Dear parents/carers,

We’re at the end of a very short but very busy half term! We’ve been to lots of different sports competitions, the Year 6s have completed their SATs, our pupil councils have been busy working on various projects, and now we are starting to look ahead to next academic year.  The classing structure will be shared with you after the half term break.

This week, we enjoyed a visit from ‘Pudding and Pie’ who did a live cookery assembly on Wednesday.  They will be running a lunchtime cookery club after half term which will teach the children about healthy eating and nutrition as well as giving them an opportunity to perfect their cooking skills!

A quick reminder of upcoming dates next half term:

  • Thursday 5th June: Tempest photography for individual/sibling and class photographs

Cookery Club

Dear Parents,
Your child is invited to attend a lunchtime cookery club.
Each session’s primary focus is on fun, play and getting messy. They will learn about food safety and hygiene whilst creating from recipes. Each session consists of fun food related games, creating their own dish, tasting sessions and circle/socialisation time. Each session is highly interactive and lasts for 30 minutes to keep their attention going. They will have plenty of time to eat their lunch and have a play.
They will explore new tastes and learn the basics regarding the role of nutrition in the body.
Regardless of whether your child is a little fusspot or a budding chef this class does wonders for all! It works on their number skills, counting out amounts as well as builds confidence in creating their own creations from scratch (which they will bring home to show you!) They learn about the wonders of food and nutrition as well as learning to share with others.
The club is every Thursday lunchtime and costs £7.50 each week (26/6 for Sport day not included)
If you are interested in your child in attending the course please contact using the link below:

There are limited spaces as this is available for 12 children only so please book ASAP to avoid disappointment!
Kind Regards

Dear parents/carers,

What a lovely, peaceful week we have enjoyed at school.  Our Year 6 pupils have been absolute superstars completing their SATs in the warm weather and I know Mr Harris is very proud of every one of them.  They showed wonderfully mature and positive attitudes and shown how ready for secondary school they are! The rest of the school showed wonderful respect and kindness being quiet when moving around the school too.  Well done everyone!

There are a few dates for your diaries before we break up for the summer:

  • Friday 6th June: Year 6 visit to Crucial Crew (Letter to follow)
  • Wednesday 18th – Friday 20th June: Y4 Residential trip to Liverpool
  • Thursday 26th June: Sports day 9.15am – KS2 1pm – KS1
  • Monday 30th June: Year 5 Music Celebration evening at Theatre Severn
  • Tuesday 8th July: Whole School transition morning
  • Friday 11th July: End of term Celebration Assembly
  • Friday 18th July: Year 6 Leavers Assembly

Please ensure your child brings a water bottle to school.  We have an increasing number of children coming to school without one and we have a limited supply of cups.

We are currently in the process of organising our class structure for next year.  Parents/carers will be informed as soon as this is finalised.

Have a lovely weekend,

Mrs Mavin

Dear parents/carers,

Well despite it being a short week, we still managed to cram a lot in! We have had trips out, VE day celebrations in school, pupil council activities and more, and the rest of the term doesn’t look much quieter!

It has been a particularly busy week for our Year 6 pupils who have been preparing for the End of Key Stage 2 Assessments (SATs) next week.  A quick reminder that the Year 6s are welcome to join breakfast club from 8.15am from Monday – Thursday next week free of charge.  I am sure you will join us in wishing them the very best of luck for next week.

Thank you to those of you who joined us for the VE day celebrations, it was really lovely to see so many of you there and I hope you enjoyed the children’s decorations.

Have a lovely weekend everyone,

Mrs Mavin
