  On Friday, children in years 4,5 and 6 took part in a continuous cycle challenge as part of our support for Children In Need. The children took turns to cycle continuously from 7am to 3pm in short shifts of either 2km, 2 minutes or 4 minutes. Together, the children managed to cycle exactly 100 miles and raised £274.25. A great job by everyone.

  Tue 12 Nov 2024 Dan Simson

  Yr 6 had a great trip to Cardiff Castle last week as an introduction to their new topic on World War 2. This immersive day looked at life of an evacuee and how cities like Cardiff were affected. The trip included a stunning 1 hour monologue by the tour guide who held the year group in the palm of his hands with expert storytelling and bringing the past back to life. It was trip enjoyed by all.

• Magdalen Farm Residential for Year 5

  Mon 30 Sep 2024 Dan Simson

  Year 5 had the most wonderful time at Magdalen Farm in North Dorset last week. The 24 hour residential included feeding animals, den building, sampling and picking fruit and vegetables and energetic singing around the campfire. The children were fantastic, rising to the challenges of the residential and sharing in  their excitement with one another. It was a much needed and wholesome trip for all and our thanks in particular go to the adults who took time away form their own families to be with the children. If you wish to see the photos of the day, check out the Year 5 page under Year groups.
