It is sad that we are unable to welcome potential new families to view the school currently. However, the following video has been created to expalin to potential new nursery familes what we are all about: The admissions pages of our website are linked here: We look forward, as always, to welcoming new and familiar families to our community.

Leavers 2019

Farewell, good luck and God bless you, Year 6! On Friday morning we gathered as a whole school community children, staff and parents to say farewell to our friends in Year 6 as they prepared for the next stage of their exciting journey. As the hall filled (it was a tight squeeze!), we looked at pictures of our friends throughout their time at our school. I've had to split the film into two clips to share it on this platform ... Mr Crump and Mrs Glover reminded us of the absolute potential of each and every one of our pupils through reading 'What if ...' by Jackie French Koller ... including ... What if Einstein never used his brain or the Wright brothers never tried to fly a plane? What if Beethoven never tried to play? What if Motehr Teresa turned away?

Recently we been reflecting on the development of the reading journey, particularly in relation to the environment for reading. Organised and comfortable spaces to read are so important as is the selection of the right inspiring texts to tempt the reading habit. Over the course of this term, we hope that the children will become more accomplished with recommending texts, authors and genres for each other. Our book areas reflect this. Maybe you'd like to journey with us through these environments. The two films below reflect the journey in each key stage that staff took together when thinking about the environment this term. Enjoy the journey! In the EYFS and KS1 it looks like this ... In KS2 it looks like this ... To check out the 'Recommended Reading Lists' for each class, v...
