The story of 'The Two Houses', is based on the parable of the 'Wise and Foolish Builders', and was brought to life this afternoon by 'Open the Book'.  This parable teaches Christians that we are all builders, the house is our spiritual life and the salvation of our soul. Those that listen to and…

Today we we treated to a workshop run by The Dogs Trust. We learnt all about how to be a best friend to a dog - we all definitely learnt something new about dog behaviour and we all made a promise to be the best friend a dog can get!

Wow!  Buttercup looked FANTASTIC! We loved sharing our costumes and favourite books.  In the afternoon, we enjoyed creating our own versions of  'Dear Greenpeace' by Simon James, using Purple Mash.

We had a great time celebrating Red Nose Day.  Our class ambassadors, Percy and Zara, performed jokes in our assembly and as a result, inspired many of us to create our very own joke books!

Thank you to our Class Ambassadors, Rory and Lola, who helped take a lead role in organising this day!

This year's focus for Science Week was 'Time'. In Primrose Class, we made 4 boats in our groups out of different materials. We then watched how, over time, the boats began to absorb water, sink or remain floating. Before carrying out this investigation, the children discussed how to keep it a fair…

This year's focus for Science Week was 'Time'. In Buttercup Class, we made jelly to help us understand time.  The children investigated if adding fruit to jelly changed how long it took to set.  All but one of the groups made different flavour jelly with different fruits.  The group that didn't…

Well, as always, one of my favourite days of the year did NOT disappoint. To celebrate, we begun the day with a parade as a whole school, where each class went around the playground to give everybody any opportunity to see each other’s efforts.

With the theme of being eco-friendly and doing our…
