School Garden

On Friday afternoons groups of children have been weeding, watering, sowing seeds, and finding lots of exciting bugs! They have harvested tomatoes, beans, carrots, potatoes, and other vegetables, and tidying up for the winter. The soil is very sandy and needs lots of muck and compost to help grow better vegetables next year.

Art Club

Children from years 1 to 4 produced an aquarium each and a Hallowe'en picture over 6 weeks of Art Club in the first half of term. They enjoyed painting the inside and outside of the aquaria and making fish, mermaids, seaweed, waves and other objects to populate them.

Class 2 go to Norwich Castle

Class 2 had a very successful trip to Norwich Castle in May. They spent the day learning about the history of the castle, Romans and Egyptians ready for their next class project. The children had the opportunity to visit the dungeons in the castle and soon realised it would not be a nice place to be.
"I liked the shop because there was lots of different things there and I bought four crystals to share with my family".
"I liked the room we went in at the end. It reminded me of the hall in the Harry Potter films. It had secret rooms at the top when you went up the stairs to the large balcony, one of the best days ever".
These were a couple of the comments from Henry and Oliver.

Decorating of Class 3

Class 3 has been beautifully decorated over the past few weeks and the children are thrilled to bits with the new colours.
