Firstly, can I thank you all for your donations over the last few weeks - sponsorship money, Easter Egg Competition and Lenten boxes! The children had a good look at each others’ eggs today in the hall and it has been such a lovely event!

This week has been so moving at our school. The Easter assemblies from Year 2 to Year 6 have been so special, allowing us all to reflect deeply on what it means to be Jesus’s followers and walk into the light towards Him. Children have been writing about what the Crucifixion and Resurrection mean to them personally after each assembly.

This week, the children have also been writing their own Brer Rabbit stories. They are witty and in keeping with the genre. After the holidays, we will be doing Shakespeare lessons - this time it will be Julius Caesar. The RSC are doing a performance of this at the Grand Theatre in May -it will be well worth a watch!

In History this week, it has aligned perfectly with RE, because we have learned all about England’s conversion to Christianity in Anglo-Saxon times. Also, we have greated a living graph to show the onslaught of the Vikings in Anglo-Saxon England and what degree of threat they posed in controlling our country.

Let’s Celebrate!

This week, Luke has received a focused learner certificate for concentrating so hard. Also we thank you Luke for your tech support in our assembly.
