Our final F2 Stay and Play session of the year was a wonderful way to celebrate all of the children's hard work and learning. The children loved exploring our Hungry Caterpillar activities with their grown-ups and were excited to share their classroom experiences. They also enjoyed spending time together exploring the outdoors carrying out activities such as playing in the sand pit, riding around on the bikes, going on the climbing frame and cooking up something yummy in the mud kitchen.
Children from Year 5 and 6 attended a tennis event run by the Ashfield School Games. The children were given the opportunity to take part in different batting and throwing activities and developed their tennis skills.

A group of our pupils proudly represented the school at the Trust Awards event, and what a fantastic occasion it was! Children from Glee Club took to the stage to showcase their wonderful singing, impressing the audience with their confidence and talent. Two pupils also contributed a superb piece of artwork—a creatively designed cube representing Spain—which was admired by all. Well done Teddy and Lexi! Other pupils attended as parliament members and award winners, representing the school with pride and maturity. Every child who took part was a true credit to our school, and it was clear that a great time was had by all.
Year 5 enjoyed a busy and exciting residential, taking part in weaselling, sky ropes, cargo nets and a night walk. Camping in tents during a thunderstorm was certainly a highlight, and the children approached every activity with confidence and determination. The children and staff all had a great time!
Year 5 and 6 children had a fantastic and enjoyable morning at Sutton-in-Ashfield Fire Station on Wednesday! Throughout the morning, the children took part in a variety of exciting and practical workshops, including first aid, online safety, water safety and travel safety.
The sessions were interactive, engaging and full of valuable information, helping the children to learn important life skills and ways to keep themselves and others safe. The children represented the school brilliantly, showing enthusiasm, excellent listening skills and maturity throughout the day.
A huge thank you to all of the staff at the fire station for providing such an informative and memorable experience for our pupils!
As part of our partnership with Mansfield Town Community Trust, some children were given tickets to watch MTFC's last game of the season.
These children were nominated by staff for their dedication and hard work in PE lessons, for always trying their best and and their enthusiasm during our recent Blue and Yellow Day.
The children have spoken very highly about the experience and were very lucky to watch a game with 9 goals!
