• Walk to School Week October 2009!

  Wed 28 Oct 2009

  Last week all our pupils were encouraged to walk to school as part of an international campaign. For Walk to School Month 2009 the theme was 'Count me in' and the focus was on making walking measurable and helping pupils discover how easy it is to reach the recommended daily 60 minutes of moderate physical activity when walking to school is included.

  
  On Tuesday and Thursday before school children took part in fun (and exhausting!) circuits sessions and on Friday morning we held our coffee mornig for parents who had walked to school too!
  On Friday afternoon, in a special assembly we held a prize draw of all the completed stamper charts in every year group. Congratulations to all our winners and a massive thank you to Mrs Jonsmyth,  Mrs Hutchinson, Mrs Dunn, Mrs Howard, Mrs Richers and Mrs Milnes on the Safer Routes team for stamping charts and pouring coffee and tea!

• We all had such fun during Book Week!

  Fri 09 Oct 2009

  What a week! The entire school celebrated National Children's Book Week - each class focussed on a different book and based all their lessons on this. From Art to Geography, Dance to ICT, we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and produced some super work in the process! (This will be on the website soon - check out the Gallery!) Today (Friday) we have all dressed up as different book characters and we shared our work with each other in a special assembly. Even the teachers dressed up! The Bucks Free Press came and took photos of us all so check the paper next week!
