End of term

Thursday 20th March is the end of the Spring term. As we look forward to a well earned break we say goodbye to Mrs Fall who has been teaching French for the last two years. Tuesday saw a very successful family Easter bingo evening in the school hall. The hall was packed and everyone enjoyed a great evening. The term finishes with our customary Easter service, held in St James' church at 9.30 am.

Sporting Success

We have just presented awards to the Cross Country teams who won their events at the recent Elleray Cross Country Competition. We won the boys and girls under 11 races for teams. The younger children also did very well and look good prospects for the future.

World War II

Today as part of our project work on World War II, Mr Castlings has been in to talk to the KS2 children. During the war he was evacuated to Staveley as a child. Many years later he returned to make his home here as an adult. He shared his memories and helped the children to understand what is was like to be an evacuee.

Log book goes electronic

Today we decided to move with the times and transfer our school log book to a blog.
