Base 5 and Base 6 will be having their Christmas Parties on Wednesday 14th December.

As the children will be having their party in the morning, please only bring in a very small amount of party food. They will be eating around break time, which is not long before lunch, and we still want them to be able to eat their lunch. So just a couple of small snacks will be more than enough, please provide in a named container or plastic bag.

The children can come in to school in party clothes, but please remember they will still be going outside at break and lunch time, and it is very cold at the moment, so lots of layers and sensible shoes are still required.

Merry Christmas!

This morning we learnt all about the importance of recycling! We then worked in groups to sort out a selection of pictures in to the correct recycling bin.

We really enjoyed learning about the changes that happen in Autumn in our Science lesson this morning.

Some of the children from Year 1 were picked to go and read to Bonnie yesterday afternoon, they all said that Bonnie was a very good listener!

Show Racism the Red Card’s annual Wear Red Day will be taking place on 21st October 2022.

2021 was a monumental year for us. As well as it being our 25th Anniversary as the UK’s leading anti-racism educational charity, an incredible 250,000 individuals registered to celebrate with us on Wear Red Day. To us it was a sign that we have never been more in demand, more needed or more relevant.

As a charity, we exist through necessity and as a supporter you drive us on to be the best that we can be. As a supporter you are showing your true brave colours. As part of the team you make us stronger.

Every heart and every mind that we change changes at least one life but has the capacity to change hundreds, if not thousands of others. Be a proud anti-racist. Be the difference. Join us.

Wear Red.

Change Hearts. Change Minds. Change Lives.

This week in our Art lesson we have been learning about Alma Woodsey Thomas.

Alma was born in Columbus, Georgia, the oldest of four girls. In 1907, her family moved to Washington, D.C., seeking relief from the racial violence in the South. Though segregated, the nation’s capital still offered more opportunities for African Americans than most cities in those years. Alma became an important role model for women, African Americans, and older artists. She was the first African American woman to have a solo exhibition at New York’s Whitney Museum of American Art, and she exhibited her paintings at the White House three times.

We focused on her painting ‘Circles’, we split in to different groups, and each group painted a different coloured corner. We will be picking 4 corners to put together and display in the hall, once the art work has been displayed we will upload a photo for you all to see.
