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.
MEET THE LIFEGUARDS
Today, we were visited by two local RNLI lifeguards who led an assembly for all our key stage 2 children all about staying safe at the beach. They explained what the different flags that are displayed at the beach mean, what rip currents are and what to do if you get caught in one, how…
STUNNING SUNSETS
As part of our TED day, we spent some time using the oil pastels to create some artwork. The children smudged and combined colours to give a sunset impression, which provided a stunning backdrop to their Anglo-Saxon boat. The children were really resilient with their artwork and managed to produce some stunning pieces.
Teignmouth Primary Rocks!
For NSPCC Number Day, Key Stage 2 dressed up as rock stars and took part in a times tables rock battle against all the other Ivy Education Trust primary schools on Times Tables Rock Stars. Each class experienced some fun maths activities to celebrate maths and numbers whilst raising money for the NSPCC.
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.

Key Stage 2 Christmas Concert
On Monday 12th December, we held our Christmas concert with all the children in years 3 to 6 at the Pavilions in Teignmouth. The children sang, read poems and played instruments. It was a truly magical performance which started our festivities leading up to Christmas beautifully. Well done Key Stage 2!
The Solar Airship
Year 4 had the perfect morning for flying the solar airship. It needs to be sunny and still – it doesn’t matter if it’s chilly. The black material of the airship is very thin. It needs to be filled with air (by running it up and down the field with one end open) first. Then,…
Year 4 Geography and History Field Trip
As part of their topic ‘Through the Ages’, year 4 went on a field trip to Grimspound on Dartmoor where there are the remains of a Bronze Age settlement. The children had to use the evidence around them to decide why the Bronze Age settlers chose to build their homes on this site and they…
