Number Bots and Times Table Rock Stars Day was a fantastic success! Pupils came to school full of enthusiasm, dressed as number bots and rock stars, showing great determination as they took on their number and times table challenges. Special mentions to times table finalists Jimmy (Y6), Eashwar (Y5), Mia (Y4) and Lourenco (Y3). Congratulations to Eashwar - our overall champion! Thank you to Mr. Town and Mrs. Ledwell for organising a fun-filled day.

The children in gardening club have been enjoying preparing the soil, potting up seeds and nurturing their young plants before planting in our outside area. This week they were excited to pick lettuce leaves to taste before choosing a sweet-pea flower to take home. We hope that, by picking the flowers, more flowers will be encouraged to grow.
Year 2 had a fantastic trip to The Discovery Centre! We took part in lots of different activities - pond dipping, catching bugs in a butterfly net, seesaw, finding bugs in the trees and Lunch! The rangers were fantastic and we found lots of different animals.
