The Rotary Club run a "Young Writer" Competition and the theme this year was "Wonderful Water" the theme could be interpreted as broadly as the Young Writer wished, and did not need to conform to the dictionary definition, they had the widest opportunity to share their creative talents in showing what this Theme means to them, their work could be handwritten, or typed story in prose or poem entitled 'Wonderful Water. Our writers were inspired by water streams and pollution. We had winners 1st, 2nd and 3rd and each child won a book token, well done to our winners and to everyone who entered the competition.
Five of our brilliant Year 4 pupils had a fantastic time representing our school at the "Wondermaths" tournament! They showcased their impressive mathematical problem-solving skills and teamwork throughout the event. Well donewe're so proud of you all!

Habemus papam – We have a Pope.
Today we celebrated the 80th anniversary of VE Day in school. The children were invited to dress up in 1940s/wartime inspired clothing or simply just red, white or blue. Alongside the dressing up, the children participated in a variety of activities, including arts, crafts, and history lessons, all designed to honour the significance of VE Day. A memorial service was held on the playground, followed by a picnic, with dancing and listening to music of that era. Everyone agreed that it was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon celebrating this event. We also found the entry in the old School Log Book, which showed the children were given two days holiday on May 8th & 9th in 1945. This was also marked with the following hand written entry "VE Day came as a Blessing and relief for us all and with a prayer of thanksgiving and gratitude to our noble and self-sacrificing defenders whom we honour with heartfelt thanks on every D Day since 1939".
