Today @AmazonUK visited our school to donate all of our children watches- an amazing gift that they were not only excited to receive but have used all day to practise telling the time! Thank you so much for making their day! #christmas#compassion#education#school
We loved having KIT Theatre work in our school last week but we think the children enjoyed it even more. Thank you for making Save Our Stories such a wonderful experience!
The opening of the big book at the end of Save Our Stories is the final thing which changes Agent Grey’s mind and overturns the Story Ban. Here is the book unfurling, filled with 400 stories written by every pupil in the school…
A number of our students have been taking part in the peer to peer mentoring programme, please have a look and join us in celebrating what has been a successful first half term!
Year 6 have written some beautiful letters after meeting @peterbunzl this Wednesday. They loved the opportunity and have expressed their happiness in these lovely letters. Thank you once again for visiting our school.
We were really pleased to welcome @peterbunzl into school yesterday. Peter kindly gave a talk to our year 6 students about his novels, life and inspiration. Following the talk, our students were really excited to have their Moonlocket books signed in our new library!
We are excited to now have 1:1 devices across the Gateway Learning Community for all Year 3 - Year 6 pupils. An exciting opportunity for every pupil to become developed and competent digital citizens.
Walk to School Week
Have a look to see if you could park and stride, hope off two stops early or walk to school within the radius of the bubble

Next week is National Walk To School week.
If your child takes the bus perhaps you could get off 2 stops earlier and walk the rest of the way. The benefits of exercise are immense to both yourself and your child if done on a regular basis.
