  • Year 2 Trip to Cotswold Wildlife Park

    Thu 29 Nov 2018 Mr Bayliss

    On Tuesday Year 2 enjoyed a wet and windy visit to the Cotswold Wildlife Park! The main aim of our visit was to see the giraffes, Wallace and Century; to experience them first hand and to learn a few new facts to support our topic and literacy work in the classroom.  The visit was also a great opportunity to reinforce what we had been learning throughout the Autumn Term in topic, eg what animals eat, food chains, categorising them based on common features etc. Year 2 had a fabulous time with a long list of favourites, although I think we were fairly pleased to get back on the warm bus at the end!

     

    Thank you to all the parents who came to help on this trip.

  • Netball Match

    Fri 23 Nov 2018 Malia and Lewis

    After school yesterday a group of our Year 4 children played a netball match at Holy Redeemer Catholic Primary School. This is their report:

    Holy Redeemer were a good team, they played well and the score was 12-3 to Cherry Orchard! Our team work was great; Jack scored 1, Liam H scored 1 and Daisie scored 10! All of the players stayed in the right boxes and places. Cherry Orchard were moving with the ball and Holy Redeemer were good at pivoting with the ball. It was a really good game.

     

    We worked like Shadow [one of our Superpillars] and great teamwork meant we could mark the other players and intercept the ball.

  • Armistice Day Service

    Fri 09 Nov 2018

    Yesterday Year 3 and Year 4 represented the school at the Armistice Day Service at Pershore Abbey together with children from other local schools. They also laid a wreath at Pershore Commemorative Garden just before the service. The children were moved by the experience; here are some of their comments:

     

    "It is important that we remember the people who died in the war".

     

    "I enjoyed reading in front of the mayor at such a special event".

     

    "I think the most important part was the minute silence because that is where you are showing your respect".
