The Bare Necessities!
Here is a short clip of one of our pupils performing 'Bare Necessities' at our recent music concert. This amazing playing should make us all appreciate the value of supporting our children in taking up a music instrument! Well done, Nathan!

Tudor Tales
Year 3 enjoyed writing their own playscripts and creating a shadow puppet theatre for parents. They included historical facts and a lot of humour! Well done Year 3.
Year R try out the Tyre Park
Year R are the first class to test out the new Tyre Park:
"Wow this is so cool!".
"It's fun and we have to take turns."
"I like the big, round tyres because you can bounce on them like a trampolene."

Walk the walls!
This week saw year 5 walking the walls in Southampton! We found out lots of interesting information about the medieval walls, including lots of gory details about how the walls were defended! We have used the information we have found out to create our very own guide books about the walls of Southampton!
New Tyre Park Installed!
Thanks partly to contributions from our PTA and your support, a brand new tyre park is being installed on the school field for the children to enjoy! A tyre park is an outside play area made up of brand new heavy duty tyres which are then fastened to the ground either in halves or on their sides to make a great play area.

The design for our area was an idea from one of our school councillors. They were shown around the play area as it was being fitted and talked to the installers about their work.

Sports Day
Sports Day 2011 was a great success! All the children took part in teams representing Challengers, Freedom, Victory and Stars.

Each team took part in a round-robin of events to test their skills and their ability to work together. There was huge enthusiasm and everyone had fun taking part.

After the excitement of the class races everyone settled down for a picnic on the school field.

And the winner was...FREEDOM! For the second year running, the trophy was awarded to the captains of Freedom. Well done to everyone who took part and who came to support.
