  • KS2 Trip to Danbury Outdoors

    Published 30/06/25

    Our Key Stage 2 pupils demonstrated remarkable resilience and determination during their trip to Danbury Outdoors. Despite the challenging heat, they embraced the activities with enthusiasm. We were particularly impressed with the strength and courage they displayed during the climbing wall activity.

    I had an amazing day, packed full of fun and time with my friends! All in all, one of the best days of my life!

  • District Sports

    Published 16/06/25

    We have had a fantastic time at district sports this year. Everyone that took part behaved impeccably and tried their absolute best! They were the epitome of our ASPIRE values. 

    The field events took place on Monday 9th June. Our team of year 6 children were brilliant! The throwing, long jump and high jump events were all a pleasure to watch. 

    The track events took place on Monday 16th June. This involved children from across Key Stage Two. We finished in the top three in most events.  Our year 6 girls team need a particular mention - they won every event. Our relay team absolutely smashed their opponents.  Our overall placing in the whole competition was 3rd in the Small Schools group. This is a fantastic achievement.
