Last night, our football team had their second game again St Jude’s school! The heavy pitch didn’t help the children trying to play, but they battled ever so well! Despite going on to lose the match, the children showed progress and scored their first goal of the season, and there could have easily been a few more! Well done children!
Here are our children that have been nominated for praise this week.
On the 11th day, of the 11th month on the 11th hour we will remember them. We gathered to observe the national silence following a liturgy prepared by pupils from Y4, Y5 & Y6. Pupils across school have laid their prayers at our alter as we pray for the souls of the departed.
Year 5 planned and led a well attended class liturgy this morning where they linked their history learning about World War II with Remembrance Day. Thank you to those able to join us for this class liturgy.
Today we went to the KS2 All Aboard Festival together with other schools. The sports we did were tennis, a gym session, dodgeball, croquet, squash and archery. In tennis we practiced different tennis skills and learned what the parts of the racket were called and some famous tennis players names like Roger Federer.
When we had the gym session, we did races with exercises which was very tiring. Next, we did dodgeball with a twist because we hit rackets with balls. After that we tried croquet which was new to all of us but we enjoyed it. Then we played squash where we hit the balls against the wall with the rackets and tried balancing the ball whilst walking around the court. Finally, it was archery and we learned how to hold the bow and arrow and how to shoot properly. All the schools then had a photo taken together. IT WAS A GREAT DAY .

Our children had their first football game of the year against Castlecroft tonight! The team consisted of children from across Key Stage 2 as they had an opportunity to represent their school. The boys unfortunately lost on the evening, but battled so well and really did themselves proud!
Our new football kit, which was designed by our own Year 5 child Leroy, finally arrived today and was used for the first time.
We have also included the badge for the Oliver King Foundation in recognition for the money raised to get a defibrillator in school!
Reception ended their week of learning about Diwali by making Sparklers during Forest Friday. We talked about keeping safe during the weekend, when we may experience more firework fun!
Here are our children that have been nominated for praise this week.
