• Good to be Me

  Thu 30 Jun 2022 Inspired

  This week we have spent time thinking about how special each of us are. Knowing what makes each of us unique and special is so important. On Thursday of this week we wanted to focus on those people in our lives that have made a significant impact on us. From singers to athletes, doctors and nurses through to family members. Each of us makes a contribution to our wonderful world. Thank you to everyone for making today so special.

  Wed 29 Jun 2022 Bookworm

  What a great day today as we welcomed the wonderful Tom Percival. It was great for us to be able to get together to meet a real author and illustrator. Tom shared with us his experiences. Tom also entertained us with his marvellous stories back in time and delighted us all with his great humour. Thank you for visiting us and inspiring us!

  

• Summer Reading Challenge

  Tue 28 Jun 2022 Bookwork

  Today we welcomed former pupil Charlotte and Sheila from the Library Service to talk to us about The Summer Reading Challenge. 
  Every time a book is read, stickers are collected which builds up to completing a wonderful poster challenge and a chance to earn a certificate and medal upon completion. Reading is fun, especially through the Summer Holidays.

• Fenton Manor

  Tue 14 Jun 2022 Mrs S Palmer

  Our team of 4 girls performed brilliantly in their individual, acro and vault routines to give us 14th place out of 18 teams.  This is a national competition that has teams coming from all over the country so it is a huge achievement for our novice gymnasts, 3 of whom have never competed before at all.
