Harvest

Thank to everyone who supported our Harvest Assembly this year. Key Stage 1 contributions of tinned good and toiletries were warmly welcomed by the Padley Centre who help the homeless. With golbal issues in mind, Key Stage 2 supported UNICEF with a financial contribution that will go towards the East AFrica appeal.

Enrichment

The sun was warm and bright for our Environment Enrichment afternoons this week. The school grounds were busier than ever before as all our pupils got involved with a range of activities from tub planting to tree mobiles, mini beast and scavenger hunts to cooking from the forest garden and pond dipping to stick art sculptures.

Thank you to all the parents and helpers who supported the children in having a fantasic couple of afternoons.

School Council

A new school year always sees our pupils voting for a new School Council. This year Amanveer takes on the role of Chair, supported by Jo and Abbie as ice CHairs. Ben takes on the role of Treasurer and Osama is the new Secretary.

Well done, we are confident you will all do an excellent job!

Global Children's Challenge

The Global Children's Challenge has begun! All our Year 4, 5 and 6 pupils (and their teachers!) all have their pedometers and are walking on their 'virtual' journey around the world. The challenge began on Thursday 15th September and will finish on Thursday 3rd November. All classes will record their steps daily on the GCC website which will track their journey around the world as they learn about health, nutrition, exercise and the places they visit on their 'virtual' walk.

Come back to the blog soon to find out how our pupils are getting on!
