Y6 Pyjama Party

The Year 6's enjoyed an afternoon of popcorn and a film. After their endeavours this week, they relaxed wearing pyjamas and cuddling teddy bears. As you can see, I am not sure how quiet the impromptu cinema was but I can assure you a good time was had by all!

Primary Science Quality Mark - Gold Award

Earlier this week, we were informed that we had been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark -Gold Award. This prestigious accolade is only given to schools whose Science is considered excellent. It is testament to the hard work of Mrs Fogarty, not only in preparing the paperwork for the award, but the lessons she teaches your pupils every week. I am extremely proud that we have achieved this as there are not many schools in the country that are awarded the gold standard. Congratulations to Mrs Fogarty and our school!

Mummification in Year 3

As part of their topic, the pupils in Year 3 have been learning about mummification by actually participating in the process. You can see from the pictures that many of the mummies were happy about being wrapped and luckily we had no mummies roaming the corridors with arms outstretched!
