4H World Book Day Fun…
4H embraced World Book Day whole heartedly and we had so much fun throughout the day. The live draw along with Phil Shepherd inspired us to imagine our own characters and ideas for the front cover of a book. The finished products are so good I need to have a new wall built somewhere so that I can display all of them! Getting comfy with a cushion seemed to be a favourite part of the day as we read more of our key text: The Last Bear. There really is nothing better than sitting back, relaxing and reading or listening to a great story. I’m sure someone fell asleep…no names mentioned!
Don’t forget that your book token can be used for £1 off of a book from our book fair when it arrives!

This week we’re proud to share the beautiful story of UKS2s Expedition from last term ‘Earth Emergency’. The carefully designed planters and greenhouse will surely be a catalyst for Plover growing its own produce for generations to come!

XP on the TV!

We’d like to thank everyone who has got in touch or left a comment about the programme – we are so proud of our students and how eloquently they expressed how they feel about their school.

Save Our Seas!
2P have explored how humans have had a negative impact on our seas and oceans thanks to our need for plastic. We have looked at the history of plastic being found in our waters and how this even extends to discoveries in the very deepest parts of the Mariana Trench. 2P decided that we need this to stop! We have used our research to make posters to make people realise the damage we are doing.
