🌟🏆 GOOD BEHAVIOUR DESERVES A LITTLE EXTRA GLOW! 🏆🌟
💚💛💙 GLOW IN THE DARK DODGEBALL! 💙💛💚
What an absolutely brilliant time we had enjoying our Glow in the Dark Dodgeball session as our special half-termly behaviour reward! 🤩🎉
The children had an AMAZING time dodging, ducking, diving and laughing their way through a fantastic, action-packed session! 🏐✨ There was plenty of excitement, teamwork, energy and, of course, lots of smiling faces! 😁🙌
At our school, we believe that kindness, respect, positive attitudes and making good choices deserve to be recognised and celebrated. ❤️
Throughout each half term, our children are encouraged to show these qualities every single day, and it's wonderful to be able to reward those who consistently demonstrate our school values and set such a fantastic example to others. 🌟👏
These special treats are a lovely way of reminding our children that their everyday efforts, positive choices and exemplary behaviour really do matter! 🥰🏆
A HUGE THANK YOU to #ProgressiveSports for providing such a fun and memorable experience. The children absolutely loved it! 💚✨
Keep shining, keep making those brilliant choices and keep being the very best you can be! 🌟❤️

🤠🐴🌵 **AUTUMN HOLIDAY CLUB – WILD WEST ADVENTURE WEEK!** 🌵🐴🤠
**YEEEEHAW! What a rootin’ tootin’ week we’ve had!** 🤠🎉
We kicked off our Wild West adventure by making our very own hobby horses, followed by some energetic hobby horse racing 🐎💨 and showing off our fantastic lassoing skills! 🤠
🐴 **Tuesday brought a VERY special visitor… Mary the Wild West Pony!** 🐴❤️
The children absolutely loved meeting Mary, asking lots of questions, brushing her and, of course, treating her to some tasty Polos! 🥰 A HUGE thank you to Bridie Briers’ mum for bringing Mary along and making our day extra special! ❤️
🎨 **Our little cowboys and cowgirls have been busy crafting all week!** We made paper plate horses, treasure chests, designed our own cowboy boots and created some fabulous sheriff badges! ⭐🤠
We got our hands messy with clay creations, made some delicious pony pancake faces 🥞🐴 and decorated biscuits… which, of course, just HAD to be eaten! 🍪😋
💃🤠 **LINE DANCING WAS A BIG HIT!** 🤠💃
Well, what can we say?! The children absolutely blew us away with their patience, concentration, enthusiasm and brilliant dance moves! We definitely have a few budding country dancers amongst us! 🎶👢👏
🌦️ We even managed, in between the showers, to squeeze in a trip to the Rez to feed the ever-hungry ducks 🦆 and a couple of visits to the park, which the children always love! 🛝❤️
🎉🌵 **We finished the week in TRUE WILD WEST STYLE with our DRESS-UP & RODEO PARTY DAY!** 🌵🎉
There was more line dancing, lots of music, games, yummy party food and, most importantly, PLENTY of laughter! 🤠🐎🎶🥳
By the end of it all, **Mrs Fenwick and Mrs Schofield were very tired!** 😂😴 Hopefully the children were too!
But WOW… **WHAT A WEEK!** ❤️
As always, the children gave it their all, threw themselves into every activity and were an absolute pleasure to have. 🥰 Their smiles, laughter and enthusiasm make every bit of hard work worthwhile! ❤️
A **HUGE THANK YOU** once again to all our wonderful parents and carers for your continued support. It really does mean so much to us! 🫶❤️
