They took part in a chemistry workshop - Changing Materials - and also had the opportunity to explore the different exhibitions. Please have a look at their Class Page on our website to see more photos of the children and the activities.
It was lovely to see so many parents and families at Pershore Abbey yesterday as the children performed the songs they had learned with iSingPop. The children had enjoyed rehearsing the songs and were excited to be able to perform in front of their families. Thank you for all your lovely comments after the performance.
Thank you all for supporting the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal this year - we raised £264.16!
Yesterday afternoon, our Reception Class enjoyed a Christmas-themed visit to Pershore Library. They took part in a Christmas craft activity and enjoyed a Christmas story. Thank you for inviting us - the children had a lovely time!
This afternoon the children were given the opportunity to watch England's first World Cup match in Qatar against Iran. The children all loved this experience and what a great atmosphere it was when England scored! The final score was 6-2.

This morning children from Y3, 4, 5 and 6 went to Inkberrow's football ground to take part in an AAT cross country event with children from Norton and Inkberrow Primary Schools. It was very muddy and very slippery but all the children finished their event. The Y3/4 race was 1.3 km long and the Y5/6 race was 2.3 km long. We tried our best but placed 3rd overall. A big well done goes out to Parker in Y3 for coming 6th overall in the Y3 boys event and Buddy for coming in the top 10, Ruby in Y3 for coming 3rd in the girls event, Louie and Oliver T for coming 7th and 8th in the Y4 event, Robyn in Y4 for coming 3rd, and Liberty finishing in the top ten, Ella and Kayne for finishing in the top ten in Y5, Harry S for coming 2nd overall in his event along with Ollie L and Cameron finishing in the top 10, Danielle for coming 6th, and Poppy and Brooklyn finishing in the top ten too! Well done we are really proud of you all for running on such a wet, muddy and slippery course!
What an exciting week for Year 4! On Monday and Tuesday pupils took part in a residential trip to Boundless Outdoors, Malvern together with pupils from Inkberrow and Norton-juxta-Kempsey Primary Schools. The children took part in lots of different activities and were brilliant at trying new activities and doing their best!
A big "thank you" to Ms Waterland, Ms Sanchez and Miss Lambert for accompanying the children on this trip.
This morning, the whole school came together to observe a two-minute silence as part of our Remembrance events honouring those who lost their lives in conflict.
Yesterday, after school, Y6 boys and Amelia played in an AAT football tournament at PHS against Inkberrow and Norton. We won the first match 1-0, we drew our second match, won our third match 2-0 and won our final match 3-0. We finished the tournament with 18 out of a possible 20 points and, after a bit of confusion, were announced as the winners! We would like to thank all of the parents for watching, along with some of our ex-pupils too.
