Easter story. We have made some eggcellent Easter cards, sampled hot cross buns, made Easter nests and we all looked fabulous in our Easter bonnets. Well done to our competition winners.
