A fabulous year of fundraising has meant that we have been able to bring magical musical instruments to the KS1 playground and the ace active play pads to the KS2 playground.

These activities provide structured, interactive and enriching play for all year groups - helping to keep the children busy in the best possible way. Make sure you check them out if you are in the playground and be sure to get the low down on those play pad hi-scores from the children!

The moveathon fundraising has allowed the school to create a calm space inside the school and a KS2 calm space in the playground. It looks amazing and we look forward to enjoying the meadow! 🌸🌼

Also, the side gate to the outdoor classroom has been installed, which means the children will be able to access this space more easily. It will be used as a KS1 calm space both during break/lunch times and for all children for class-based activities throughout the day. 🪄👍🏼

Our newest project has been the recent delivery of an outside classroom. It was so important to the school as it allows lessons to be delivered outside, increasing children's access to the outdoors and bringing an element of fun and excitement to learning. The new tables have games surfaces which will allow "quiet play" during lunch and break times too. Our aims are to connect the classroom to the nature space and re introduce some "nature inspired" learning and to include some planters around the new classroom to get the children gardening too!

One of the largest projects funded to date has been the Multi Use Games Area in the playground. The previous surface was broken, water logged and covered in moss so any sports activities were seriously hampered! The new MUGA is bright, bold, safe and fun providing football, netball, tennis and cricket matches to be played as well as all PE lessons to be taken outside! This area us a genuine benefit to each and every pupil and we are very proud of it!
