Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Today Mother Laura visited the school to lead our collective worship in the school hall. Mother Laura spoke to the children about the origins of Mothering Sunday and also about all the different mothers that are in the Bible. She also asked the children to think of all the things our mothers or mother figures do for us and how the children could help our mothers. The children all sat beautifully listening to Mother Laura. Thank you to Mother Laura for such an uplifting service today.
Don't forget that next week we will be opening the annual Mother's Day Pop Up Shop so that children can choose a present for their mums or mum figures. All gifts will be £2.00.

Today, Mrs Hoskins and the History Detectives led an assembly all about International Women's Day. The children shared 5 women who have changed history. The children then had to decided which women they thought had made the biggest impact in history. Ask your child which one they voted for and why? Look out on this week's newsletter for a report on the assembly by the History Detectives.
Well done to everyone for their amazing World Book Day Competitions, everyone looked fabulous. During the day the children all took part in contributing to the writing of a book all about Kenya.
