The school council organised the Children in Need events this year raising a superb £423.44! They decided that everyone should come to school dressed in spots and they arranged an afternoon of table top games for the children to enjoy.
Robinwood 2023
Our Year 5 and Year 6 pupils had an action-packed 3-day residential visit to Robinwood, Barhaugh Hall. They did many exciting activities including Trapeze, Zip Wire, Crate Challenge, Climbing, Raft Building, Canoeing, Caving, Giant Swing and Piranha Pool.
Despite the warm weather, our pupils never complained and received significant praise for their calm, sensible behaviour from the centre’s nighttime staff. While completing the activities, our pupils impressed their instructors with their excellent teamwork, effective communication and resilience and by encouraging their teammates to overcome their fears. It was an adventure to remember!
Eco Team
Writing our Eco Code
Our school’s Eco Team met this week to discuss ways in which we can help the environment whilst in school. We discussed current issues surrounding the price of gas and electricity and how we can make savings in school to save money and energy. The team then worked on designing their own posters to display around the school to remind everyone of how they can help. Some of the ideas that we came up with were:
- Turning lights off when we don’t need them
- Turning monitors off when the computers aren’t being used
- Making sure doors are kept closed
- Making sure taps are turned off properly
- Try not to waste too much paper and remember to recycle
-
