Preschool Slime Time Messy hands, happy hearts! Preschool have been getting wonderfully messy with slime! Sensory play at its best, exploring textures, fine motor skills, colours and lots of giggles along the way. Sometimes the best learning happens with sticky fingers! #PreschoolLife #SensoryPlay #EarlyLearning #StPs
Year 5 – Greek Cooking in DT Opa! Year 5 have been cooking up a storm in DT, creating delicious Greek-inspired vegetarian dishes.

Reception Dinosaur Adventures ROAR-some learning! Reception wowed us in assembly with their dinosaur adventures!

Charles Darwin Day Evolution in action! Today is Charles Darwin Day, and Year 6 have been exploring evolution and natural selection in Science.

RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch Eyes to the skies! We took part in the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch, spotting and recording the birds visiting our grounds. A brilliant opportunity to slow down, observe nature and connect with the world around us. As a Platinum Woodland Trust school filled with giant trees we are fortunate to have many birds to spot. The nesting red kites offer an aerial display every break time #BigGardenBirdwatch #OutdoorLearning #NatureMatters #StPs
