Today, our school came together for Children in Need Day, and the theme was "Wear Spots!" It was fantastic to see everyone embracing their creativity, donning spotty shirts, polka-dot socks, and even dotted face paint. The vibrant display of spots wasn't just for fun, though; it was all in the spirit of fundraising. We're thrilled to share that we raised an impressive £218.79! This generous contribution will go a long way in supporting children in need across the country, showcasing our collective effort and the power of community spirit. Well done to everyone involved!

The Year 3 trip to Wandlebury was an incredible adventure into the past! As the students explored the ancient Iron Age hillfort, they were fascinated by the remains of old structures and learned about the daily lives of people from thousands of years ago. With engaging guides and interactive activities, the children got hands-on experience with traditional crafts and tools. They could imagine what it was like to live in an Iron Age village, from building huts to making pottery. This trip not only brought history to life but also sparked a curiosity about ancient times that will stay with the students long after their visit.
