Book Bingo
Tue 19 Mar 2024Home Reading Challenge
BOOK BINGO! We have run this initiative before, and it was a huge hit and the children really enjoyed taking part! On the below 3 images is the information for what you need to do.
Like any Bingo game, you want to complete as many of the squares as you can. Don’t worry, it isn’t a race… just enjoy reading a range of different fiction and non-fiction books with your child at home.
The children have the whole of this term to complete these challenges. Please share your photos from home on Seesaw, we love to see this and classes will be competing with each other to be the class with the most completed bingo boards by Easter!

NEW Toilets
Fri 15 Dec 2023NEW Toilets
As a school we have been very fortunate to have toilets in each classroom and not shared as most schools have in a communal year group area. Unfortunately, the toilets have over the last couple of years detreated and are no longer fit for purpose, but we still have facilities and the ratios are still at a legal threshold.
We have been in discussions with the Local Authority for nearly 2 years on this matter and we can happily tell you all we will be having new toilets in all of the classrooms and nursery.
This project is underway behind the scenes and we have been informed that the works will begin after April 2024, Once we have a definite date we will let you know. Due to the cost of the project the Local Authority could not do it before this date.
In the interim we have added the drawings and design below.
We appreciate that this has been tricky for some children but we hope you will appreciate that this situation has been out of the schools control as it has been with the Local Authority to resolve.
Should anyone have any questions on this matter please do not hesitate to contact Jane Smith the School Business manager.

#HelloYellow
Fri 13 Oct 2023On Tuesday the school looked like a sea of sunshine with many children and staff coming to school wearing yellow in recognition of Mental Health day. We joined with schools all over the country, raising awareness of the charity Young Minds, the importance of looking after our wellbeing, and talking about how we are feeling.
As well as many activities in class thinking about our wellbeing we were treated to a visit from local author Jo Jones who writes children’s self help books on. She brought along some friends who were helping each other when one was experiencing ‘the wobbles’. She also taught use some Makaton signs for a well known song about not worrying, because everything will be alright. We were thrilled as we already knew it! It was our Assembly piece of music this week – 3 Little Birds by Bob Marley.
For further details about what we do to help our children's mental health and wellbeing, head over to our page on the website, where you will also find the latest Wellbeing Newsletter.
