Rugby Festival

Last Friday, a group of our Year 6 children attended a rugby festival at DK Rugby Club and enjoyed a fantastic afternoon of sport, teamwork and fun.

The festival was a non-competitive event, giving children the opportunity to develop their rugby skills in a relaxed and supportive environment. Throughout the afternoon, the pupils took part in a variety of activities and matches, demonstrating excellent enthusiasm, determination and sportsmanship.

The children thoroughly enjoyed the experience and came away having learnt some valuable new tips and techniques from the coaches and other participants. It was wonderful to see their confidence grow as they put these new skills into practice.

We are incredibly proud of the way all of the children represented our school. Their positive attitudes, teamwork and behaviour were exemplary throughout the event.

Well done to everyone who took part! 🏉👏

A heartfelt thank you for the thoughtful cards, gifts, and kind messages we have received. Your generosity and appreciation mean so much to us and are truly valued.

RE Learning This Week – Years 1 and 2.

This week in RE, the children explored how believing in God can influence the way people treat others and care for the world around them.

The children worked in table groups to sort different behaviours, deciding whether they followed The Golden Rule – treat others as you would like to be treated – or not. This prompted thoughtful discussions about kindness, respect and making positive choices.

We were impressed by the children’s ideas and their ability to explain their thinking.

Year 1 and Year 2 Celebrate National Writing Day 2026.

Our KS1 children recently took part in the wonderful celebration of National Writing Day 2026, immersing themselves in a day full of creativity, imagination, and storytelling.

The children produced their own independent pieces of creative writing. We were incredibly impressed by the enthusiasm and imagination on display.

The children worked diligently to apply their phonics, spelling, punctuation, and storytelling skills, and many showed great pride in their work.

We are very proud of all our young writers. National Writing Day was a fantastic opportunity to nurture a love of writing, and we hope it has inspired many budding authors for the future!

Well done, Year 1 and Year 2! ✍️✨

🐧 Amazing Authors! Year 1 & 2 Non-Fiction Penguin Booklets.

The children in Year 1 and 2 became fantastic young authors as they created their very own non-fiction booklets all about penguins!

The children learned how to write in a clear and informative style, just like real non-fiction writers. They worked incredibly hard to:

Research facts about penguins, including where they live, what they eat, and what they look like.

Write sentences using capital letters, full stops, and spaces to present their ideas clearly.

Organise their writing into sections, using headings to share information.

Add diagrams and illustrations to make their booklets engaging and informative.

It was wonderful to see the children building their confidence in writing while sharing their knowledge in such creative ways!

We are incredibly proud of their effort, creativity, and enthusiasm.

🌟 Well done, Year 1 and 2! 🌟

Ascension Day Celebrations – Year 1 and Year 2

Today, our Year 1 and Year 2 children enjoyed a very special day as they came together to celebrate Ascension Day.

The morning began with a visit to church, where the children took part in a meaningful and reflective service. Our worship leaders did a wonderful job leading the assembly, helping the children to understand the importance of Ascension Day and guiding them in prayer, song, and worship.

In the afternoon, the celebrations continued back at school with a fantastic talent showcase. The children had the opportunity to share their unique skills and interests with their peers, and it was truly inspiring to see the confidence and enthusiasm on display.

We are incredibly proud of all the children for their participation, courage, and support for one another. It was a joyful day filled with faith, creativity, and celebration.
