Eco Club
This afternoon in Eco Club we created a Promise Tree. After listening to ‘George Saves the World by Lunchtime’, we thought about the ways we are already caring for our environment as well as promises we can make to take greater care of our wonderful world.
Well done ‘Eco Warriors’ – you had some superb ideas. We hope the rest of the school will add their thoughts and pledges to the Promise Tree too.
I am looking for to our next session! 
Thank you, Mrs Gentry
#RE – Jesus’s magnetic personality
This morning, in Religious Education, after exploring how magnets can attract things, the children drew a friend and listed characteristics and reasons why they were attracted to that person as a friend.
By reading different Bible passages we saw that people were attracted and drawn to Jesus – just like a magnet.
Over the next few weeks we will exploring different stories to find out more.
Anyone for Tennis?
Class 3 and 4 enjoyed their first tennis lesson this term … and the sun shone! They practiced their ball skills – seeing how they can move when they catch a ball. They recapped catching a ball with two hands, then one hand, then throwing from one hand to the other before progressing onto controlling their ball with the tennis racket. Walking around whilst balancing the ball on the racket proved tricky for some, whilst others were challenged by gently bouncing the ball on their racket.
Well done Class 3 and 4 – you all worked really hard and developed your skills!

Tag Rugby 30th March
This afternoon we enjoyed sunshine and showers whilst playing Tag Rugby matches up at Kesteven Rugby Club. As the afternoon wore on it was great to see them becoming more enthusiastic, active and working more successfully as a team. Well done everyone.
#tag rugbyWe had some slow moving Visitors
The children in Class 1 were fascinated by the Giant Snails that Mrs Jessop very kindly bought in for them to hold. The children from Class 3 and 4 also enjoyed the opportunity of seeing and handling them.
Easter Assembly 2023
This morning, in their Easter Service, the children thanked God for all the wonderful signs of Spring that they can see all around them, through songs and prayers. They reflected on what Easter means to them and shared aspects of the Easter story.
A moving and poignant service in which the children reminded and asked parents and friends to reflect on the real meaning of Easter.
