This morning, several children from each school in the Braunton Learning Cooperative Trust went to the small green in the centre of Braunton to plant a tree and dedicate it to Captain Sir Tom Moore. The BLC Trust thought that this inspirational man and the duties he'd carried over his 99 years, represented so much of our own individual schools' [...]
Everything's been so busy on our return - we wanted to blog yesterday but we've just had so much to do! Our return has of course been made so much more pleasant with the weather. We were talking in our (two) staffrooms that the children have settled in really well, and have really enjoyed playing on the field with their [...]
It seems like ages since we've been in the Forest Village area to do any work, and even though we've most probably done parts 3, 4, and part 5 already, today seemed like the first time we've been back since we had the builders in. Since last summer, we've had a 20 foot square canopy erected over the artificial turf [...]
The DfE have asked that children and parents (and staff) get in touch with us if symptoms start, or there's a positive case of Coronavirus, within two days of being at school. That's Friday and Saturday for symptoms, and a positive result that could possibly be returned as late Wednesday, that you contact us please... at head@georgeham-primary.devon.sch.uk We would then [...]
Friday; It's Comic Relief Day! Some of the School Council children last week asked if we could wear non uniform for Comic Relief... with the 'theme' being colourful clothes! YES you can!! Bring a donation in (there'll be a tub in each classroom) but do also click the link below for ease. https://www.comicrelief.com/rednoseday/
Whereas most parents would've collapsed on the sofa with a cuppa at 9.20am, or gone for a peaceful walk on the beach this morning, all of us at school had an extremely busy and noisy time catching up with each other.... and it was lovely! It was an industrious day and the children did lots: they thought hard about what [...]
Max is a year 6 pupil at Caen Primary, and one I'm of really inspired by! His friend told to him to have an adventure and wow, he did!! I'm inspired, because Max has been camping out in a tent in his back garden since the first pandemic Lockdown back in March 2020 all to support his friend and raise [...]
A lovely, sunny afternoon, so it was one more small step (literally - prepping the step!) for the Eco Cabin. The framework won't take long at all now, and the girls who designed it before Lockdown back in December will be really happy to see it develop further! We've plans for some more tasks around our grounds, and maybe a [...]
We've blogged about Home Debate Club before... it's a question, posted online, to help families and classes take part in a fun online debate to boost wellbeing, support a deeper thought process on something topical and to encourage an acceptance on other's opinions. This week's question, asks, "Should having the internet be a human right?" Click here to start the [...]
Just a touch less than two weeks of Remote Provision and then we're all back on the 8th March! I've got to say that I'm looking forward to some normality and seeing everyone back in... and what a term to have this as our school value for the half term - We Are Community! I bet, after a rainy and [...]
