• Pershore Carnival!

  Wed 29 May 2013
  The sun shone as we took part in Pershore Carnival on Bank Holiday Monday! This year's theme was "Pershore Through the Ages" and our fantastic float represented Pershore Abbey with some children, parents and Mrs Bitcon dressing up as monks and others as choir members!  Many thanks to the Friends for organising this event and to everyone who put so much effort into getting everything ready; the result really was amazing! 

• Year 1's Garden Centre

  Fri 24 May 2013

  Following their recent visit to St Peters Garden Centre, the children in Year 1 have worked really hard, and with great enthusiasm, to create their own Garden Centre.  Parents and carers were invited into school today to buy plants and cakes, all served by the children!  Thank you to everyone who attended and made this such a special event for the class.

• Bellboating - Year 3

  Fri 24 May 2013
  On Monday this week Year 3 went Bellboating on the River Avon in Pershore.  Bellboats are totally unique in their design which makes them extremely stable.  Its purpose is to remove the fear of taking part in water sport and to help with team work and co-operation.  The weather was kind to us and all the children had a great afternoon!

• Alien Party

  Thu 23 May 2013
  The children in Reception were very excited to hold their own Alien Party where they sang songs, played party games and ate lots of Alien jelly!  Thank you to all the parents who attended and made the party so special.

• Rounders

  Thu 23 May 2013
  On Tuesday afternoon Year 4 hosted a Rounders Tournament attended by Abbey Park First and Holy Redeemer Primary.  Holy Redeemer stole the show with an outstanding performance all round; well done to them!  Meanwhile, Cherry Orchard were neck and neck with Abbey Park and eventually came third by just half a rounder.  It was a lovely opportunity to meet new friends and our sportsmanship made the school proud.

• Bellboating

  Thu 23 May 2013
  Year 4 have had an action packed week this week, starting with Bellboating on Monday.  Everyone enjoyed the trip, including some children who well and truly conquered their fears!  It was a great team building activity and we are looking forward to the next session on 28 June.  With all this practice, we hope to have a strong team for the Regatta!

• Space Centre Trip

  Mon 20 May 2013
  On Tuesday 7 May, Year 3 and 4 went to the Space Centre in Leicester.  They took part in a rocket workshop where they made and launched their own rockets.  Then they spent the rest of the day looking around the many interactive exhibits; one of the most popular was the landing of a chair onto a given spot!

  

• Music Extravaganza!

  Fri 17 May 2013
  Today our Year 4 children took part in a Music Extravaganza at Number 8 in Pershore together with other local schools.  Our children performed 2 songs  - A Whole New World and A Pot of Gold and played "Stripy Cat" on flutes before joining in with all the schools to sing "Muscles and Bones"!    Two of our school Governors came along to watch and thoroughly enjoyed the concert and were very impressed by the standard of performances.  Congratulations and well done to all the pupils who took part!
