KS1 Visit to Sundown

What a fantastic time our KS1 children had at Sundown. Here are some photos that should make you smile!

Thank you to all the staff and parents for helping to make this day so special for the children.

Getting ready for our Christmas Fayre!

Today, as the Year 6 children were making their snow globes, some very important visitors popped in!

 Sarah and Ann, Tesco Community Champions from the Garforth store, met Ruby and presented her with a hamper of Tesco goodies to be used as a raffle prize at Friday's Christmas Fayre.

 Ruby was so pleased that Sarah had responded to her letter with a superb gift and even more delighted when Sarah and Ann took time out of their busy schedule to visit our school. Thank you, Tesco.....you are true community champions!

Hi-Five Netball Tournament at Brigshaw

Well done to all our Hi-Five/Netball players who played this evening at Brigshaw. Brilliant passing, shooting and footwork skills from Harry, Olivia, Ethan, Donny, Alyssa, Kande, Valentine and Archie!

Badminton Bonanza!

We had great fun practising our badminton skills and drills this evening at Brigshaw High School. Thank you to Mr Parkinson and the Brigshaw Sports Leaders for hosting the event and a massive thanks to the dedicated sports coaches from our local Badminton Clubs based at Garforth  and Kippax....(Gabby, Jess, Harriet and Laura......this is where it all started!!!)

Fruit Sculptures

We love our striking fruit sculptures based on the work of a range of still-life artists such as the French artist Paul Cezanne. We have improved our mastery of art and design techniques using Papier Mache. Some of our creations look good enough to eat! Thank you Mrs C.....we look forward to our weekly art lessons!

Wilderness Adventures

What an amazing challenge Steve, Director of Wilderness Adventures, took on this morning in our school grounds! Oscar Bedford had filled in the hazardous pond during the Summer holidays, but the area quickly became overgrown with brambles, nettles and weeds as you can see from the "before' photos below.

After a few sessions of hard graft, Steve has transformed the area creating seating, a fire-pit and a frame just waiting for a tarpaulin covering so that children can enjoy learning about the natural environment and increase their knowledge of the beautiful habitat in our school grounds. Can't wait to see it in use tomorrow......bring on the rain! (Wish I was in Wheler Class!!)

Children in Need
