Why DID the Anglo Saxons invade Britain?

Year 5 have got off to a great start with their new topic!  They used clues and sorting cards to discuss  reasons why the Anglo Saxons invaded Britain?  Were they pushed?  Or were they pulled? Year 5 used their investigative skills to come to a logical conclusion and to move on to their next question - just who were the Anglo Saxons?     Mrs Blomeley                     


Quick Cricket in Year 5!

Year 5 demonstrated their brilliant Quick Cricket skills in PE this week!  Last week they practised their batting, bowling and fielding skills - this week they put them to the test by playing inter team matches.  We have some amazing and exciting team players who show the utmost respect to their  classmates. Well done Year 5!  Mrs Blomeley

Our year 5 pupils are helping keep our grounds safe and clear. Each week a group of helpful pupils help me make our school tidy. Thank you year 5! 


World Book Day events 2022

To celebrate World Book Day today our Y6 Librarians hosted a competition during lunchtime where children across the school had to guess the title of a book by looking at a small picture clue from the front cover. The girls were really helpful organising this and gave up their lunch time to work with the children to complete their entries. Well done ladies!

The winners will be announced soon....

KS2 also had the opportunity to take part in a virtual assembly with poet Michael Rosen. Some of our favourite poems were 'Chocolate Cake' and 'Don't breathe'


Matt Goodfellow Visit 2022

We were all certianly inspired by poet Matt this week. He performed his poems so well with humour and spirit and there was lots of laughter in both the KS1 and KS2 assemblies this week. 

All classes had the amazing opportunity to create poems with Matt in their class workshops too. Year 6 really enjoyed this and were keen to share their finished poems with him at the end of the sessions.

I hope those who bought a copy of his book 'Bright Bursts of Colour' have enjoyed reading it. 


Poetry Workshop with Matt Goodfellow!

Year 5 were most impressed with Matt Goodfellow yesterday!  First with his amazing assembly, were he shared some of his poems about life, and then in the class workshop when the clhildren became poets themselves by writing about fun things in life!  Matt was inspirational and Year 5 are looking forward to completing their poems during the week. Mrs Blomeley.


Exhibition for Amazing Artists!

Year 5 worked so hard to complete their Rainforest paintings in the style of Henri Rousseau!  They did an amazing job and it was brilliant to see their finished artwork on display amongst the fantastic work from the other classes in school.  Brilliant work by everyone - well done!  Mrs Blomeley.


Bikeability Day 2!

 Eventually the sun came out for Year 5 to complete their Bikeability training!   Bikeability is designed to give young people the skills and confidence to cycle safely on today's challenging roads. On Day 2, the groups went out onto the local roads to put their new skills into practise.  I am proud to say they all achieved their Bikeability certificates and badges!  Brilliant work Year 5!  Well done!  Mrs Blomelet
