      Dear Parents and Families,

      A very Happy New Year! As we step into this promising new year, I hope you and your family had a restful and joyful Christmas break. It is certainly a time of fresh starts and new beginnings, and we are excited to welcome pupils back, energised and ready to learn. Let's embrace the opportunities this year brings, supporting each other to make it a fantastic year for our entire school community.

    • Scientists From Cambridge University.

      Published 13/12/23

       

      Today Year 6 had a visit from some female scientists currently working at Cambridge University. They ran a Physics workshop with the children where they were challenged to try and power calculators and buzzers using only coins, cardboard and foil as the cell. The children also used voltage metres to measure the power of their cell. This all consolidated the learning they have been doing on Electricity this half term.
      It was great to see Year 6 ending the session by asking the visitors some wonderful questions about their current research projects.

      Published 22/11/23

      Last week we celebrated Talk Money Week. Children spent the week talking about money and thinking of one thing they could do to improve their understanding of money.

      We held a competition to design a new coin to coincide with the new coin designs, overseen by King Charles, which are being released at the end of the year.

      The first place winner was Subhan in Turtle class; second place was Aras in Lobster class; and third place was Archie in Barracuda class.
