It has definitely been an interesting week this week, and  today ended with a lost dog in the office!

Unfortunately, we couldn't keep her as the school mascot, as was suggested by some staff, children and a parent.

We celebrated our mothers and those who look after us like mothers this afternoon.  With limited time to practise, the children put together a beautiful assembly to say "THANK YOU".  Here are some photographs from the afternoon.

In Year 1, we have marked 'Engineering Week' by completing an engineering challenge.  Linking with our science and geography topics, we needed to find the windiest place in our school grounds.  We decided to make kites.  We looked at and evaluated different kites, tested materials and selected the…

Year 5 had great fun this week completing their engineeering challenge.  They had to design and make a cradle to carry a raw egg.  This was then dropped from an agreed height.  The aim was to keep the egg intact.

The children worked in groups of three on their design, thinking about suitable…
