• Sports Day

  Mon 10 Jul 2017 ST
  Although a little damp, we managed to have our Sports day today. The children all took part with great sportsmanship and the atmosphere was amazing. Congratulations to Chestnut who took first place! Sorry to all of those mums and dads that wanted to take part in the races this year......keep up the training for next year. 

• Arts Week!

  Fri 07 Jul 2017 ST

  This week we have had a whole school focus on the arts. We have been extremely lucky to have a variety of visitors into the school to share their talents. Below are snippets of work that took place. 

   

  John Waterhouse came in to work with some of the children in Key Stage 2. The aim of this session was to look into 2D and 3D drawings and methods that the children can use to enhance their creations. The children really enjoyed their session and have learnt some valuable skills. 

   

  Mr Rowley worked with each of the classes to look into superhero/comic strip images. He taught the children some hints and tips and all of the children created some amazing images of a Walton superhero!

   

  Miss Clayton from John Taylor came to work with the children in creating canvases linked to our school values of Honesty, Respect and Kindness. The canvas work looked amazing and the children worked extremely hard to ensure they represent our values well. Keep your eyes peeled for the whole school canvas in the hall.

  All of the children took part in Science day today. We had a focus of 'change' throughout the school. We were also lucky enough to have Mr Heath come in and do an experiment with all of the children. Take a look at the Caterpillar class' photos to see how they looked at how a fire can cause change.

  

• Fitness Gym

  We had our new fitness gym fitted today and it looks fantastic! We would like to say a big thank you to the Big Lottery Fund and the PTFA for supporting us in our purchase. Throughout the upcoming weeks the children will be trained on how to use the equipment and we will be running a Fitness Club, led by Key Stage 2, during break and lunchtimes.

  Mrs Claxton, myself and 8 Year 4 children went along to the Grace Dieu Manor School to be a part of the launch for the 'Creating a Forest for Learning Project'.

• Dog's Trust

  Sarah from Dog's Trust is in school today to do various workshops with the children across the school. She started with an assembly explaining what the trust does and how to approach dogs safely.
