Year 1 visit Manor House Library

Year 1 thoroughly enjoyed the story telling session at the library today!

Pests and Peaches Art Gallery

We thoroughly enjoyed our drawing lesson from Quentin Blake and I’m sure you’ll agree that the finished results are brilliant. We have a whole host of centipedes and a pile of flying peaches on the walls so do ask Mrs Peters if you’d like to come and have a look.

A Dahl-iciously creative afternoon in Year 3

Reasoning and Reading – Thursdays in Year 3

This session is a great opportunity to lose yourself in a book, read for pleasure and take time browsing for your next reading adventure.
