Happy Easter
We have had a super last week of term with Years 3,4 and 5 delivering their ‘Outstandingly Apley’ Easter show. They certainly sang from their hearts and it was a pleasure to watch. Thank you to everyone who came to watch and support them.
We also enjoyed our sponsored walk yesterday. It was great to have the whole school participating in this together. Thanks to all the volunteers who were Marshalls for us and to everyone who has sponsored the children.
I’d like to say a huge congratulations to Mrs Benton in Reception, who will be getting married over the Easter holiday and will return as Mrs Jones.
School returns on Monday 17th April. Wishing you all a lovely Easter break.

The melodic forest
Year 5 Forest school
The Year 5 group that came to forest school this afternoon avoided the rain despite working as a team to build a shelter they did not need in the end. They then heard the story of Hermes and Apollo. After hearing this story the children creatively went off and made some musical instruments using natural resources and wool which has been donated to the forest school. The children have done a wonderful job are are very proud of their creations.
Year 1 Church Visit
Last Thursday, Year 1 visited Christ Church in Wellington. They found out about different features inside a church and learnt about how Christians worship.
Forest School updates!
Woodworking shelter!
Forest school had a very exciting development over the weekend when a team of 4 came in and build the woodworking shelter. This shelter will be multipurpose as it will have benches under there for the children to work in all weathers including woodworking, weaving and much more!
A massive thank you to Mr Yardley, Miss Benton, Andy and Phil for dedicating a days work during the weekend, it will greatly benefit the children at Apley Wood Primary.
