Week Ending 13th September 2013


Another term is well underway, and our children, from Pre-School to Year Five, are settled and enjoying School routine.

Our Year Five children look extremely smart in their black blazers, and stripey ties, and are setting a wonderful example to our younger pupils.

Transport is the topic for this term, and already boards have been designed, with high flying kites and "Squirrels" who have journeyed around the World during the summer!  Badgers have started making papier-mache hot air balloons, which they will eventually paint in bright colours and patterns.  Rabbits have been looking at maps, and plotting their holiday routes by car, boat, aeroplane and train.  Otters have produced some lovely art work, which will brighten up the corridors at their end of the school!


Many maintenance jobs have been completed over the past few weeks, enabling our Academy to look smart and well cared for.  There is new fencing around our new classrooms, and some external paintwork is nearly completed, ready for Hedgehogs to add their wonderful murals.  The allotment is full of fruit and vegetables, and our hens have returned from their summer holiday, and they continue to lay well.

"Choices" re-started on Thursday, with an even wider range of topics:
