5H Clay!

5H have had a wonderful morning getting incredibly messy making William Morris style tiles with clay. They had a great time and worked so hard, especially at the mammoth clean up task afterwards! Well done team xxx

(Disclaimer: an hour after these photos were taken, tables, arms, faces and and clothes did not look this clean!)

Lights Camel Action

We are very excited for you to come and see our Christmas production this year! The children are working exceptionally hard and you’ll be able to see how much fun we have had putting it together.

Mrs Sisson, Mrs Potter and myself will be making decisions on any costumes that children need to wear for the production after school.

We will talk these through with the children tomorrow and send them home with a slip. Please use things that you have got around your house to create a costume.

Any children who are hosts in the production already know they are required to wear all black and one item in the colour that they have been given.

Thank you for your continued support!
