Sheriffhales' Published Authors!

Every pupil's work is now posted online, and we are hoping for lots of comments from around the world about their marvellous writing!

You can see the children's work here:

Thank you

A big thank you to http://www.historic-newspapers.co.uk/ who have provided a free newspaper pack to enrich Class 3's learning about the Titanic in the second half of Autumn Term.

Harvest Service

We said a tearful goodbye to Mrs Hancocks during our Harvest Service on Thursday, and wish her well for her future.

Children in Class 3 raised over £65 for the Melting Pot Cafe in Bilston by raffling their tear and share Harvest Tree loaves.

Thank you to all parents and carers for your generosity in donating for Mrs Hancock's leaving gift, the bread raffle and non-perishable food for the Melting Pot.

Digital artwork

Class 3 used the school ipads to create digital artwork in the style of Man Ray.

Pumpkin week

This week, children across all three classes have been enjoying all things 'pumpkiny'! We read "Pumpkin Soup" by Helen Cooper to start the week off, and each class has focused their learning this week around pumpkins.
