An exciting first day back!

Welcome back, everyone. We have had very busy first day back, with lots going on. It was lovely to welcome our new starters, together with children in other year groups who have joined us too. Here are a few photos of what school looks like at the moment. All ready for us to learn! 

At our staff meeting yesterday, we decided that a different member of staff would update this newsfeed every week, so watch out for news from around school as the year progresses!

Rocket Fund

As you may know, we are busy raising funds for a set of Chromebooks to further enhance the learning in Willow Class. These will replace the laptops which are sadly on their last legs and will also be used by Rowan Class. The Friends of Naburn have already helped us and the Government has given us some money to spend on ‘little extras’ which we can use too! So we are now having one final push.

We set up a Rocket Fund project with the hope of raising enough funds for the trolley, but amazingly we have reached our target in just one day! Wow!

We have now extended the project to include 10 chromebooks too. 

Do have a look and donate if you can. You can pledge as little as £1 and every donation will help us reach our goal. Our next dream is to build up the set of ipads in Rowan Class to a full class set, so any money raised will mean this dream can be realised even faster, so benefitting our children even more quickly.

Robinwood – a trip of a lifetime

  Last week, Year 5/6 visited Robinwood and we all made some wonderful memories that will never be forgotten.   We got up to many, many new and incredible activities of a lifetime. We are all so lucky to have these…

Amazing Computer Games in Willow Class

Today we designed and built 3D maze games with a World Book Day theme.  Can you guess which book Amelia used as her inspiration?
