In the early hours of Saturday morning, we bid 'Bon Voyage' to a group of 55 students and staff as they headed off on an exciting four-day trip to Paris. First stop was a visit to the top of the Arc de Triomphe, where they took in breathtaking panoramic views of the city. This morning, they travelled back in time at the Château de Vincennes, a 14th-century fortress packed with stories of kings, battles, and even prisoners. And this is just the beginning—stay tuned for more updates from their Parisian adventure! 😃🇫🇷✨

It was a WOW WEEK for Year 5! Thanks to Julia Buckley MP for responding to the children's letters about River Severn pollution and inviting them to Westminster Palace.

Well done to Super Squirrel 🐿Olive in Year 1 for writing to Sir David Attenborough and getting a HAND-WRITTEN reply! Olive had written to Sir David asking ‘What is the most important thing we can do to save the planet?’
Sir David always replies to letters and has made Olive’s day! It just goes to show how powerful writing can be 😀

🧪 Maths potion making in Year 6! 🧪
In true Harry Potter 🪄 style, pupils had to solve different maths problems in order to
achieve each magical ingredient. Once finished , they created a fascinating (and rather smelly) fizzy potion which they then retrieved a spooky surprise from! 🕷️
Here are some pics of my lovely witches and wizards in action! 🧙♀️ 🧙♂️
A big thank you to Lucy for the amazing set up! ♥️

Our third full day in NYC 🗽❤️
Another incredible (and busy!) day in the Big Apple! We started the morning with breakfast from a mixture of eateries near the Flatiron before heading off for a classic NYC experience—the Statue of Liberty. It was amazing to see this iconic landmark up close and learn more about its history.
Next, we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge, taking in the stunning views before stopping for lunch in DUMBO. Then it was back to Manhattan for a real highlight—watching the sunset from the Top of the Rock. The skyline looked absolutely breathtaking!
After that, we soaked up the atmosphere at Rockefeller Center, took in the bright lights of Times Square, and ended the day with a well-earned dinner at Hard Rock Cafe.
Everyone is having an amazing time, making memories, and making the most of every second! Final update to come tomorrow! 🗽🌉🌆🍽️

Our Caterpillars invited their grown ups in to school this morning, to see what fun happens at Forest School! 🍂 🧡
As well as the obvious benefits of risk taking and confidence building; Forest School is the perfect outdoor classroom to develop social skills, language and communication skills, motivation and concentration, physical skills and knowledge and understanding of the world. 🌍
We’re super lucky to have Miss Stone & Mrs Engler as our Forest School trained leaders. Thank you to all of our grown ups that came today! We hope you’ve warmed up a bit now. 🥶 ... See MoreSee Less
