Bike-It-Breakfast and Dr. Bike

Well done to those children and parents who came to school today on bicycles and scooters to be rewarded with a "Bike-It-Breakfast!"
Our thanks to Jonathan Dixon, our Sustrans Officer for giving all the bikes at school a "Bicycle Health Check". Jonathan has fixed lots of bits and bobs that needed fixing and left each bicycle with a "report" of what work needed doing.

Year Three visit from Sustainable Schools' Officer, Alison Jay

Year Three enjoyed a visit today from our Sustainable Schools' Officer, Alison Jay.
Alison talked to the children about how we can "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" and the children played a thought-provoking board game to draw their attention to how this is part of our everyday lives.
Alison gave the class some pencils that had been made from recycled plastic cups.

Loom Band Fantastic - 14th June 2018

Indi-Rose in year 2 has thought of an exciting project which could raise lots of money for our Big Project.  Thinking big, Indi-Rose with the help of you, would like to create a Loom Band which stretches all of the way to Maiden Castle!  There will be a stall at our Summer Fair next weekend.  We need your help though.  If you have any loom bands gathering dust we could put them to a really good use!
