  • Writing Day

    Published 19/07/24

    I am sure children have told you all about the case of Miya’s missing crate! Our school government put together a wonderful writing event for children in Years 3, 4 and 5 on Tuesday. It had everything – mystery, suspense, evidence (including some questionable ‘CCTV’) and teamwork but most of all, it resulted in some fantastic writing! Each class had a ‘winner’ and they were given the opportunity to read their piece of work over a virtual whole school assembly. A big congratulations to the class winners and the school government. Mystery solved!

  • The bake sale raised over £200 for Cancer Research UK and The Garden House Hospice!

    Published 28/03/24

    The school government were treated to a visit from a representative of Letchworth Garden House Hospice on Tuesday afternoon in recognition of their great work raising money for both this charity and 

    Cancer Research with the bake sales last half term so well supported by our school community. Each member received a certificate to acknowledge their contribution and all were excited to see a huge cheque in person. Actually, only Mrs Fordham was excited about this - one of the children commented they had never seen a cheque in person nevermind a huge one - sign of the times and Mrs Fordham's age perhaps! 

     

    Our School Government wrote a letter to Cancer Research to tell them about their fundraising!
