• Painted egg competition 2015 winners

  Fri 27 Mar 2015

  Please find below a Powerpoint presentation showing this year's winners of our Painted Egg Competition on the theme of 'history'.  Thanks to all children (and any adults who assisted them) - entries were of a very high standard and picking winners was very difficult!

• School meals

  Fri 07 Nov 2014
  We started offering hot dinners to our lower school children this week.  On Monday, when the pictures below were taken, pizza was served.  Children have had to learn lots of new skills such as carrying trays full of food and scraping off their plates off when they have finished.  We hope to offer meals to our upper school children in the new year (with a Christmas dinner available to all children before then).
  
  Menus for the coming weeks can be found on the 'Letters' part of the school website

  

• Osmington Bay 2014

  Mon 08 Sep 2014

  5.55pm
  
  The coach carrying the children is currently at the Dartford Crossing.  The current estimated time of arrival is just after 6.30pm.  Please look here for the latest updates of when the coach is likely to return - do not contact the school for this information.
  
  When the coach arrives, we ask that those collecting children wait in the school car park to ease congestion around the coach.  Children will be brought into the car park with baggage collected shortly after. 
  
  See the link below for pictures and details of the children's stay.

• Class of 2014 Leavers' Video

  Fri 18 Jul 2014
  Last six hours of primary school
  Goodbye is getting near
  The sums and sentences all done
  The full stop day is here
  
  Last five hours of primary school
  Where everything's before
  The aims and games and crazes
  no one’s crazy for anymore
  
  Last four hours of primary school
  Surrounded by a class
  Who'll scatter soon and not return
  when summer’s days have passed
  
  Last three hours of primary school
  One final lunchtime play
  Instead of chasing friends we try
  to chase and catch the day
  
  Last two hours of primary school
  The clock hands blur and skid
  Signing shirts, remembering
  the coolest things we did
  
  Last one hour of primary school
  With a teacher who understood
  And helped me see I could achieve
  ‘cos she believed I could
  
  Last ever second of primary school
  The full stop rings in our ears
  But a thousand chapters left to write
  We must vacate our childhood site
  For time moves on and time is right -
  To leave our wonder years

• Parents in Literacy feedback forms

  Tue 18 Mar 2014
  A feedback form for the Parents in Literacy week has been sent home with every child whose parent came in during the course of the week. Your feedback helps up to understand how you felt about your experience of the day and what additional support you might feel, as a parent, you would like.
  
  Please could they be returned as soon as possible, either through the office or your child's class teacher?
  
  Thank you for the already completed and returned forms.

• Bullybeat Video Launched

  Thu 21 Nov 2013
  As you may remember, on Wednesday 6th November, some of our very talented Year 5 and 6 pupils worked with Nathan and Sarah from the Songwriting Charity to produce their own anti-bullying anthem.  
  
  On Thursday 21st November, we were fortunate to welcome John Quinn from the charity to premiere the music video that was made on the day to accompany the song - have a look at the Year 6 blog to see the You Tube video - it's amazing and spreads such an important message about Anti-Bullying!
