Congratulations to all the pupils who took part in the Summer Reading Challenge over the holidays. Participants were asked to at a minimum, read a book from the library and write a review on the online library WebApp. Those who were up for more of a challenge undertook five additional reading for pleasure challenges which ranged from a book to a recipe, poem and even instructions for a toy. The next additional challenge was to design a book cover for the book they had read or one of their choice and the ultimate was to turn their contribution into a mini book and perhaps add more pages. It has been wonderful to read all the interesting book reviews and now have them published online for everyone to enjoy. Well done to those who undertook the additional challenges and created some beautiful cover designs and mini books. Particularly well done to those who read a lot of books. Feedback from parents was it definitely helped motivate their children to read over the break. The prizes were vouchers for the café and the completed designs will be on display in the Learning Hub.
It has been wonderful to see so many children in the Learning Hub this week enjoying reading during break-times, and also during JBs. The new bean bags, sofas and books have proved very inviting! In support of the whole school reading for pleasure initiative, a reminder to all that Relax & Read will be on every Wednesday and the last fifteen minutes of JBs everyday will be devoted to exploring different types of reading from periodicals, picture books, readings from year 8 pupils and free reading.
If any Y7&8 pupils are interested in being Senior Librarians this year, please do apply by reviewing the job description, completing the attached form and dropping it off in the Learning Hub. We would love to work with you. Thank you!
It was lovely to see our Year 3 and Year 8 buddies enjoying each other’s company this morning during some quiet reading time 📖
Some made the most of the nice weather by heading to the Walled Garden and Quad, while others chose the cosy comfort of the Learning Hub.☀️
Wherever they chose it was clear to see that both year groups are enjoying their new friendships

This morning, Year 1 had a great time at Forest School! 🍃
They learned all about the fascinating creatures and wildlife they encountered 🪲, helped Mr. Lee decorate the forest furniture 🎨, and had a blast swinging through the trees on the rope swing!
It’s wonderful to see the children having so much fun learning in the great outdoors.🌿
