• Teachers Doing Something Silly!

  Fri 30 Jan 2026

   

  In the last week of this half term a fundraising event being organised by our School Councillors. Their chosen charity is Cancer Research and they would love your support.

   

  The children have heard all about this during our worship time today.

  See the poster below to see which of our teachers have volunteered to do something silly. 

   

  To vote for the silliest challenge, tokens should be paid for on Arbor.

  £1 per token and you can buy as many tokens as you want.

   

  Payments should be made by 9.00am on Monday 9th February.

   

  The children will then vote and the chosen teachers will complete their challenge on the last day of half term.

   

  Thank you for your support,

  Mrs Wharton, Mr Crump and Miss Arnold

• Happy Christmas to all our families.

  Thu 18 Dec 2025

  Dear Families,

   

  As we come to the end of the term, we would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you so much for your continued support throughout this term.

   

  The Christmas festivities have been wonderful, with so many family members and friends joining us to watch the Christmas performances. The children have truly done us proud, and we are so pleased with the effort, enthusiasm and energy they put into everything they do.

  Rev Laura was full of praise for both our children and staff at this week’s Christmas service, which was lovely to hear. We were also delighted this term to receive such a positive SIAMS inspection report — a real testament to the hard work and commitment of our whole school community.

   

  Please join us in thanking all of our school staff for their dedication and hard work throughout the term.

  Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a peaceful, restful and happy holiday.

   

  Kindest regards, 

   

  Amanda Cope

  Headteacher

  

• Sparkle and Shine!

  Fri 12 Dec 2025

  We are so proud of all the children and have loved seeing them shine.

  It has been lovely to parents, carers and extended family for the Christmas performances held in school this week. 

  It's been a joy to see the children enjoying taking part in their productions.

  A huge well done to our Reception, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 and Year 5 children.

  You have all been incredible and made us feel very festive.

   

  We are looking forward to our final festive concert when our Year 6 pupils take part in their carol concert on Tuesday.

   

  We have been pleased to see the sun come out this afternoon while the children participated in the Rudolph Run for Kemp Hospice. Well done everyone. Thank you for your support with this fundraising.

   

  Please remember we finish for the Christmas Holidays on Thursday 18th December at 3.15pm.

• This half term so far

  Fri 14 Nov 2025

  This week started with Odd Socks Day as part of Anti-Bullying Week. Children came to school wearing odd socks to celebrate what makes us unique.

   

  We have marked Remembrance Day during our worship on Tuesday. We loved all the poppies that the children created and brought into school. Some of these are still on display in school. 

   

  Today we have had a spotty and Pudsey non-uniform day for Children in Need.

   

  Thank you all for your support with our recent fundraising for the Royal British Legion, Team4U shoeboxes and Children in Need.

   

  Rehearsals are well under way for our Christmas performances. We look foward to seeing you all in December for these. Your allocated tickets should be coming home this week.

   

  Just a reminder from the PTA to buy your tickets for movie night next week.
