Our Year 6 pupils had a fantastic day at Magna, where they took part in the Big Circuits Workshop and explored the interactive Earth, Air, Fire and Water zones.

During the workshop, we learned about conductors and insulators and even made our own 'dimmer switch' using water and spoons!

The children also enjoyed exploring Magna's 4 zones which brought science, engineering and technology to life. And, of course, we ended the day on the muddiest playground we had ever seen! A great day had by all!

Well done, Year 6! ⭐🔬⚡️

Dear families!

Our first Parent Partnership Meeting (formerly the Parent Forum) of the year is happening on Friday 11th December at 9:15 AM!

This is a chance for us all to come together, catch up on school updates, and discover the exciting things happening as we work to make our school even better!

Parents, remember you can drop your little ones off at their class through their usual entrance, stay in their class and enjoy some morning learning fun with them, and then come down to the infant hall at 9:15 AM.

Looking forward to seeing you all there

Today we are taking time to think about all the brave service people who worked so hard to keep people safe in the past and have died. We keep all the families and children around the world who are affected by conflicts and wars in our thoughts, wishing them safety and peace.

By learning from the past, our children are growing up to be the peacemakers of tomorrow.

Dear families

Our Year 6 pupils have been busy creating their final art pieces using recycled plastic! After exploring the work of contemporary artists Ifeoma Anyaeji and Katherine Harvey, the children took inspiration from their innovative approaches to transforming everyday materials into beautiful works of art.

The pupils have shown fantastic creativity, imagination and a real understanding of how recycled materials can be used in art. We are so proud of their wonderful final pieces!
