Cre8ability
This week is our last Cre8ability session. We discussed what we could do when we feel different feelings. To cheer ourselves up, Harry said we could watch a film, Jacob said we could play together, Hendrix said we could go out for a walk and April said we could comfort someone. When we feel an emotion, it takes a minute and a half for us to feel an emotion and then it is the thinking time that happens after which makes an emotion linger. We created a lovely weaving craft today. Thank you so much to Carol and Maria for running such a wonderful group.
Choir - Let’s Go Sing workshop
Choir took part in their first Let’s Go Sing workshop in preparation for their concern in March next year. Rose was super impressed with how much they have learnt in such a short space of time! They represented our school brilliantly and demonstrated so many of our Christian Values throughout the workshop, showing lots of courage and respect. I have no doubt that they will be amazing on the stage when we get to Blackpool! Well done choir!
Foodie Friends After- School Club- Making chocolate and plain cupcakes.
Our little chefs had a blast baking cupcakes today! They weighed ingredients, cracked eggs, and carefully filled cupcake liners with chocolate and plain batter.
Cre8ability
This week at Cre8ability we focussed on who our special people are. We discussed how we all have similarities and differences. These differences help us to be unique. We all decorated a box with all of our favourite things. We talked about how we should celebrate our differences and ensure everybody is included.

Rocksteady Session 1
Wow! The children all had a brilliant time today with Jess from Rocksteady! They started to learn how to play their chosen instrument. We had some wonderful singers, drummers, keyboardists and guitarists. We can’t wait to see them grow into rockstars!
Craft Club: Emotion Plates
Today at the Little Craft Club the children made emotion plates. They discussed all of the different emotions and the children chose 4 to put on their plates. They have a peg to attach to the emotion that they’re feeling at any time. Super crafting!
KS2 Football Training
KS2 had another exciting football training session following their impressive win in the Kids Cup heat. The energy and enthusiasm from their recent victory carried over, as the children worked exceptionally well as a team, showing great cooperation and communication on the field. Their teamwork was evident in their passing, positioning, and overall gameplay, with everyone contributing to the practice matches. The session not only helped to sharpen their football skills but also reinforced the importance of collaboration and supporting one another both on and off the pitch. The team's hard work and dedication are clearly paying off!
KS1- Book Explorers
This week in Book Explorers, we read a lovely book all about friendship called ‘The Best Gift of All.’ This story is set in the Autumn and features lots of Autumn animals. We learnt about how all of these animals were amazing friends to the rabbit when she wasn’t feeling very well. We then made some wonderful Autumn wreaths to take home.
After-School Foodie Friends Club- Making flapjacks
The Foodie Club had a blast making flapjacks today! They measured the ingredients using weighing scales mixed them thoroughly, and created delicious treats.
DPSSA Girls Football League
The girls got off to an absolute flying start in the league tonight. 3 games and 3 wins. It was great to see them all play with a smile on their face and watch the more experienced players guiding those who are new to the game through it. Well done girls!
Cre8ability Session 4
This week we continued with our learning on emotional regulation. We focussed on how music can affect our emotions. We listened to lots of music and discussed how we felt after it. Music works the left and right side of the brain so it is really therapeutic. We then explored and had the opportunity to play some African drums. Carol taught us how to play the drums. We learnt bass, tone and slap and how to do a rumble on the drum. The children all created their own rhythm and we did a call and response. We then drummed along to ‘we will rock you’. We finished our session with some mindfulness colouring.
After School Craft Club
The children had great fun today creating their space themed crafts. A huge thank you to Becky from Fred and Pearl for providing this opportunity to our children.
