Colour Run Fun!
What a fantastic time we had at our Colour Run! The children absolutely loved taking part and there were smiles, laughter, and colourful powder everywhere.
As they ran around the course, the children were covered from head to toe in bright colours, making for a truly memorable and exciting experience. It was wonderful to see everyone having so much fun!
Of course, it was very messy, but that was all part of the fun! The children embraced every colourful moment and created lots of happy memories with their friends.
We hope you enjoy looking through the photos of our vibrant and joyful Colour Run adventure!




























































































































Sports Day and Celebration of Learning
What an amazing Sports Day we had, even in such hot weather! The children showed fantastic enthusiasm and determination as they took part in all the activities.
A huge thank you to all our families for your support and for joining us to make the day so special. It was wonderful to see so many of you cheering the children on and celebrating their achievements.
Following Sports Day, we loved welcoming you into the classroom for our Celebration of Learning. The children were incredibly proud to share their beautiful work and talk about everything they have been learning throughout the year. It was a lovely opportunity to celebrate all of their hard work, progress, and successes together.
Thank you once again for your continued support. We hope you enjoy looking through the photos from this fantastic day!





































Sunny Days in Class 1
We’ve been making the most of the glorious sunshine in Class 1! With all the hot weather recently, we decided to bring the seaside beach vibes to school.
The children had a fantastic time paddling in the water, splashing their friends, and enjoying lots of fun outdoor playing in the sunshine. There were plenty of smiles and laughter as everyone embraced the beach-themed activities and cooled off in the warm weather.
Days like these provide wonderful opportunities for children to explore, play, and create special memories with their classmates. It was lovely to see everyone having so much fun while staying cool and enjoying the outdoors.
We hope you enjoy looking through the photos of our sunny day…

Celebrating Our Learning
In crew this week, our Year 1 children have been busy preparing for their Student-Led Conferences by practising how to share their learning with confidence. They spent time showing their chosen pieces of work to their friends, explaining what they had learned and why they were particularly proud of each piece.







The children worked hard to speak clearly, listen carefully to one another and celebrate each other’s achievements. It was wonderful to see their growing confidence as they reflected on their progress and practised talking about their learning. We are so proud of the enthusiasm and pride they have shown, and we look forward to seeing them share their beautiful work with their families next week!
A Seaside Adventure to Remember!
Last week, our children enjoyed a fantastic fieldwork visit to Cleethorpes, and what a wonderful day we had!
From the moment we arrived, the children were a credit to our school. They behaved beautifully throughout the day, showing excellent manners, enthusiasm and curiosity as they explored the seaside environment.
We were very lucky with the weather too. The sun was shining and a lovely sea breeze helped to keep everyone comfortable as we spent time on the beach. Of course, no trip to the seaside would be complete without a special treat! The children were delighted to enjoy ice creams and ice lollies, which were the perfect way to cool down after a busy day of exploring and having fun. Please enjoy some of the photos below, which capture the fun, laughter and memorable moments from our day at the beach!












































































The train journey was definitely one of the highlights for many of the children. There was great excitement as we travelled along the coast together, and it was lovely to see the children sharing the experience with their friends. There were certainly a few tired eyes on the return journey home!


















We are so proud of how the children represented our school and would like to thank all the staff and volunteers who helped make the trip such a success.
