Congratulations to Jessica, Kaveh and Ivy who have been selected to be part of Pershore Plum Festival this year. We look forward to seeing them at the various events during the summer and hope they have a wonderful experience.
This afternoon, we were entertained during assembly by the children who have been having music lessons with Mrs Fox this year. This was a wonderful opportunity for the children to showcase their talents and how much they had learnt. If your child is in Year 4, 5 or 6 and is interested in learning to play a musical instrument, please contact the school office for more information.
Well done to all the children who took part in Sports Day last week. There was a great atmosphere of both competitiveness and team spirit as the house teams competed against each other. It was fantastic to see so many smiles as well as the children's determination to try their best! Thank you to all the friends and families who came to support the children and enjoy a picnic with us afterwards. A big "thank you" also to the PTA for organising the Summer Fayre and the always popular bouncy slide!
Monday 29 June was our whole school transition day. While Year 4 were able to spend time with Miss Oakley during their Residential Trip, the rest of the school enjoyed a variety of activities with their new class teacher ready for September. We were also delighted to welcome our new Reception intake during the morning; they were able to familiarise themselves with their new classroom and teachers.
On Monday, a very excited Year 4 class left for their overnight residential trip to Croft Farm, near Tewkesbury. For some, this was their first experience of staying away from home and provided a wonderful opportunity for the children to build resilience, deepen friendships, try new activities in a supportive environment and create special memories. Thank you to the staff who made this trip possible.
On Tuesday afternoon, our Reception and Year 1 classes travelled to The Swan Theatre in Worcester to watch the performance of Zog – Live on Stage! It was very exciting, especially as some of us had never been to the theatre before! The show was amazing, and we enjoyed the songs and the puppets. Thank you to our parent helpers for coming with us.
Congratulations to all those who supported the school at Pershore Carnival on Saturday; we were delighted to win the award for Best Float! A big thank you to the Friends and all the parents and staff who worked so hard to decorate the float and to the children who took part.
The weather next week is predicted to be hot! Please ensure your child brings a sunhat and water bottle to school and has sun cream applied. Children may wear non-uniform clothes to help keep them cool - no football kits or open-toe shoes please!
Our Year 6 class enjoyed a day on the river today as they took part in a bellboating session to practice for the regatta next week! This was a great opportunity for the children to develop their team-building and communication skills as well as build self-confidence. The children are looking forward to taking part in the Pershore Schools Bellboating Regatta next week.
To support Drowning Prevention Week, we were very pleased to welcome Teresa and Ellie from the Royal Lifesaving Society yesterday for an assembly with all the children. The children learnt a lot about the importance of staying safe around water, especially the Water Safety Code:
On Friday, pupils in Year 1 and Year 3 enjoyed a fantastic trip to the Three Counties Show. They saw a variety of pigs, cattle and sheep, and then visited Atwell’s Farm Park stand, where they listened to a talk all about bugs. To end their visit, they watched a sheep shearing contest. Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who supported the children on this visit.
Last week, Year 2 went on a fantastic class trip to Warwick Castle, which helped to support the children's learning about castles and the history of figures such as William the Conqueror. Throughout the day, the children visited the Great Hall, climbed the walls of the tower and took in the views, and experienced what it would have been like to live in a castle. To finish, the children watched a brilliant bird show. Thank you to our parent helpers who supported us on this trip. The children had a fantastic day!
