  • Hedgehogs Egyptian Day

    Fri 17 Nov 2023 Mrs Chinnery

    On Thursday, as part of their topic on Ancient Egypt,  Hedgehogs class had their very own Egyptian Day. They came to school in amazing costumes and spent the day coming up with theories about how the pyramids were built (after anaylising some historical pictures). They then were challenged to build pyramids with spaghetti for which the children needed all of their ACE particles, particularly perseverance. The Hedgehogs class had already learned about the mummification process through guided reading so they then mummified oranges using salt and sodium bicarbonate to turn their skins nice and leathery just like a mummy! In the afternoon, they created death masks using Tutunkahmen as their inspiration. What a wonderful day of ACE learning and fun!

  • Children in Need 2023

    Fri 17 Nov 2023 Mrs Chinnery

    Today we dressed up in spotty and bright clothes in support of Children in Need Be SPOTacular day. 

    Once again, our amazing School Council organised a range of Pudsey/spotty themed games and activities for breaktime. These were very much enjoyed by all the children. Our very kind cook also baked us all a Pudsey shortbread cookie as well as some sponge iced with hundreds and thousands. Thank you to all those who sent in donations for the day, we raised an incredible £156.60!
