Week 3 June
Hello Sunshine!
Friday 20th June
What a beautiful week it’s been – full of sunshine and wonderful educational experiences!
Year 2 enjoyed a fantastic trip to the beach, making the most of the weather while deepening their learning.
Our Kingfisher pupils showed great team spirit and enthusiasm as they took part in a mini-Olympics, and Year 5 had the opportunity to put their language skills to the test while speaking French in Boulogne.
Back at school, Year 6 balanced brains and bravery – dissecting a sheep’s heart as part of their science curriculum while also rehearsing for their end-of-year performance of Oliver! (We are all looking forward to seeing them perform).
We hope you enjoy the extended long weekend and that the sunshine continues!
'Bring a Toy' Afternoon on Tuesday 1st July.
Following a request from the School Council and consultation with pupils, we are pleased to announce a Bring a Toy Afternoon on Tuesday 1st July.
What can children bring?
Pupils may bring one toy from the following categories:
- Mechanical toys
- Cuddly toys
- Fidget toys
- Dolls
- Games
- Collectable cards
Important Guidelines:
- No swapping of toys is allowed.
- Please do not send expensive, electronic, or activity- based toys (e.g., roller skates).
- Toys are brought in at your own risk.
- Ensure the toy is sent in a labelled carrier bag to help prevent loss.
Pupils who are unable to bring in a toy can play with toys that we have in school.
Thank you for your support in making this a fun and safe event for all!
