🏃♂️💪 "Year 4 Willow took their PSHE learning outdoors this week and had lots of fun doing so! Inspired by Steve Frew and Great Athlete Day, the children explored the effects exercise can have on the human body. What a fantastic way to combine physical activity with learning about the importance of keeping our bodies healthy!" ~ Mr Cullen

💭💛 "The children have been exploring the things that are important and valuable to them! They shared their ideas before sorting them into things that money can buy, such as toys and sweets, and things that money cannot buy, such as love, friendship and happiness. What a lovely opportunity to reflect on what truly matters in life!" ~ Miss Rose

🤸♂️🌟 "Year 5 had a fantastic time taking part in fitness circuits led by former Commonwealth Games gymnast Steve Frew! The children showed great determination and enthusiasm as they challenged themselves throughout the session. Steve also shared an inspiring talk about perseverance, encouraging the children to keep trying, work hard and never give up on their goals. We are incredibly proud of the effort and enthusiasm shown by Year 5 throughout this memorable day. Thank you, Steve, for inspiring us all!" ~ Ms Edwards-Tyndale

🍕👩🍳 "Reception Sycamore had a fantastic time making their very own pizzas last week! The children learnt how to measure ingredients, including flour, yoghurt and cheese, before preparing their pizzas and cooking them in the oven. What a brilliant hands-on activity to develop their measuring skills and confidence in the kitchen. The best part was getting to taste their delicious creations!" ~ Miss Rani

🤺🌟 "Our Year 3 Chestnut children have been doing a fantastic job in their fencing lessons! They have shown wonderful enthusiasm and determination as they develop their footwork, coordination, balance and fencing techniques. It has been brilliant to see their confidence grow while also learning the importance of concentration, listening carefully, following instructions and showing respect for their opponents. Most importantly, the children have been having lots of fun, challenging themselves and supporting one another. We are incredibly proud of the effort and positive attitude they bring to every lesson. Well done, Chestnut Class!" ~ Mr Fagan-Cooper

🧸📚 "As part of our History topic, ‘What was childhood like for our grandparents?’, we welcomed a very special visitor, Ms Jenny, who spoke to us about what school was like when she was a little girl! She also brought along some of her toys from the past for us to explore. It was a fantastic opportunity to hear first-hand about childhood in the past and compare it with our lives today!" ~ Miss Zeenat
