Today, the whole school has taken part in a wonderful, peaceful retreat led by One Life Music. Thank you to Dan and Emily for helping us in our journey of getting ready in this special season. Let His Glory Shine!

Last week, Year 5 had the exciting opportunity to go to the National Space Centre in Leicester. They explored the amazing Rocket Tower by climbing 244 flights of stairs and investigated the six space-themed galleries. They even watched a show called ‘Astronaut’ in the UK’s largest Planetarium.

We celebrated National Poetry Day with a host of activities. Parents joined us in our reading and writing poetry workshops, where we produced amazing poems on this year’s theme ‘Refuge’. It was great to see pupils working alongside their parents and other children in different year groups.

Pupils in Year 2 & 3 visited The Grand Theatre to meet an author – Benji Davies. They heard all about the process of writing and listened to him read his new books! Pupils were surprised with their own copy of his latest book!!

In the afternoon, pupils learnt a poem and performed it to other classes. They focused on their speech and language skills as well as their performance skills.

Year 5 enjoyed their first guitar lesson with Mr Moffet. They learnt how hold the instrument and how to play key notes. Well done Year 5!!!
