• Athletics Success!

  Wed 25 Jan 2017
  Twelve of our Y5/6 children represented the school in the first round of the Hampshire Indoor Athletics competition. The children put in some excellent track and field performances- particularly in the relay with some brilliant baton changes which was a result of all the practice in running club! Overall we came second which meant we have qualified for the next round! This is a great achievement and we will be working hard to ensure we can do as well as we can. Well done to the whole team!

• Uganda Day

  Wed 25 Jan 2017
  We had a very successful Uganda day on Tuesday. The children researched about Uganda and were involved in making quizzes and compiling fact sheets to share their knowledge. We had a visit from Dodie who shared with us some photographs of our link school, Kawoko, from her last visit in October. She talked about the changes the school has made using the funding we have been able to give them- projects include a clean water storage tank, four lights for the classrooms and some pigs! We raised over £100 by wearing red, yellow and black to school and we know it will be put to good use. We also made two books about our school and left blank pages for our friends at Kawoko to write in about their school. Each school will then keep one of these books in their school so we can read and learn about each other. Dodie will be taking these to Uganda in February. We look forward to sharing them with the children next term.

• Competition Time!

  Tue 10 Jan 2017
  We have asked all pupils to submit a design for the outside area by Oak and Acorn classes. We want to redevelop this learning environment for our younger pupils. This morning we had our first two entries- and there were some amazing ideas (the zip wire is my favourite!) included. Get thinking about how we can improve this space and hand entries in by Monday 16th January!

• Happy New Year!

  Fri 06 Jan 2017
  Happy New Year to you all! The school year has started well with children settling straight into their learning and beginning exciting new topics: Ancient Greece and Egypt, Puppets and a Winter Wonderland! This last one really reflects the temperatures we have at the moment- please ensure your child comes to school with a warm coat. We have a whole range of clubs beginning next week and hopefully every child has wanted to join at least one- getting involved in wider school life can make a real difference to how well a child achieves overall.
