Shrove Tuesday - Pancake Day

On Tuesday, March 4th, our school will be celebrating Pancake Day! 

We'll be serving up warm, tasty pancakes with a yummy toffee sauce to all our students. Whether your child brings a packed lunch or enjoys a school meal, every child will get a chance to enjoy this special treat.

Pancake Day is a day many people around the world enjoy, often marking the start of spring and the chance to use up ingredients before the season changes. It's a great opportunity to enjoy a fun and tasty meal together.

We're looking forward to seeing lots of happy faces enjoying this tasty treat.

Well done to all pupils for their beautiful work and thoughtful contributions.

Year 5 'Conflict' Workshop Success

We were delighted to host a conflict resolution workshop for our Year 5 pupils earlier this week. 

The session focused on developing essential skills in meaningful communication and effective conflict resolution. It is our aim to equip our pupils with the tools necessary to navigate interpersonal challenges constructively, fostering a positive and harmonious learning environment. 

Well done to all those involved and we look forward to continuing developing these essential skills within the classroom.

Earlier this week, a selection of our pupils across Key Stage 2 participated in a friendly netball match against Cheam Park Farm Primary. Throughout the game, we were delighted to observe the pupils demonstrating excellent teamwork and skill, resulting in some impressive passing plays and successful scoring. 

We commend all involved for their sportsmanship and dedication. 

Intraclass Sports Tournaments across KS2

This week, Year 5 engaged in an invigorating 'Intraclass' end ball tournament, providing all pupils with the opportunity to participate in competitive sport. 

The enthusiasm and sportsmanship displayed were commendable, and we extend our congratulations to Ruby for her victorious performance, acknowledging the excellent effort of all participating pupils.
