On Thursday 21st March we took part in the 'Lots of Socks Campaign' for World Down Syndrome Day.
World Down Syndrome Day is a global awareness day which has been officially observed by the United Nations since 2012. We asked everyone to come into school in their brightest and boldest socks to celebrate everything that makes all of us different and yet the same.
You can find out more information and donate here - www.worlddownsyndromeday.org/lots-of-socks-campaign
Thank you to you all for dressing in red and sending in your donations for Comic Relief. We raised £139.80!
We really enjoyed our coaching session with John Rednall from the English Indoor Bowling Association at the Falcons bowls club. Thank you to everyone involved.
We loved seeing everyone's world book day costumes today! Thank you to the school kitchen for going the extra mile!
Thank you to Cllr. Mike Steel who cut the ribbon and opened our new mushroom scooter pods today with the pupils from our school council. Thanks to Cllr Steel the school secured a grant to pay for the new scooter pods just in time for the ‘Big Walk and Wheel Event’ week which takes place between the 11th and the 22nd March 2024.
The school council choose the colour’s of the mushrooms on behalf of all the pupils at school. We hope to see the mushroom pods used every day as part of our travel initiative, which is to encourage more walking and wheeling to school.
Remember, even if you drive to school, you can still help the initiative by parking further away and walking the rest of the way to school.
On Tuesday 5th March, the whole of KS2 went to IWM Duxford. It was a brilliant day. All the children behaved themselves and everyone got to see many of the war planes and vehicles used in World War One and World War Two. The children got to climb aboard Concorde, they saw Spitfires, Hurricanes, Lancaster Bombers, ammunition cases, tanks and much more.

Our Year 4 children attended a Super Stars Festival, which is a fun multi skills event in Chelmsford. Ms Lovell said the children worked really well as a team and had a great time competing against other local schools.
We welcomed parents and carers from Class Africa into school for lunch, the roast chicken followed by apple crumble and custard went down very well. Thank you to Mrs Mixture and the lunchtime team.
Thank you to FOGWS for organising the school discos for the children. A great time was had by all!
Identity and Diversity Pupil Summit: Growing Future Leaders
Lucy and Charis, from year 4, joined 11 other schools from the Chelmsford Diocese in a summit celebrating identity, diversity and growing future leaders. The day, which was held at Chelmsford Cathedral, was filled with hope, learning, listening, empowerment and music. We were so proud to be part of this.
On Wednesday 24th January we had our first session of 'Everyone Reading in Class'.
This is a new reading initiative to evoke a love of reading and sharing favourite stories with children in different classes.
The children spent time sharing books from our 'Top Ten Reads' and other favourite books.
