Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
We enjoyed workshops led by Mrs Weatherburn. The children learned about meat free alternatives and the impact of healthy eating on our bodies and the environment. We also were able to taste three delicious dishes.
On Wednesday 25th October Mr Martin Simpson, one of our Governors arranged for the children to all plant crocus bulls in the Church garden. The project is part of the Rotary Club project to support the End Polio Now Campaign by planting purple crocuses. Mr Simpson also spoke to the children in assembly about the appeal. The School Council are working on a fundraising idea to support this project later in the year. Thank you to Mr Simpson for organising this lovely activity for us which supports such an important project.
We held a non uniform day to support World Cerebral Palsy Day and we raised £72.00. The money donated will be given to a charity which supports one of our children. Thank you for all of the donations.
Mr Godfrey led a brilliant Numberfun Day. We began with a worship focusing on talents and this included a video of children in a school in a different community from ours. Each class then had a maths session based on the Numberfun songs. We are now looking forward to including the songs in our maths lessons.
We had a lovely Harvest Festival Service in St Thomas’s Church. Each class presented a Harvest song or poem and the choir also performed. We brought food donations for PAFRAS which were received by Rev’d Sarah and we also included a Global theme in the service by supporting Farm Africa and wearing our wellies to the service. Thank you for all of the donations, we raised £84.67 for Farm Africa. Thank you also to Ainsty Farm Shop who donated the beautiful Harvest Sheaf.
Well done also to the school choir sang harvest songs at Cafe Church on Sunday 7th October in Whixley Village Hall.
