  • Leavers Service

    Thu 21 Jul 2016
    There were tears and smiles this afternoon as we said goodbye to our Year 4 class and wished them all the best for the future as they move on to their chosen Middle Schools.  The children read out their memories of their time at Cherry Orchard and the friends they had made and then sang our emotional leavers song!   At the end of the service, each of the children released a balloon to which they had attached their dreams and hopes for the future.  Good luck Year 4 - shine like the stars that you are!
  • School Disco

    Thu 21 Jul 2016
    Thank you to the Friends for organising the Leavers Disco last night.  On one of the warmest evenings of the year so far the children still managed to dance along to the latest songs before enjoying a well-deserved ice-cream from our new ice-cream stall!
  • Year 4 Leavers Party

    Thu 21 Jul 2016
    They have all grown up so fast!  After school yesterday our Year 4 class, dressed in their party clothes and accompanied by parents and staff, were treated to a special meal of chilli, chips and pizza at Whistlers in Pershore.  The room had been specially decorated with balloons and each of the children and staff also received a gift box containing chocolates!  Everyone then returned to school to join the rest of the pupils at the disco.  Good luck at Middle School Year 4 - we are very proud of you all.
  • Teddy Bears Picnic

    Thu 21 Jul 2016
    An excited Reception Class enjoyed a Teddy Bear's Picnic yesterday at Pershore High School together with children from other local First Schools.  This event was organised by pupils from the Sixth Form who provided a range of activities for the pupils to take part in including party games, a treasure hunt, face painting, ball games and a picnic.  All the children had a lovely time - a big thank you to the Sixth Formers for inviting us!
  • WaterAid Day

    Tue 19 Jul 2016
    Today all the children took part in WaterAid Day.  The children discovered how many people, including children, in the world's poorest communities do not have access to clean, safe drinking water and sanitation.  The children learned a lot through watching short video clips and also practical activities such carrying water in containers over varying distances to show them the difficulties some people face.  We think we are all very lucky to have clean water available to us all day!
  • Cinderella Rockerfella!

    Thu 14 Jul 2016
    Wow - what an amazing show!  Our whole school production of Cinderella Rockerfella at Number 8, Pershore was a resounding success - Year 4 played their lead roles with great confidence for such a young age and were very well supported by all the other classes who each performed a dance during the show.  The audience were fabulous and we have received some lovely comments from parents about the children's performance.  A big thank you to all the children and staff for their hard work!
