🌟 2024/2025 = A Fantastic Year for Year 5 and 6! 🌟

As we look back over the last academic year for 24/25, it’s clear that it has been a truly fantastic time for our Year 5 and 6 students.

From exciting class projects and creative art work to memorable trips and sporting events, the children have embraced every opportunity with enthusiasm and determination. Highlights of the year included our amazing production of School of Pop, where pupils wowed us all with their singing, acting and teamwork on stage.

The students have shown wonderful progress in their learning, supported each other as friends and classmates, and grown in confidence and independence. It’s been a joy to watch them challenge themselves, celebrate their successes, and make so many happy memories together.

We are incredibly proud of everything Year 5 and 6 have achieved this year, and we can’t wait to see what they do next!

🎤 Year 5/6 Shine in Spectacular Performance of School of Pop 🎶

This year, our talented Year 5/6 pupils took to the stage to perform their eagerly awaited production of School of Pop — and what a show it was!

The hall was filled with excitement as the students brought the story to life through energetic acting, lively choreography, and impressive singing. The children’s hard work during rehearsals paid off, as every song was performed with confidence and enthusiasm, earning warm applause from the audience.

The production’s success was also thanks to the fantastic technical team. Lighting effects helped create just the right atmosphere for each scene, from vibrant concert moments to quieter dramatic parts. The sound was clear and balanced, ensuring that every line and lyric reached the back of the hall.

Parents, carers, and staff all agreed that the show was a triumph. One audience member commented, “It was wonderful to see the children enjoying themselves so much on stage. Their singing and energy were amazing!”

Congratulations to all of our Year 5/6 pupils, as well as Year 3/4 pupils and staff who supported them behind the scenes. School of Pop was a brilliant celebration of creativity, teamwork, and talent — and one we won’t forget!

🏙️ An Unforgettable Year 5 and 6 Residential to London! 🌟

Our Year 5 and 6 residential trip to London was truly fantastic and became one of the most memorable highlights of the year.

During our visit, the children enjoyed an incredible range of activities: we watched the spectacular West End musical Wicked, took in stunning views from the top of the London Eye, explored the fascinating exhibits at the Natural History Museum, and even had a scenic boat trip along the River Thames. To top it all off, we shared a delicious dinner together at the famous Hard Rock Cafe, making for a truly special evening.

Beyond the amazing sights, the trip was a wonderful opportunity for pupils to grow in independence, strengthen friendships, and support one another. Their enthusiasm, curiosity, and excellent behaviour throughout the trip made everyone very proud.

It was a joy to see the children’s excitement as they discovered new places and made unforgettable memories together — an experience we’re sure they’ll treasure for years to come!

🌟 Celebrating Our Amazing Year 6s! 🌟

We are incredibly proud of our fantastic Year 6 pupils for the way they approached their SATs this year.

They worked so hard in the lead-up to the tests, showing real determination, resilience, and a positive attitude every step of the way. On the day, they truly smashed their SATs, tackling each paper with confidence and giving their very best effort.

Beyond the scores and results, what really stands out is their teamwork, encouragement of each other, and the mature, calm way they handled the challenge. They have set a wonderful example for younger pupils and shown just how much they’ve grown this year.

Well done, Year 6 — we couldn’t be prouder of everything you’ve achieved!
