Our Y4 pupils had a fantastic time at their PGL residential in October. They enjoyed lots of outdoor adventures from abseiling, aeroball and orienteering to zip wiring and campfire activities. Highlights included the climbing wall, where all the children challenged themselves and loved it, and archery, where a few budding Robin Hoods were spotted! 

We've been celebrating Friendship Week over the last week of term. The children have been playing lots of team-building games and had circle time activities on the themes of ‘resolving conflict’, ‘what makes a good friend’ and ‘sharing acts of kindness’. Different year groups have come together to share books, play board games and outdoor games. And this afternoon we've had a whole school movie and each class has come dressed in a ‘class colour’ to celebrate coming together as team.

As part of their topic on ‘Raging Romans!’ our Y3, 4 and 5 pupils enjoyed a day out to Chedworth Roman Villa this term with a guided tour of the villa and mosaic making workshop.

It’s been lovely welcoming back all our children and families, along with our new reception class and pupils across the year groups who joined us this term.
