Well done to the children of class one, who shared their learning with us, in their assembly, this morning, and showed us their amazing artwork.

Mini Olympics

Class 3 and the young ambassadors managed to keep their cool at the 10th Anniversary of the Mini Olympics at the Meres Stadium today. The celebrations started with the arrival of sky divers to squeals of glee from the children. They had the opportunity to run relay races, practise netball shooting, perfect their hockey skills, learn a dance with the help of the Royal Opera House and join in with some team building games.

Original storytelling from Dudley House School in Grantham
These picture books were created by children aged four to nine years at Dudley House School in Grantham and each of them is original and beautifully illustrated. Their ideas ranged from ghosts and clocks to tigers in space and jungle fairs. They were all well told stories and we’re delighted to share some of their internal pages here. Well done to all these young authors and illustrators!
