Whole School Worship - God’s Green Earth

As we approach the end of Lent, Mrs Ham led a special worship to celebrate all the efforts our school community has made to give back by looking after our local area and beyond. We couldn’t believe just how much we’ve all achieved in 2026 so far. Some key actions include: Reception class earning the Ruby Robin Award through building bug hotels, spotting birds and taking part in a wildlife quiz; our collective Big Winter Wander to raise money for the World Fund For Nature; our whole-school tree planting day on Jack’s Key; the WOW group planting two community orchards on school grounds; Mr Fairbanks building bird boxes and placing them around school; the Rota Kids collecting pre-loved teddies and coats for charity; the WOW group creating posters about the community poo bag dispenser located outside school, and putting them up all around the local area; and some of our children and parents choosing to go litter picking to help keep our streets clean. We have much more planned for the future, so keep a lookout for our next initiative. We ended our worship with prayers of thanks for God’s creations and singing one of our favourite Fischy Music songs: Make A Difference. Key Stage 2 stayed behind to hear the winners of the March TT Rockstars battle. A huge well done to the winning classes, Years 3 and 6, and to our class champions: Charlie, Charlie, Isabella and Isabelle.

Year 4 - Times Tables

Look at those proud faces! Our rockin’ Year 4s have had a fantastic start to their TT Rock Stars journey. They trialled some of the single player games and earned coins to spend on their rockstar avatars. We talked about the benefits of doing our times tables little and often, but I think it’s going to be more hardworking keeping some of the class off this app!

Year 4 - Times Tables

We are hot on times tables in Year 4 and the practice has started already. The children thoroughly enjoyed a game of Roll and Race this week. They had to roll the dice and complete a corresponding times table from the grid. They worked in teams to see if they could be the first group to complete the grid. It was a furious race to the finish, but the children worked brilliantly, supporting each other to work out the answers.
