ROALD DAHL DAY
We had a fantastic day here at school with a whole host of wonderful Roald Dahl book characters taking over our classrooms. The children enjoyed some book-related activities and lots of stories and Revolting Rhymes!
TOYS FROM THE PAST
Year 1 went on an adventure to Torquay Museum. Whilst there, they took part in a Toys from the Past workshop to enhance their learning in their topic ‘Toys Through Time’. They were shown lots of different toys from various time periods and even made their own thaumatrope and cup and ball game. They also…
AUTUMNAL OUTDOOR LEARNING
We’ve all enjoyed getting back to school and doing some outdoor learning in the lovely autumn weather. All classes, from nursery to year 6, have had lots of fun exploring, building dens, hunting for invertebrates, cooking in the bark kitchen, working together to build a dome, sketching and much more. We have all shown our…
Roald Dahl Day
Our school was over-run by Matildas, BFG’s, Wonkas, Fantastic Mr Foxes, Oompa Loompas and so many other wonderful characters! We had a phizz-whizzing, swashboggling day in aid of Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity.
CONSTRUCTION CLUB
Every Friday throughout May, children in KS1 and Early Years were invited to release their creativity in Construction Club. We had lots of fun building together, completing challenges and sharing our end designs.

World Book Day 2023
School was once again filled with a huge variety of book characters to celebrate World Book Day 2023. We enjoyed a Drop Everything and Read (DEAR), a Book in a Jar competition, dress up and all the children looked at some of the poetry of Joseph Coelho and responded to it in their own ways.
Year 1 and 2 Visit the Zoo
As part of their topic, ‘Paws, Claws and Tails’, year 1 and 2 visited Paignton Zoo. They took part in a workshop looking at the skeletons of different animals and then spent time spotting all the animals in the zoo itself.
Year 1’s Misty Morning
Year 1 had a beautiful, misty autumn morning for Outdoor Learning. We collected leaves and acorns for a science research project. The damp air left droplets on all of the spiders’ webs – they looked beautiful!

This is an annual event which raises money for Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity while enjoying the magic of his books.
