Year 6 - Easter Artwork

Today, our Year 6 class took a trip to the Rose Garden at Whitehall Park to admire the amazing artwork on display. It was fantastic to see contributions not only from Year 6, but from pupils across the whole school. The artwork, inspired by different crosses, showcased a wide range of creative ideas, patterns and meanings, making it a truly special and thoughtful exhibition. The setting of the gardens made the experience even more enjoyable and the children were incredibly proud to spot their own pieces and share the inspiration behind their work with friends. A big well done to all our pupils for their dedication and creativity.

Year 4 - Visit to the Rose Garden

At the start of Holy Week, the Year 4 class walked to the Rose Garden to create our Easter art gallery and then explore each class’s work. This year, each class took part in the A-Cross the World project. They chose a cross from a different part of the world and used it for inspiration to decorate their own crosses. After spending some time exploring the crosses in pairs, the Year 4 children took part in a quiz to locate specific crosses based on information from the background story or the technique used to create them. They had a great time exploring and choosing their favourite crosses.

Jade from Tesco's community champions visited Year 5 today to play a game of stand up bingo. Every child received a ticket and sat down with a bag of sweets when their number was called. The last person standing was Layla, who won an Easter egg. Thank you so much to the Tesco for coming today.

Year 6 - Stand Up Bingo

Today we had a special visit from Tesco, who led a fun game of “Stand Up Bingo”. Each child started standing with a raffle ticket and as their numbers were called, they sat down, until only one person remained standing. It was great fun for everyone involved and a big well done to Seb Taylor for being our class winner!

Year 5 - Bikeability

Braving freezing winds and bitter hail, Year 5 spent Wednesday developing their cycling skills with the assistance of the instructors from Bikeability. They worked towards their Level 1 certificate and also displayed their skills in listening and team work. I was so impressed by their resilience and commitment working in such challenging conditions.

The Anderton Centre - Paddle Boarding

So we woke up to completely different weather this morning! The sun was beaming and after we had a delicious full English breakfast we descended on the lake to take part in XL paddle boarding. The children paddled for miles, played games and even managed ‘ Body Part Bingo’. We had a few slip ups and a few of the children ended up in the water. What a great way to finish our residential to The Anderton Centre. Big thanks to Mrs Araujo, Mrs Gardner and Mrs Singleton for their support and also to the parents, carers and children .

Super proud of Grace and Isaac for their amazing performances in Les Miserables this evening at their opening night! It took so much courage to sing solos in front of a packed theatre audience and you both smashed it! Huge congratulations to the whole cast, you were sensational! It’s still Mrs Ham’s favourite musical and I think it’s now Mr Bloomfield’s!

Team Gardner - Problem Solving and Fashion Design

This afternoon Year 4 arrived at The Anderton Centre for our residential. The weather unfortunately isn’t on our side today so we had to change our activities to ensure we are kept safe.  In our groups we have completed problem solving activities and a fashion design activity where the children had to create outfits from spare pieces of fabric. The children have had lots of fun and created masterpieces that they showed off on the catwalk.
