KS1 Odd Socks Day tomorrow
On Monday, 10th November, we are holding a KS1 ODD SOCKS Sponsored Walk!
The event will take place during the school day around the playground/field. We will be asking children to walk a mile with their friends!
All Children are welcome to wear odd socks (spotty, stripy, colourful socks etc).
All money raised will be split between our crew charity, ‘RSPCA’ and within our school community as part of KS1’s current expedition, ‘How will I be a Hero in my
Community?’
We are encouraging children to raise a small amount towards our fundraising projects as part of the sponsored walk. All children who raise money will receive a certificate.
Kind regards
KS1 Team

Presentation Superstars
This half term, we’re delighted to celebrate two amazing members of 5L who have won the Half-Termly Presentation Award for their fantastic improvement in handwriting , George and Casey!
Over the past few weeks, both children have shown real determination to make their writing neater, clearer, and more consistent. Their hard work and focus have truly paid off, and their books are a joy to read. From careful joins to beautifully formed letters, George and Casey have demonstrated the character trait of craftsmanship and quality – taking pride in their work, paying attention to detail, and striving to produce their very best every time.
Well done, George and Casey – I’m so proud of your progress, perseverance, and commitment to excellence. Keep up the brilliant effort!

Autumn Fall Fun
This week we have been learning about Autumn and the celebrations we celebrate during this period. Last week many of the children celebrated halloween. Yesterday we went on an Autumnal walk to spot the signs of Autumn. We’ve created autumnal animals. Today we had a camp fire and learnt about the history of bonfire night and how we stay safe around bonfires, fireworks and sparklers. Then we created some bonfire art. #LovePlover
