Deputy Headteacher's Update – Friday 13th May 2022

Welcome to this week’s update!

Our Year 6 pupils have been fantastic this week while completing their KS2 SATs. They have all shown outstanding focus and determination across the week. They have done themselves and the school proud! I know that they also enjoyed the SATs breakfast that was attended by many of our Year 6s and today there was a special musical acoustic session led by Mr Spiers, while the children enjoyed their bacon rolls!

We have had some new feathery joiners to our school this week in our Foundation Village. Nugget and Snowball, two chicks, have joined Reception and the children have loved looking after them. We have more to come too, as in the Nursery there are many more eggs incubating and waiting to hatch!  

Year 4 had their last swimming sessions today and the progress and confidence of the children in the water has really grown! I know that our Year 5 children are looking forward to their session starting next week!

Well done to all of this week's certificate winners from today’s celebration assembly. Our full list of this week's 'Stars of the Week' can be found on the weekly bulletin. There has been lots of amazing learning this week and therefore, unsurprisingly, there are brilliant reasons why the children have received the ‘Star of the Week Award!’ Well done to Year 3 Ashe Class and Year 5 Pankhurst Class, who are continuing to lead the way in Attendance Challenge; however, other classes are starting to catch up! Finally, congratulations to Sienna in Year 2, who had the lucky number in the 100% Attendance Raffle.

Please take time to look at our weekly bulletin and pictures from across the week below.

Have a fantastic weekend and let us hope the sun keeps shining.

Mr Josh Paramor

Deputy Headteacher
