Due to overnight snow that no doubt will be frozen by the morning... ...AND no food delivery, leaving us with nothing for the children tomorrow (!) we have no alternative than to be closed tomorrow. Today was lovely. The children enjoyed a snow-dust fight with/against me on the field and they enjoyed the Hot Chocolate and cookies in the hall [...]
We are Open until 1pm. We will close at 1pm due to snow coming our way and to ensure everyone can make their way home safely. Please only come to school if you feel it is safe to do so. We have hot chocolate for playtime, a warm lunch at lunchtime but sadly not much snow for snowmen; just some ice [...]
The Met Office is providing different reports for Braunton, Croyde and Putsborough for tomorrow's weather and possible timing of the arrival of more snow. Linked below (and pictured above) is the worst case scenario, for Putsborough. We plan to open and staff will attempt to come in to school, but we will make a final decision at 7.45am in the [...]

We've not got a full complement of staff to keep the children safe and the playground really is like an ice rink.

We really are quite happy indeed that, with 100% of our children reaching or exceeding the expected standard in maths at [...]
We started off our year 6 spotlights amazingly well this week with Owen and Jonah's spotlights on Street Performance and Wild Camping. Spotlights are what the 'Show and Tells' develop into as our children grow and improve on their confidence and public speaking through the school. This time, it's in front of the whole school, staff and some parents too. [...]
Stepping stones have been making the most out of the sunny weather. We have taken the opportunity to take our learning outside in the beautiful sunshine!
In stepping stones we have been working on number recognition and ordering, using our number cards and dinosaur spot cards
