Our Celebrations for our Queen!

We have had a wonderful week celebrating the Queen's 90th birthday.

On Wednesday we had a service at church and received beautiful books from Rev. Chris and the church.

The books were presented by Shirley Tart (Deputy Lord Lieutenant) and Meriel Afia (Member of the Royal Household) and out thanks also go to them. Hopefully they will be books to be treasured forever.

Today we held our playground 'street' party and out Year 6 pupils served a wonderful afternoon tea in the village hall. Thank you to the WI and PTFA for your help and support in making this event a success. We had a great time!

And of course... we mustn't forget a visit from a very special lady...

Iron Age food

Last week Oak Class had a visit from Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre and they were able to learn all about Iron Age food. Some of it was really yummy whereas some was slightly more 'interesting'.

Willow Class Assembly

Congratulations to Willow Class who performed a wonderful class assembly yesterday all about giants! Their news reports were really informative and I'm sure there are going to be some roving reporters in the future!

Our school

Children in Lime Class (Y5/6) took photos of our school and local area to show our friends at Lozells Primary School in Birmingham how different our learning environment is to theirs.

Poetry Recital competition

The prizes have been bought... have you learned your poem yet?

Today I bought 3 fantastic prizes for our poetry recital competition: one for EYFS, one for KS1 and one for KS2. It made me wonder: are you choosing and learning your poem yet?

During the first week back, there will be a recital in each class to decide finalists for each category.

During the second week back, we will get together as a whole school to hear the finalists perform their poems and teachers will then vote on the winners.

Remember, we are looking for you to know your poem by heart, and listening out for super expression and intonation which fits with the words in the poem you have chosen.

Good luck!

Oak Class Assembly

A huge thank you to everyone who came to watch our assembly this afternoon.

Our animals theme certainly had a 'roar'!

Our visit to Lozells Primary School

Y5 had a wonderful morning visiting Mr Powell's class (5T) at Lozells Primary School in Birmingham.We thought about what is the same and different about our two schools, and then wrote about a school in Tanzania.
