Spring 2021

Spring 2021 has been really unusual due to another lockdown. We have had some children in school and some at home. All the children have been working hard but have been thrilled to return to school this week.

March 8th Hooray. We are back at school.

We celebrated World Book Day on the 4th March. Our pupils shared books, listened to stories, made posters and made reading dens.

4Du always produce some excellent pictures and the pupils enjoyed doing Art during lockdown as it gave them a break from the computer screen.

The children have really enjoyed their final week in school. They have had a party, a film with hot chocolate, a lower junior quiz, entertainment from Mr Houghton and Mr Johnson and a rather muddy but enjoyable robin hunt.
