Teachers Rock started just over five years ago and I only went along to the first rehearsal due to an evening meeting being cancelled. I had already emailed about the excellent choice of songs they were going to do and I found myself being 'encouraged' to do a solo in Reef's 'Place Your Hands' as a result! Devon's Music Advisor, [...]
Georgeham colours were out in full force at this weekend's Gliddon and Squire Cross Country meet. It's amazing to see the team grow larger at each event - clearly word is spreading about how much 'fun' it is to run around a muddy field on a Sunday morning (for kids) and eat bacon sandwiches (for parents). Elsie L and Myah [...]
What a wet day for a running event... but it's 'across' country and not dry-tarmac running so we were (kind-of) prepared for a muddy and wet course. It was actually quite reminiscent to the cross country running I used to do as a kid - long, cold, muddy and wet - and I wasn't the only person that thought this! [...]
We're super proud of the fourteen awesome rock monkeys (previously known as children from Georgeham School) who took part in the South West Inter Schools Climbing Competition at Rock and Rapid this weekend, competing against over 100 children from primary schools across Devon. Kindness. Confidence. Curiosity. Community. Adventure. Ambition. All the school values were on show today as our team [...]
Class 3 had a great time at Tarka Tennis last week...... Next stop Wimbledon!!
Should Theo shout at the boys? Should he shout, or should he lower his voice? Should they move closer so that he doesn't have to shout? After shouting at the boys at the top of the field, should Theo then shout at them again from the top of the field when they've moved to the bottom?? Does the Gazebo get [...]
A really busy and productive morning in class 3! We used Google Classroom to collect in a list of everyone's clubs and activities. Everyone edited the same Google Document and it was fun watching the document grow in size, and font choice, and colour! We also discussed the sharing of information and how we trusted each other with our documents [...]
Class 3 were lucky to have a lovely day for our WW2 workshop today and we had a great time finding out about life for children and evacuees, drills, Morse code and code breaking as well has having the opportunity to hold and investigate different artifacts. We learnt to spot who might be a spy (who would have suspected innocent [...]
What a lovely afternoon's service! Class 4 started us off with a walk through from 1868. What would they put in a Time Capsule back then? We fast tracked back to the present day and opened up their Time Capsule only to start another in the present day... and again we zoomed to the school of the future where they [...]
This weekend Georgeham fielded its first ever team in the annual Gliddon and Squire North Devon Cross Country League. The league is open to children in year 4 and upwards and sees hundreds of children from local primaries, secondaries and the athletics clubs taking part in a series of meets throughout the winter. It is super friendly and welcoming to [...]
