• New Website

  Tue 05 Sep 2017
  Over the summer our website has been updated to make it more smartphone friendly. It also contains more features including up to date house point scores, attendance percentage for each class and CEOP. 

  CEOP is a facility that parents and pupils can access to report issues around online and internet concerns. 

  New class pages will be up and ready over the next couple of weeks. Previous years pages have been archived so you can still visit past memories. 

  We will continue to upload class, whole school letters and newsletters on the website. 

  All updated policies are available to read under key information along with recent results for end of key stage 2 SATs. 

  If you haven't already, check out our website (each visit is added to our counter)

• New School Year

  Tue 05 Sep 2017 Mrs V Harrison
  A very warm welcome back to all our pupils and families of the school. Our new Hedgehogs class join us this week along with Eva in Robins, Rufus in Squirrels & William in Kingfishers. I know all our children will support and guide our new members around school. 

  On behalf of the staff and myself I would like to thank our families for your generosity and kind words at the end of term. We are extremely lucky to have so many supportive families who continue to work with us in making our school so special.  

  We now focus on the start of a new school year which is exciting and an opportunity for all our pupils to recognise their true potential and continue to be successful. 

  It's been a busy summer with staff in over the summer making lots of improvements in the school and preparing an exciting year ahead. 

  We welcome Mrs Cartwright to Hedgehogs and Miss Childs to Robins. We are also joined by Mrs Jefferson (trainee teacher) this term who will support our Key Stage 2 team. Along with our new additions we will have more students joining us to support our pupils this year. More details to follow in our October issue. 

  During the summer holidays two members of staff were married. Mr Price has become Mr Price after his wedding to Joelle and our lunchtime supervisor Miss Jordan celebrated her vintage wedding in Wolverley and is now Mrs Barranca. We all wish both Mr & Mrs Price and Mr & Mrs Barranca all our love and best wishes for the future. 

  As Mrs Harrison nears her due date she returns to support our new staff and pupils moving into key stage 1. We will keep you 'in the loop' with any news on baby Harrison no2.

• Frank Chapman Centre - Day 2

  Fri 12 May 2017

  Day 2: "Well we woke to the sun shining again. With many of us beating Mr McDonnell to the shower block to get ready (Freddie would like his mum to know he has washed his hair 3 times already!)

   

  Breakfast arrived and we gathered together to go through the day ahead. With suntan lotion covering all the bits that matter we divided into three groups for our first activity.

   

  Miss Bidnell, Mr McDonnell and Mrs Brown with a group each took part in either mountain biking, archery or high ropes.

  Mr McDonnell claims that he climbed the highest - between you and I it was Jack Hudson who got him there.

   

  The Frank Chapman Centre (or as we like to call it the FCC) is magically. Some of us found riding a bike a bit scary before we came now we can ride better than Mr McDonnell. Some of us found heights scary but now we can climb better than Mr McDonnell. Some of us thought archery was difficult but now we aim better than... you get the picture. 

   

  The new queen of archery is Miss Bidnell - who even beat the instructors. Mr McDonnell is very nervous as he's not doing so well so far. The pressure is on! 

   

  Mrs Stiles and Mrs Reeves-Walters arrived after school and just in time for tea. The chocolate cake and warm chocolate sauce was amazing. 

   

  We then had a choice before we headed into the woods for a walk do we practice for the talent show, take part in a sports game or play with the games in camp?

   

  Our walk took us to the magic tree where you can make a wish. All wishes are secret but let's see if they come true! 

   

  The talent show was such a treat as we drank our hot chocolate under the clear sky (just before the rain clouds arrived). Alice and Ruby performed a routine, Gracie sang, Lottie and Freddie danced, Ossie D and Dan H performed a comedy sketch and Lily, Lacey and Carys sang. 

   

  Then it was time for bed... and for the rain to start. 

   

  Last day tomorrow. Miss Bidnell has said once we've had breakfast we will take part in our last activity before lunch, pack then we will head home. We should arrive back at The Memorial Hall car park for 2pm. Some of us will go straight home some of us will help Mr McDonnell carry his luggage back over to school. Is it normal to use so much hair product and fake tan?

   

  Anyway, missing you all - see you soon"
