Forest School Taster Session

The Y2 children had a fun time last Friday when Mr Furness and his team of 'outdoor rangers' visited our school. 

 The children 'pulled together' and demonstrated the importance of working as a team.

 They made friendship bracelets.....

 and learnt lots of facts about the great outdoors!

Our grateful thanks goes to Mr Godwin from Elite Sports for organising this taster session for us.

Year 6 Working Scientifically!

The children in Y6 planned a scientific enquiry to find out which materials made the most effective filters.

 They used a range of scientific equipment....

 made sure the 'test' was fair by measuring accurately and precisely...

 reported and presented findings from their enquiries.....

 set up further comparative and fair tests...

and enjoyed the challenge of working like scientists to support their ideas.

Welcome to Lady Eliabeth Primary School

Some of our new Reception children visited school this week. They joined in learning through play in The Ark indoor and outdoor areas. It was lovely to meet them and their parents and we are looking forward to them joining our school in September. They looked like they enjoyed their visit!

Y6 visit to the Ark design studio

The Year 6 children had the opportunity on Tuesday to spend a couple of hours learning about the design process involved in creating a new 'logo' to advertise our Ark at school. Co-incidently, Mr Bentley's business is also called the Ark and together the children, Brian ( a graphic designer) and Mr Bentley came up with a fantastic logo which will be etched into the frosting on The Ark windows at school. Our grateful thanks go to Mr Bentley and his wonderful team. We hope to see our finished design around the school premises in the Autumn Term.

Sports Day and Summer Fair

Some photos of our amazing Summer Fair activities!The afternoon was perfect....not too hot and the rain held off. The children loved the races during the Sports event; favourites being the 'Run to the Beach' Race and the Year group Flat Race finals; exciting stuff! Thank you to everyone who came and supported.
