Try a school dinner
Over this term, we’re offering the chance for you to have a school dinner with your child(ren).
This is open to all children: those who currently have a school dinner and those who’d like to try them.
The dates for these sessions are:
- Years 5 and 6: Friday 01 March, 12.20pm
- Years 1 and 2:Friday 08 March, 12 noon
- Reception: Friday 15 March, 12 noon
- Years 3 and 4: Friday 22 March, 12.20pm
The cost is £2.65 for an adult meal and £1.90 for children in Reception to Year 4 and £1.95 for children in Years 5 and 6. There is obviously no extra charge if they already have a school dinner.
If you would like to sample a school dinner please ask at the office to secure your place as they will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
New payment option for Key Stage 2 fruit and veg tuck shop
From next half term, you’ll be able to pay in advance for your child to have a portion of fruit each week from the tuck shop for the rest of this school year.
If your child prefers to bring their money on the day (20p per item), that’s fine. We shall still continue to operate this system.
To pay in advance please bring £3.60 for one portion or £7.20 for two portions to the office. This will start from 26 February until 16 July.
Thank you for your support for our healthy tuck shop.
The Year Six poets
Today, Year Six worked together to write a fantastic class poem about visiting a theme park and going on the rides. Here it is.
There’s no coming back… it’s time to go!
Standing in the queue…waiting…watching…wondering.
Will I survive The Ultimate?
Standing in the queue…terrified…trembling…traumatised.
Adrenaline pumping,
Heart thumping,
Sweating palms,
“Just keep calm!”
There’s no coming back… it’s time to go!
Climbing slowly like a multi-coloured snail.
With a creak and a bang,
A rattle and a clang.
The snail-ride slithered up the incline,
Inch by tiny inch.
Getting closer to the clouds,
Getting closer to the drop.
There’s no coming back… it’s time to
go!
We have lift off.
Then…
Hurtling, dropping,
Swishing swoshing.
Twisting, twirling,
Tummy, swirling.
Up and down and all around,
Plunging head first to the ground.
Yelling, screaming,
Awful feeling.
Screeching, squealing,
I think I’m dreaming.
Up and down and all around,
Plunging head first to the ground.
At the end of the ride…dizzy…delirious…dreadful.
I hardly survived The Ultimate!
At the end of the ride…woozy…weary…wobbly.
Sky spinning,
Tummy groaning.
Feeling ill,
Head is moaning.
I’m not coming back… it’s time to go.
(Thank goodness)
Marvellous marble runs
Year Six were challenged to build a structure that used triangles to make strong shapes.
They attempted to build marble runs that were strong, secure and safe.
They did a great job.
Yoga Bugs
Year Six were treated to a session from Yoga Bugs today and were taken on a ‘yoga story’ about our topic on theme parks.
I don’t think they realised how energetic yoga or story telling could be!
Space yoga adventure
Baby dinosaurs!
Our dinosaur eggs have hatched! Now… how do we look after baby dinosaurs?

Punctuating sentences with the iPads
This afternoon, we’ve been correcting sentences which had missing punctuation using the Smart Notebook app. The children then had to email their completed sentences to me to check.
