Star Count!
Tue 23 Feb 2021Between the 6th and 14th of February, families were encouraged to take part in a National Star Count launched by the countryside charity CPRE. Excitingly this is the charity Ms Parks was a director of before becoming a teacher. Their website explained where to find Orion's constellation and how to count the stars that fall within it. Luckily there were a few clear evenings, perfect for a bit of star gazing! (Thank you to Rebecca and Olivia, Ella-Rose, George and Alice for sending in their photos)

Remembrance Day
Wed 11 Nov 2020First thing this morning, a small group of Falcons children visited the war memorial outside All Saints’ Church to place the school wreath. At 11am, the whole school paused to watch the film of these children placing the wreath, followed by a two minute silence (apart from Barn Owls Nursery who has a quiet story). It was impressive to see the respect the children showed and their discipline while observing the silence.

Falcons visit the River Room
Fri 18 Sep 2020Falcons Class took advantage of the beautiful weather this week and walked through the village to the River Room at All Saints’ Church. Mrs Hornsey has visited last week and a careful risk assessment had been drawn up with Reverend Helen.

Thank you Helen for making us so welcome!

A great start in the kitchens
Thu 10 Sep 2020Congratulations to our kitchen staff, Mrs Greenough and Terri. Of all the schools in the local area, we have had the highest ratio for take up of school meals so far this term. Thank you to all parents who have encouraged their children to take up this healthy, balanced meal option each day. Remember, if your financial circumstances have changed recently, speak to Mrs. Appleyard as you may be able to claim free school meals.
