A brilliant win in the netball tournament tonight! Thanks for @BaildonCE for organising. #teamHC Look forward to the next competition!

Many thanks to the parents who have recently bought books from our wish list. They are arriving in school and the children are excited. A year 6 boy hadn't read one book from his series and it arrived from the wish list! He was full of thanks. He can now complete the series.👌📚

Exciting times! Did you know you can apply for a Blue Peter badge for reading? Apply here. https://t.co/BEK8nyP5yj

Tell them about a book you have read. Maybe you liked the characters, or perhaps you enjoyed going on exciting adventures in faraway places. #readingrocks 📚

If they love books then they will love the Blue Peter Book Club! 📚

Great news. We’ve been awarded the Gold Mark for sporting provision in 2022/23! Thanks to all parents and children involved.

Wow! A huge thank you to the parents and the PTA who have bought ALL these books that the children requested on their class wish lists. You are all so generous. We can't thank you enough. The wish lists will continue next year! #readingrocks 📚

There was some serious den building going on at Forest School this afternoon. Two rival groups trying to outdo the other. One even had sentries on duty! Great teamwork and imagination!

[Hoyle Court Primary School @HoyleCourt]

Lovely to see the library busy after school again today. Reading for pleasure is so important. #readingrocks 📚

Miss Lockwood’s class were using sticks to make models of the human skeleton at Forest School this afternoon. Did you know that we have 27 bones in each hand?

Willow class played a fun game of Noughts and Crosses during P.E today! 🤩🏆 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ #PESports #WillowClass #FunPESession

Seedlings class were out at Forest School (or should I say Hoyle Court Primary Mission Control 🚀) this morning to witness the launch of our latest space rocket. Once the rocket fuel tanks were connected to the main body, there was no stopping it! We had a blast!

[Hoyle Court Primary School @HoyleCourt]

Mr Coulson’s and Mr Greatham’s classes were out at Forest School this afternoon, learning some facts about bones in the human skeleton. They then produced their own skeletons in teams, using sticks they gathered in the woods.

Miss White’s class were doing a bit of Hapa Zome at Forest School this afternoon. This activity allows children to share ideas and inspiration, as well as being a great way to express their own ideas to create art, using natural resources. The results were beautiful! Well done!

[Hoyle Court Primary School @HoyleCourt]

A super performance from all. Nice to be at the top! Well done all boys who played today!

Sycamore class were at Forest School this afternoon learning about worms. They have 5 hearts and there are no male or female worms, so all worms lay eggs. Charles Darwin said that worms are the most important creatures on earth. Giant Gippsland worms can grow over 3 metres long!

Birch class did some code-breaking at Forest School, having learnt about the Enigma code and the mistake which the Axis made during WW2. Polish and French spies/personnel helped Alan Turing, a British mathematician, to crack the code, and so save millions of further deaths.
