  Bath Rugby Roadshow

   

  Children in EYFS and UKS2 were fortunate enough to have a “Rugby Roadshow” with Bath Rugby this Thursday. It was extremely enjoyable experience for all those involved and all children took something away from their sessions – the idea that Rugby is both fun and challenging!

  EYFS/Year 6 Buddies

   

  The Year 6 Buddies and all the EYFS children FINALLY got an opportunity to meet each other and engage in a PE lesson together on Tuesday. It was a wonderful afternoon and the older children were excellent role models to the youngest children in our school family.

   

  Here’s some pupil voice from Year 6 children about meeting their buddies.

   

  “I enjoyed the games with my buddies because we got to build a bond with them by talking to them and getting to know them personally.” Seth C.

   

  “I enjoyed meeting the children in Reception as they were very nice. They made my day when we played games with them.” Lucas H.

   

  “What I enjoyed was that I got know someone new, and that we played fun games with them which made them happy.” Imogen K.

  EYFS Trip to Longleat - Friday 10th May 2022

   

  Last Friday Foundation Stage went on their first ever school trip to Longleat Safari Park. The children and staff had a great day including trips on the train, the boat and the coach around the safari Park. The children also engaged in a workshop with two zoo keepers where they had an opportunity to get up close to a variety of animals and insects.

  The children were engaged with every opportunity and were fantastic ambassadors of the school.

  Well done Foundation Stage!

• Years 3 and 4 Ancient Greece Day

  Fri 27 May 2022

  Years 3 and 4 celebrated the term’s learning about Ancient Greece by dressing up today. It was an incredible display of  creativity and learning as children dressed as the Gods, Zeus and Poseidon, and Goddesses, Artemis and Hera. Others dressed as Greeks, rich and poor and the  heroes of Greek stories like Theseus and Ariadne. All this would not have been possible without the efforts of parents and carers for which the Phase team are very grateful.
