YEAR 6 LEAVERS 2022 What an emotional day!  We wish our Year 6's a happy and successful future.  We know you will enjoy this next phase of your life! Good luck and come back and see us please :-)

Yesterday Year 6 celebrated coming to the end of the school year with a special Circus Workshop. They learnt how to juggle, spin plates, use diablos and even walk on stilts! We then all went over to the field for a picnic and games afternoon - it was a great chance for us all to be together before our final day in Y6.  We've got our tissues ready!

Year 3 held their assembly last week to showcase all of their hard work. We were treated to performances of the songs the children have been learning as well as short presentations of what recorder club has meant to them this year.  It was a wonderful performance and everyone who took part should be incredibly proud of themselves. It certainly looks like we have many talented musicians in Year 3!  Bravo!

On Thursday the 14th of July we held our annual French Day to celebrate Bastille Day. We had lots of fun taking part in a variety of French activities and dressed up in red, white and blue for the day. Lots of us said that our favourite activity was trying French food in the café. We got to try baguette, French cheese and croissants. In class we learnt about the history of Bastille Day, famous landmarks, famous French people and we used the Chromebooks to practise French. Some of the year 6 pupils had a special job helping us play French games. These included lots of fun activities such as boules and buying fruit and vegetables using our French conversation skills. Overall, French Day gave us an opportunity to learn more about France and practise our language skills. Vive La France!
