It has been an absolute joy to welcome our pupils back into school today! We are delighted to return to face-to-face teaching and learning. The children have been fantastic! It has also been the first day of lateral flow testing for our Senior pupils who have been brilliant and thank you to the staff who ensured it all went smoothly.

As part of wellbeing week, Year 1 created some mindfulness mandalas inspired by the artist Paula Brett. So beautiful and all so different, well done Year 1. #childrensmentalhealthweek

For their Art activity this week Year 2 learnt about the famous artist Van Gogh. Mrs Bentley then tasked them with recreating their own Van Gogh Starry Night scenes whilst listening to Starry Night inspired music. Well done Year 2 they look fantastic!

Year 6 looked at ‘Duria Antiquior’, An Ancient Dorsetshire (1874) by Henry De La Beche during their art lesson this week. They were asked to produce their own Ancient Jurassic Environment picture in a similar style to the original artwork. Great work Year 6.
