We raised an amazing £250 for CAFOD World Gifts. Each class decided how they would spend their money raised. Class 1 have given goats and chickens, Class 2 have given two pairs of piglets, Class 3 have given a vegetable garden, water for a family and a school starter pack, Class 4 have given ducks, school starter pack and the gift of teaching someone to read. The staff also decided to not send christmas cards this year and have given a health kit and mother and baby care pack. Thank you for all the support in helping us raise such a fantastic amount and give the best christmas presents.
On Wednesday, we had our Christmas dinner - it was a feast!
Thanks to Mrs Moore and the rest of the lunchtime staff.
We are open today Friday 3rd December.
On Thursday 1st July, we all took part in the campaign 1GOAL - Send My Friend to School. The campaign highlights the need to provide education for all children, no matter where they live in the world. In 2000, world leaders promised that by 2015 all primary children would be able to go to school. There are currently 72 million children who don't go to school. Half of these children live in Africa. We decided to remind them of that promise.
We wrote letters to send to the Prime Minister and we made a giant scarf with messages reminding him to keep his promises. In September, world leaders will meet at the UN to see hwo much progress they're making on this goal. We'll keep you posted.
We had fabulous time today when the 'Expo Chef' visited school. She taught us how to make healthy burgers, smoothies and vegetable casserole. Even the children who didn't like vegetables loved the casserole!! Look out for your recipe book coming your way!

8th and 9th of June were exciting days for Year 2. Textile designer Donna Cheshire came in to work with Year 2. She designed a banner based on a Gospel quote from Luke Chapter 18 "Let the children come to me". The children learnt to felt and print designs. Come in and take a look at our finished banner. It looks amazing if we don't say so ourselves!
