  • Mini marathon

    Published 24/04/26, by Jen Steele

    Mr Steele set the whole school the challenge of completing the mini marathon over 2 weeks and we had a great time trying!
    The challenge meant we needed to do 22 laps around the running track over the 2 weeks but some children managed up to 52!

    It was a fantastic way to challenge ourselves and show just how strong, resiliant and brilliant we all are!

    Published 02/03/26, by Jen Steele

    Apologies for any confusion caused about the Easter activities. To clarify, Year 1 will be taking part in the Easter Egg Challenge only and will not be participating in the Easter Bonnet Parade. Thank you for your understanding. WCM.

    If there are any children who would like to make an Easter bonnet and share it with the class, they are obviously more than welcome and these will also be celebrated on the blog.
