Last week we celebrated #WorldThinkingDay, a day when members of the Girl Guide & Scout movements think of each other and give thanks for their international friendships. Our children who are part of Rainbows, Beavers, Brownies, Guides and Cubs came dressed in their uniforms for the day. A big thank you to the leaders of 1st Sherston Guides & Scouts who came into school to take a special assembly about World Thinking Day and well done to all the children who took part, representing their groups.

The children have experienced a variety of science, technology, engineering and maths related challenges and activities during our special themed week – from designing kites and air purifiers, to building bridges, making kazoos and much more! Thank you to the Friends of Sherston School for funding the in-class activity resources, and to James Dyson Foundation and Airbus for providing interactive sessions and materials to help inspire the next generation of engineers! Wishing everyone a happy half term break.

We were delighted to be joined by Airbus today as part of our #STEMWEEK. Our YR-4 children enjoyed a fascinating session all about the world of Airbus, giving them an insight into how what they do at school, from art and computing, to maths and science, translates into real world jobs. Thank you for inspiring the next generation of engineers!

We had a super afternoon in the sunshine at the Westonbirt Cross Country Event yesterday. Well done to all our children who took part - for their great enthusiasm, competitive spirit and support for each other. Thank you to our running club coaches for getting them all warmed up and raring to go, and to our parents for cheering them on!

Well done to Chestnut Class for their fantastic assembly this morning. Through the story of 'The Raindrop' the children took us on a journey through the water cycle and promoted their important message of protecting our planet and water sources.

Along with super singing and acting performances the children also played an integral part in writing the script. Thank you to all our parents for joining this special show - we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

Huge thanks to the James Dyson Foundation for kicking off our #STEMWEEK and helping inspire the next generation of engineers! Our Y5/6 pupils enjoyed a fascinating workshop on ‘Air Pollution’ delivered by Dyson engineers. It was a great opportunity for the children to gain insights into what engineering is like and how it can tackle the global problem of air pollution. Using excess Dyson parts, cardboard and tape, the children then rose to the challenge of designing and building their own solutions to air pollution. #InspiringTheNextGeneration #EngineeringEducation #STEM
