• Cross Country Competition

  Awesome! The children all did amazingly at the Family of Schools Cross Country competition. As well as achieving two individual medals, we are so proud that the Year 3/4 team won overall gold!

  

• Shakespeare Schools Massive

  Fri 10 Mar 2017
  Our Shakespeare drama club performed twice at The Nottingham Playhouse Theatre in front of nearly 2000 people across the two shows. It was incredible to see these year 3-6 children not only speaking the Shakespearean text, but being so confident and clear under the professional stage lighting, on the main stage. We are so proud of their hard work and achievements. Please see below for some of our Romeo & Juliet photos.

  

• World Book Day

  Sat 04 Mar 2017 MCL

  Everyone had a wonderful time dressing up for the 20th year of World Book Day. The day began with our 'Starbooks Café' - a time for children, parents and staff to get together before school to share books as well as to have breakfast!

  World Book Day is a celebration of authors, illustrators, books and, of course, a celebration of reading. It is apparently marked in over 100 countries all over the world! Over the last couple of weeks, pupils have had the chance to visit the book fair and have received a book token. Happy reading everyone! 

   

  

• A cracking news story

  Tue 28 Feb 2017 Chris Outram

  On Monday, we took delivery of our eggs and today they started to hatch.

  At 9:30am, the first chick hatched, a male called Fluffy (chosen by 5 'O').

  Then through the day four more started pipping and then broke out of their shells, to great excitement. The final chick to make its arrival was at the end of parents' evening in front of an excited audience. Tomorrow, they will be transferred to the brooder box. Then they will go on tour around the school. 

  

• Tree Planting

  Tue 21 Feb 2017 MCL
  Year 6 children enjoyed the task of planting trees around the lower school playing field which will enhance our school environment.

  

• Young Voices

  Sat 21 Jan 2017 MCL
   Our school choir had an exciting and memorable musical experience when they took part in the Young Voices concert at Sheffield Arena.  With around 5000 pupils taking part from schools from around the country,  Young Voices is the largest school choir event in the world! They worked hard in rehearsals with Mrs Cookson and thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Sheffield. It was a long but rewarding day.

  

• Singing at Broadmarsh

  Sat 17 Dec 2016 MCL
  Twenty members of the choir, along with Mrs Cookson, Mrs Rogers, Miss Lloyd and Mr Pierrepont travelled into Nottingham by bus to put on a performance in the Broadmarsh Centre. Their singing was fantastic and admired by family, friends and members of the public who came to watch and listen. Thank you to Peter Short, our Chair of Governors, who came to support us.

  

• Christmas Choir

  Fri 09 Dec 2016 MCL
  The choir, led by Mrs Cookson, performed a selection of traditional and contemporary Christmas songs in St Wilfrid's Square and later at the Springwater Lodge Care Home. They proved to be a real hit with shoppers as well as with family members and friends who came to listen. Thank you to everyone at Springwater Lodge who gave us a warm welcome and thoroughly enjoyed the children's singing. A BIG thank you as well to them for providing drinks and chocolate treats to everyone afterwards.

• Operation Christmas Child

  Tue 22 Nov 2016 Tina Brown
  We were absolutely overwhelmed with the support from our community in supporting the Operation Christmas Child charity. We send off boxes every year to children in other countries who will not receive gifts at Christmas. This year we sent a record 58 boxes! Many children created their own boxes at home but children also donated individual items to make 8 school boxes. These were sorted and packed by our Pupil Parliament who also helped the boxes onto the first part of their long journey - into Miss Brown's car to be taken to Arnold! Thank you so much for all your kindness and (dare I say it?) Merry Christmas!!!

  

• Starbooks Cafe

  Fri 18 Nov 2016 Tina Brown
  On Friday 18th we held another really successful "Starbook's Café" - this time to support Children in Need. Parents, friends and carers joined us before school for a cup of tea or coffee plus hot buttered toast. The hot chocolate was very popular with the children! Families then ate their breakfast and shared books together. Outlines of Pudsey Bear were covered with small change. The whole hall was buzzing - a lovely atmosphere. A cake sale was also held later in the day.
