We’re excited to be supporting Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day again this year! 
Pupils (and staff) are invited to wear a jumper of their choice — Christmas-themed, sparkly, silly or simply their favourite cosy one. All we ask is that pupils bring in £1, which goes directly to Save the Children and the brilliant work they do. 
As part of year 4’s Geography unit ‘Where our food comes from’, we looked at different food products such as bananas, avocados and red meats and plotted their country of origin on a world map. We then measured the distance from here to the U.K. with our rulers and used a scale bar (1cm = 8000km) to work out the total food miles of the product before it gets to our mouths!
The children loved this activity and not only did it teach us key vocabulary like ‘air freight’, ‘carbon footprint’, ‘importation’ and ‘food miles’ but it also intertwined some key maths knowledge too!
Our KS1 Film Night was a huge success! The children loved getting cosy to watch Arthur Christmas, and there were plenty of smiles, giggles and festive fun all evening. 
A huge thank you to all the staff who supported the evening — we couldn’t do it without you! 
What a brilliant way to kick off the Christmas season!

Our Breakfast Club children have been getting festive this week, designing and creating their very own Christmas badges!
From sparkly snowflakes to cheeky elves, they've loved getting creative and showing off their brilliant ideas. We’re so proud of their fantastic work — what a lovely way to start the day! 
On Tuesday, Year 5 carried out a geography fieldwork task to explore the facilities available in our local area. The children used OS maps and questionnaires to collect and record their data, developing their map-reading and enquiry skills along the way. After all their hard work, they enjoyed a well-earned visit to the playground at the end of the session.
Our KS1 Arts & Crafts Club has been busy this week! 
The children have been designing and making their very own hats — lots of colour, creativity and big smiles all round.
We love seeing their imaginations shine! 
Year 3 joined Year 5 in Computing yesterday for a brilliant collaboration!
Our Year 5 pupils have been creating their own Scratch maze games, and Year 3 were invited in to test them out. 
There was lots of problem-solving, teamwork and plenty of excitement as the younger pupils put the games through their paces. Well done to everyone involved!
