Farm trip!

 Hi all,

Yesterday we had our second trip to Maiden Castle Farm! We were blessed with lovely weather and many, many muddy puddles which were great fun to walk through when walking there and back!

At the farm we learnt the names for mummy, daddy and baby animals. See if you can remember some of the names! A mummy pig was the hardest one to remember! We also got to see some chickens and fed them their breakfast. We had the chance to look at the eggs that had been laid by the chickens. We were lucky enough to see a baby chick that had only recently hatched. 

After that we saw lots of different aged cows and got to go into the lambing shed to see the new born baby lambs. There was even the opportunity to stroke one of them. It was an all round lovely morning and our thanks go to the Maiden Castle Farm for having us!

Farm trip tomorrow!

Hello everyone,

Tomorrow we are off to Maiden Castle Farm for the morning! We apologise about the lack of correspondence about the trip! If children could come to school tomorrow morning wearing their school tops/jumpers, and play bottoms/trousers. As well as this, please could we ask for children to wear some wellies, as there has been quite a bit of rain around. Who knows, we may have some puddles to walk through.

If anyone is available to help with this trip tomorrow morning that would be greatly appreciated. Although with such short notice it is understandable if you are busy!

Sports relief walk!

The entire school decided to take the Sports Relief challenge today; the school’s ‘Children’s Voice’ decided that they too would like to face a challenge, walking 1.75 miles from school to Maiden Castle and back. Despite it being rather chilly and a Friday afternoon, the children did this in super spirits and attitude. We were also pleased to see the Yr 4 children clearly supporting their buddies from Reception class to complete the walk.

We would like to thank the super turn out of parents today, enabling the children to complete this walk. The children have raised over £150 today and should be extremely proud of their efforts and awareness of supporting such a worthy charity.

Sport relief tomorrow!

Hi all,

Just a quick reminder that tomorrow is sport relief day and children are welcome to come to school wearing their sports clothes! Please remember that we are going on a sponsered walk to Maiden Castle in the afternoon so please ensure effective footwear.
