Money Wise Challenge

​A small group of children from years 5 and 6 were invited to take part in the Money Wise challenge at ExCel London.  They got to take part in a digital game with 700 other children, putting their knowledge of maths to the test and making important decisions about spending and saving money.

Art Exhibition

We had our wonderful art exhibition based on the theme ‘Exploring our emotions and feelings’! It was a huge success! The children created a range of stunning artwork where they were inspired by a range of fabulous books based around the theme and produced by a diverse range of authors and illustrators.

The judges faced a tough decision, as every participant showcased exceptional creativity and talent. Congratulations to the deserving winners and runners-up from each year group, who wowed us with their imaginative role-play!

Year 5 Level 2 Bikeability – Pedaling Confidence, Inspiring Adventures!

Our year 5 children participated in Level 2 Bikeability at school, focusing on preparing them for short journeys such as cycling to school. The training, conducted in small groups on quiet, local streets, provided a real cycling experience. Beyond the basic skills acquired, Bikeability serves as a gateway to various exciting cycling adventures. If your child is keen on exploring more, they may consider joining a local cycling club for activities like BMXing, mountain biking, or racing, and the Bikeability instructor can offer guidance on suitable groups for junior members and beginners. To reinforce the training, consider practicing as a family or allowing your child to cycle independently to school or local shops, further enhancing their cycling proficiency. Family training sessions are also available through Cycle Confident.

The participants showcased an abundance of talent, skill, variety, and laughter, making it a fantastic way to conclude the term. Not to be outdone, the teachers also delivered an impressive show.
