Yesterday, the first ever World Daily Mile Day is took place on Thursday 27th April 2023. The Daily Mile is a simple, yet effective initiative where children run, jog, wheel, or toddle for just 15 minutes a day.
Hundreds of early years settings from around the world too part – including our own! Nursery completed 5 laps of the school field!
Here is Reception after they completed the Daily Mile 10th Anniversary challenge.
Last week we celebrated Children’s Mental Health Week in school!

The Times Table Rockstars competition – England Rocks – ended last night at 7:30 pm!
The winning class in our school was Year 4 – congratulations to them!
They finished in the top 3% of the country out of all the schools that entered.
Our top performer was Mohamad in Year 3 – Well done!
It was lovely to see some of our Year 6 children today who came to receive their Dictionary, Leaver’s Book and some collected their Extra Mile certificates and medals!
We wish them all the best at their new school in September!

Thank you to all the parents and family members that attended the Year 1 Parents Meeting for Phonics. This would have been really useful to enable you to support your children at home. Thanks to Mrs Tiwana for hosting the workshop.
Year 5 had the privilege of meeting author Alan Gibbons this week, as part of our celebrations around World Book Day. AlanĀ has written over 60 books and won many prestigious awards such as the Blue Peter Award for āThe Book I Couldnāt Put Downā, the Angus Book Award and the Stockport Book Award. He has also been shortlisted twice for the Carnegie Medal and his books have been published into dozens of languages.
The children arrived safely at around 12:25 this afternoon. They were then tasked with making their own beds and unpacking. The children then had lunch and we went for a walk, where we braved the torrential rain and gale force winds. The children are currently enjoying some free time before dinner.
