π€ΈββοΈπ "Year 5 had a fantastic time taking part in fitness circuits led by former Commonwealth Games gymnast Steve Frew! The children showed great determination and enthusiasm as they challenged themselves throughout the session. Steve also shared an inspiring talk about perseverance, encouraging the children to keep trying, work hard and never give up on their goals. We are incredibly proud of the effort and enthusiasm shown by Year 5 throughout this memorable day. Thank you, Steve, for inspiring us all!" ~ Ms Edwards-Tyndale

ππ©βπ³ "Reception Sycamore had a fantastic time making their very own pizzas last week! The children learnt how to measure ingredients, including flour, yoghurt and cheese, before preparing their pizzas and cooking them in the oven. What a brilliant hands-on activity to develop their measuring skills and confidence in the kitchen. The best part was getting to taste their delicious creations!" ~ Miss Rani

π€Ίπ "Our Year 3 Chestnut children have been doing a fantastic job in their fencing lessons! They have shown wonderful enthusiasm and determination as they develop their footwork, coordination, balance and fencing techniques. It has been brilliant to see their confidence grow while also learning the importance of concentration, listening carefully, following instructions and showing respect for their opponents. Most importantly, the children have been having lots of fun, challenging themselves and supporting one another. We are incredibly proud of the effort and positive attitude they bring to every lesson. Well done, Chestnut Class!" ~ Mr Fagan-Cooper

It was a fantastic opportunity to hear first-hand about childhood in the past and compare it with our lives today!" ~ Miss Zeenat

π¬π "Elder class enjoyed an engaging and interactive Science lesson all about digestion! The pupils explored the digestive system and demonstrated how food travels through the body, passing through organs such as the oesophagus and stomach before nutrients are absorbed and waste is expelled. The class were fascinated by the process and eagerly got involved throughout the lesson, showing lots of enthusiasm and curiosity as they discovered the incredible journey food takes through the human body. What a fun and memorable way to bring Science learning to life!" ~ Mrs Barrett-Simmons
