With Christ at our side to guide us,
we shine in all that we do.
We had an action packed few days on this year’s residential. The children took part in every activity with a smile on their face (even the Piranha Pool!) and great determination. They were well-mannered and a pleasure to spend time with. We hope they enjoyed the trip as much as we did!

This week in PSHE, Marie from the Healthy Minds Team, taught us about our worries. She reassured us that everyone worries and taught us how to control how we deal with strong feelings.
Well done to all the children in Year 5 for taking part in our Class Liturgy on Hope. You all read and sang beautifully.
Our children enjoyed a two-night residential at Robinwood. They were very well-behaved and showed great determination and resilience throughout the activities. We hope they had as much fun as the staff did!
Year 6 were over the moon as their hoodies arrived this morning!
Year 6 have had lots of fun learning samba in PE this half term, they have shown lots of energy and enthusiasm and I think you’ll agree our final performances are excellent!
Year 5 visited the National Glass Centre as part of our Science topic ‘Properties and changes of materials.’
First, the children took part in a changing states workshop in wit which they made predictions about experiments, carried them out then wrote their conclusions. I was very impressed at the scientific vocabulary they used and how keen they were to make sure it was a fair test.
Next, we watched a glass blowing demonstration. The children were really engaged with this session and it was lovely to hear them wondering what the final piece would be.
Finally, the children took part in a glass fusing workshop in which they drafted their designs then brought them to life with small glass tiles and frit. We put them in the kiln and will pick them up when they are ready. We can’t wait to see the final results!
Well done for another fabulous day, Year 5. You are superstars!
