Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to attend our Online Safety/Maths Parent workshop, last Friday. We hope you found it informative and enjoyed learning with your children!
We visited the Verulamium Museum on Tuesday 3rd June 2025. WE went there to gain a better understanding and to look around the museum. It was a 45 minute drive.
When we arrived we got out of the coach and headed into the museum, we went downstairs to put our bags away. After we watched a video about the history of Verulamium. After we explored the museum, we also looked at a mummified frog. Suddenly it was our time for us to handle some actual Roman artefacts but some of then were replicas. Then we had lunch.
After lunch we had a short walk to the Hypocaust and looked a it, it had a mosaic over the underfloor heating system.
I would rate the visit 4/5 stars because I would have liked to see more artefacts.

Here are some before and after photos of Friday of half term where Mrs Horton, Mrs Thomas and Miss Greenwood came and helped build our new outdoor areas.
Thank you to their families who gave up their holiday to help! Ivy and Brew also had a great time!
At Waddesdon we went orienteering and did map making. The journey took about half and hour. When we arrived we ate and drank then started orienteering. The orienteering was around the entire Waddesdon grounds and took a long time to complete. after that we travelled to the front lawn near the Manor and ate our lunch. Afterwards we went to one of the gardens and made maps, we separated into groups and were given a ribbon to hide and mark on your teams map. We swapped maps and attempted to find the ribbons. When we finished that, we made our way back to the coach and came back to school.

Children in Year 1, 3 and 5 listening to e-safety awareness course given to them by Paul Ford from INet Guardian, the company holding the adult e-safety event for parents on the 6th June.
'As a parent of both primary and secondary school aged children, I highly recommend Mr Ford's e-safety awareness course. It was very informative' Miss Goodright
Mini Marathon
We took part in the mini marathon because last week 20,000 people ran the London Marathon. The charity we chose was Cancer Research UK to raise money for research. We had to run 8 laps of our school which was 2 miles! I found it hard (Rowan) as it was very tiring. I found it alright because I did a mixture of walking and running (Harry). The little ones seemed to cope well as it is a long way for them but they were smiling. Everyone who completed the mini marathon got a custom-made badge with a person running on it and mini marathon at the bottom.

First, we got on a coach and finally we got there. Then we spent time looking for the Africa bit with lions and meerkats. Next, we finally found the African part and there were giraffes and lions. After we ate our lunch. Finally, we saw the butterflies, one of the butterflies fell upside down and went on Emelia's shoulder.

First we got on the coach. On the coach after a while I was getting sleepy already. When we arrived at the zoo we tried to get to the lions first. Then we saw the meerkat. They were the cutest things I have ever seen. They were all scampering about like cute puppies. Next we had lunch and people kept dropping the food! Then we went to see the hippos. They kept sticking their bottoms out at us! After that we went to see the cheetahs, we only saw one. Finally we went to the butterfly room it was too hot.
