Class 3 made Sediment pebbles a few weeks ago... We made TRACE fossils last week, which is where something leaves a trace that something was there... like Amelie's necklace (dropped and picked up), or Jack's dinosaur footprint. Today, we made BODY fossils. We almost layered our birthday-boy Barney between layers of salt-dough sediment, but we just didn't have enough salt dough [...]
If you look carefully at our school values, they were all there today in full view during our whole school biking day. I've added them to the bottom of this post so you can check! Again, another excellent wider-curriculum event for our children that has the added extra good-feel factor of being with our community. Thanks to everyone for helping! [...]
I can't recall if it's the smallest postal service in the UK or the oldest, but the children learnt about Lundy's one, and how the stamp doesn't have the queen's head on it and that it goes on the other side of the card; not that they knew which side it should go anyway! Oh, and you have to lick [...]
Have you got a small amount of time right at the end of the day this Wednesday, to help clear out our Preschool shed? 2.45pm if you do. Sadly, the shed roof has been damaged and much of its contents is now perished and mostly unsalvageable. We need to clear it and move the contents up to the Forest School [...]
We've started some Lego sessions at school but we're in need of some sets. Before we purchase these (it'll soon mount up!) we wondered if there were any Lego sets unused on a shelf somewhere in our wider community that could be donated to school? We're looking for any boxsets really, but the age appropriate 5 - 12 would be [...]
What a wonderful day... Simon, from Callington Space Centre, brought the Space Dome to the chapel and we all had a visit throughout the day. We were able to sit back, even lie down, and have a 360° view of our planet, solar system, the space station and much, much more. Here's just a few photos of what we saw [...]
Jon Gething got his hands on some trees and bushes for the community (recently planted on the Glebefields) but he had plenty left over and so he offered them to our school. We jumped at the chance, as there so much potential with what we could do with them. Thanks very much Jon! Class 4 had a debate about where [...]
In Class 2 we made some plastic-free poppies using card and pastels for Remembrance Day today. Thanks for the inspiration Nanny/Granny Ya-Ya!
There are only a couple of days left to bring in your shoeboxes for the Christmas Shoebox appeal. (Let's have the weekend included and have Monday as the absolute deadline!) Please do have a look at the leaflets that came home, or this link here… Some of you grabbed an MDF nativity character this morning from Rev. Mike. These will [...]
We've one more week left for collecting up items for Harvest. These will be heading off to St. George's Church after school next Friday, and then on to the local Food banks. Here's 2 carrier bags' worth already! Thank you! We'd love to keep the tradition of donating cash with these items too please. Rather than (we used to) sellotape [...]
