News and Events
Upcoming events:
Year 2's WOW day
In Year 2 we had our Animals in the cold WOW day. The children went on an expedition to the South Pole after learning all about Robert Falcon Scott. They made base camps and painted penguins. In the afternoon, the children carried out a science experiment to see which material would melt the ice the fastest and rescue the trapped penguins!
Science Day
For our science day, the whole school completed the challenge of filtering dirty water as part of ‘Ditch the Dirt’ by Practical Action. All of the children discussed where their water came from and how much water they used every day and then compared this to a child living in the Turkana district in Northern Kenya. The children then had to choose an appropriate container to take with them and hunt down the water holes around school. We explored how this might be dangerous for the children in Kenya and how they get ill from the water that they collected. Afterwards, we investigated the water quality that we had collected. This was followed by a challenge to make a water filter so the children could ditch as much of the dirt as possible. The children loved it and some even designed their own water filters, which involved using solar panels.
Christmas Jumper and Dinner Day
Look at our amazing jumpers!
Christmas Tree Festival
KS1 enjoyed making the decorations for the local Christmas Tree Festival in Hucknall. Three lucky children were chosen to help decorate the tree and had great fun.

This years theme was 'Change starts with us'. Throughout the week the children completed different tasks relating to this years theme.
Odd Socks Day
On Tuesday 12th November 2019, the children wore odd socks to help raise awareness of bullying.
UK Parliament Week 2019
On Thursday 7th November, all children and staff in school took part in a school council election.
The children were all given a voting form which they completed on their own and they were able to choose one candidate for the chair of school council.
Four children from year 5 helped run the election and they were AMAZING!
A big thankyou to Mrs Houldershaw, Mrs Pickard, Mrs Tyler and Mrs Harris for organising and making the electron run smoothly.
