The staff had their own sports day after school on Monday. It was great fun and sometimes very wet!
Thank you to Mr Taylor and Mr Stoneham for organising.

Spruces had great fun cooking the spring rolls that they designed today. Each class in the school has been assigned an Olympic team (ours is China). We have been finding out about the country and in D & T we designed a dish from China we would like to make. We all voted and spring rolls came out the top. We used lots of different vegetables and sauces and cooked them in an air fryer - they were delicious!
The wholes school took part in The Big Sing on Friday 21st June 2024 - we sang "Lean on me" together with other schools at 2.30pm. Here are some photos. Mr Huxter kindly took some videos.

All the children in KS2 took part in a TTRS arena battle in their class to find the fastest person. These children then battled against the other winners from their year group in front of all of KS2 and year 2 in the afternoon. Children in years 2 - 6 also took part in a Battle of the Bands to see which class could collect the most TTRS points in the day.
