• Tim the Ranger - School Grounds Development

  Tue 26 Feb 2019 Mrs Ratley

  Tim the Ranger has been busy over the last few months helping to develop our school grounds so that the children can utilise the spaces around the school more and making the school grounds tidier and more attractive places for children to work and play.

   

  He has done two main areas of work so far:

   

  Firstly, developing a garden area outside Badger classroom, which includes seating and will be planted up with flowers and shrubs later on in the spring term.  It is certainly a lot tidier and attractive than the old patch of mud and is proving a popular playtime area to sit quietly, write, draw and play.

   

  The second area that has been developed is the Pebble Pond area.  Tim has re-lined the pond as well as re-positioning some of the plants and creating some log piles and places for frogs, toads and newts to shelter around the pond.  He has created a new second entrance to Pebble Pond and a pathway, which will eventually lead to a new seating area which can be used for lessons based around the pond and in the conservation area.

   

  We are hoping that Tim can help us to develop some of the other spaces around the school grounds to make them more attractive places for the children to use and enjoy.

  

• Past Pupils perform in Mary Poppins Jr

  Thu 14 Feb 2019 Mrs Ratley
  It is always lovely to see and hear about the achievements of our past pupils.  This week Hare Class (year 5) had the treat of going to watch the dress rehearsal for Thurston Community College's performance of Mary Poppins Jr. (Click here to read an East Anglian Daily Times article).  They had a fantastic time spotting some of our past pupils and thoroughly enjoyed the show.  Our current year 5 pupils have a real flair for drama and performance this year (amongst their many other talents) and having the opportunity for them to see past pupils performing on a bigger stage and to a wider audience helps those with the ambition to follow in their footsteps.
