Year 5 Dragons' Den Presentations
11 November 2014In Term 1 children in Year 5 and 6 learnt all about Fair Trade. At the end of the term they had to design their own fair trade chocolate with packaging and make a pitch to a "Dragon" about why their product was better than everyone else's! Watch the video to get a flavour of the event!
Year One have been to space!
11 November 2014Year One have been to space! On Tuesday 4th November we had a special visit from Space Dome. Inside the dome the children put on their space suits and helped steer a rocket to the moon! We had to be careful when landing, so we avoided the craters. From the rocket we could see stars, moons and planets including planet Earth. The stars joined together to make pictures. We could see a snake, a bear, a mermaid and even a dragon. The children also experienced what it would be like to walk on the moon and watched a video of Neil Armstrong landing on the moon, saying the famous words 'One small step for man, one big step step for mankind'. He was the was first man to land on the moon. It was a very exciting day for Year One.
Viking Visit!
11 November 2014To mark the start of their new topic, Year 5 and 6 received a surprise on Tuesday when they were raided by a Viking warrior named Hrothgar! After capturing the children, Hrothgar brought them to his camp and taught them about Viking weapons, games, gods and even funerals. A fun day was had by all and the children were buzzing with excitement to learn more about Viking life as they prepare to host their very own museum at the end of term.
Our trip to Bath!
24 October 2014On 21st October 33 lucky children (and lots of helpers!) enjoyed a trip to Bath. This was sponsored by our business friends Deloitte, to reward some of the children whose behaviour was excellent last school year. We visited the Royal Crescent Museum and had a picnic lunch at the Royal Crescent hotel! Here are some pictures from the day:
We even managed to fit in a quick visit to the park!

Day 2: Everyone got some sleep and after breakfast the dormitory inspectors came round!. The children made rockets and launched them, to see which was the toughest. Karima and Hamda's rocket went almost to the moon!
Everyone is well. We picked lots of blackberries for tea. Many games have been played, many songs sung and much fun has been had by all. We ended the day with a great game of 'The Best Game in the World Ever!!'.
More news tomorrow!
Green noses... versus the red and blue noses...
Day 1: Our first day of camp was beautiful! The weather was lovely and the countryside looked beautiful. We settled in, met our monitors and enjoyed lots of games. The smiles of the children said it all.
