As part of our English unit of work on writing instructions, Year 1 and Year 2 worked together to bake a loaf of bread as a class. The children followed each step of the recipe carefully—measuring, mixing, kneading, and watching the dough rise. After the bread was baked in the oven the children got to sample the bread which everyone enjoyed, with many asking for second helpings!

This practical activity helped the children understand how important clear instructions are, and they will now use this shared experience to inspire their own writing.

Well done to all our brilliant young bakers!

Attendance Figures week commencing 02.03.2026:

The letter below has been sent home with all the children, we’d really appreciate it if you could encourage your child to complete and return it so it can be part of our library display.

Inside this heart, draw or write all the things you love to read about. It could be characters, types of books, or even a picture of you reading. Colour it carefully and put your name on it before returning it to school next week. It would be very helpful if you could cut it out too.

Thank you

We have been asked to share these with our parents and carers.

I SingPop-up service this Sunday at 10 in the church hall, drop your children off, join us for coffee after 11, then a short service by the children in church at 11.20.

Sunday 15th March

This week, we held our termly Eucharist Service.  It was lovely to welcome visitors from the church and school communities to join us for the service and share communion, together, for those that wished to. Father Chris led us through a service that made us consider The Lord’s Prayer.  This is a prayer that we say regularly in school, and refer to as our Family Prayer.  Father Chris explained that it is called the Family Prayer as it brings all those of Christian faith together, in the unity of one prayer.  We considered what each part of the prayer means and what we are asking for when we say this prayer.  The children listened and engaged very well and as with all of Father Chris’s assemblies, very much enjoyed the musical responses and joining in with familiar and new hymns.
