  Today 17 children from school were lucky to experience a day of football
  training and activities with former Lioness Jill Scott, who won the euros
  with the England ladies 🏆Which was absolutely fantastic! The children
  spent the day taking part in different football challenges, meeting and
  speaking with Jill on numerous occasions, getting their shirts, medals
  and football boots signed and also being interviewed!
  As this event was sponsored by Nike and Sports direct, all children that
  took part received a free pair of Astro turf boots, T-shirt and socks to
  keep, as well as a goodie bag! All the children were so excited and had a
  fantastic time, what an amazing opportunity!

  Term 6 in Reception is children’s choice and this week the children
  chose to make some summer arts and crafts. We have made jellyfish,
  created some pointillism paintings of the beach, made crabs and
  designed our own ice lollies.

  

• No Pen Day

  Mon 01 Jun 2026 Mrs Handy

  On Wednesday it was NO PENS DAY and in Year 1 we were very creative, we acted out the story of Little Lord Feather Frock in Literacy and we practically found a quarter of a quantity in maths.

  In Year 2 on “No pens day” we took the opportunity to learn about the work of
  Jackson Pollock. He created some amazing art using unusual techniques and so did we. Please ask us how we created our art work!

  Year 3 for ‘No Pen day’, using pasta to communicate in morse code, having a cup
  stacking competition and playing the 'yes, no' game. The children were thrilled at the idea of no writing for the day!

  Year 4 really enjoyed our ‘No Pen Day’ activities. During our times tables challenge, we worked with partners to chant multiplication facts and quickly find the answers. We also used our communication skills when classifying animals into different groups.

  Year 5 for No Pen Day, the children investigated the features of Viking longships before designing and creating their own models out of cardboard. They were delighted with their finished products and should be very proud of their creativity
  and teamwork!
