Kingswood Badge Winners

More pupils were awarded their Kingswood badges this week. Once again, we give these to pupils who 'choose the right attitude' everyday. They come into school smiling and giving every effort to the work set in class. I am so proud of all of the pupils who have been awarded a badge and can't wait to shake the hand of the first pupil who is awarded 2 badges. There is no limit to the number of Kingswood badges someone can win before they leave our school.

Kelvedon St Mary's School Visit - Wednesday 9th March

We were visited by Kelvedon St Mary's Primary School today. Children from Years 3, 4 and 5 came over and took part in lessons and lunch with the pupils from our school. Last year, we held a similar visit and the children gained so much from learning with and from each other. We will be reciprocating the visit next week and heading to Kelvedon to see how their school runs and participate in lessons and activities.
