Team 2 are collecting empty cereal boxes for our Great Fire of London topic next term. If you have any spare at home, we would really appreciate you sending them into school. Thank you!

With some rainy and unsettled weather on the way, please can we remind all families to send children in with a coat every day. Even when it's drizzly, we still make the most of outdoor play and learning, so having the right clothing helps everyone stay warm, dry and comfortable. Thank you for your support!

So lovely to get outside where we've made some bug hotels at make and grow club tonight, one of us has even got our first customer!

Next week, our year 5 and 6 children will become scientists as they investigate thermal insulators through a fun real-life challenge! They will test different cups and materials to discover which keeps drinks warmer for longer while staying safe to hold. We can't wait to see their scientific thinking and teamwork in action! #beinschool

Year 5/6 took part in a really informative workshop today all about malicious communication and staying safe online. We discussed how we use social media and group chats, explored some of the worries and concerns that can arise and talked about ways to manage and use social media and group chats safely and responsibly. A really valuable session with lots of thoughtful discussions from the children. A huge thank you to Dan from the Stay Safe Partnership for leading such an engaging and informative workshop.

What a lovely way for our Year 6s to end the week receiving their Year 6 leavers hoodies! They all look absolutely fantastic and wore them with pride. Such a special milestone as they make memories together in their final term with us!
