Robins Christmas dinner

Chirstmas dinner was delicious! We had lots of empty plates.

Bon Voyage Miss Cole

As the whole school were together this morning, it was the perfect opportunity to wish Miss Cole well on her travels, before she leaves us tomorrow.  Miss Cole is looking forward to her amazing trip to New Zealand but will be greatly missed by all the staff and children at Bitterne Manor.  Good luck Miss Cole!


at Bitterne Manor.  Good luck Miss Cole!

Awesome Athletics Again!

After a competitive couple of weeks our Indoor Athletes prepared themselves for the finals.  Some excellent competition along the way and hard work provided some excellent results.

Held at Redbridge School Bitterne Manor Girls topped the table and the boys close behind with second place.  Overall this meant that in our half of the city we managed to place 2nd!!
An excellent achievement and lots of fun.
Well done everyone that was involved!

Church Christmas Service


It was a warm welcome for everyone that attended our Christmas service at the Church of the Ascension yesterday. It was a lovely service with contributions from pre-school, our own choir, readers and the Rev. Andy Smith. Thank you for attending and celebrating the Christmas message with us.

Nightingales Stone Age Day!

Nightingales went back to the Stone Age on Friday! We had our own archaeologist log book and learnt how to research the past. We learnt about Stone Age burials and how they changed over time, the clothing they used, and the fact that the 'modern day' T-shirt is actually a 300,000 year old invention! We dug for our own artifacts and analysed them, created our own Stone Age art, understood how Stone Agers radically changed the British landscape and learnt about Stone Age food - they were actually very healthy and always had their 5 a day!

Coffee & Carols


Our children enjoyed sharing their singing and musical talents this morning with a concert to members of the local elderly community, grandparents and other guests. Possibly a few cakes may have been shared too...?


It's going.... to be replaced!


Over the next few days, we're having the 'woodchip' play area replaced with brand new equipment sponsored by the Lottery Fund and our own PTA! Hopefully, the new work will be completed by the end of the week - watch this space!
