The end of the Year already, It hardly seems five minutes since we started back in September. Looking back we are really proud of what the children have achieved this year. Looking at the progress each year group has made in english and maths has shown that the creative curriculum we started this year is starting to have an impact. We are planning to extend it further again next year with many exciting activities planned. The new reception unit has now been running for a year

and the learning that the chil-dren have accessed through the different areas has been fantastic, if a little messy! Thank you all for the support that you have given the school and the children over the year. We hope that it continues and we have plans in place to further increase parental involvement and information sharing next year. Please remember the school website as it is often the quickest and most effec-tive way of keeping you up to date as well as the texting service. We hope you have

a good summer and look forward to another successful year in September.

SATs Week Our Year 6 children have

again shown how brilliant

they are by producing some

excellent results in their

SATs tests this year. Every

child in Year 6 worked as

hard as they possibly could

and these are a true reflec-

tion of the effort they put in.

We can all be truly proud of

them.

Maths

Level 4+ 85% Level 5 41%

Reading

Level 4+ 88% Level 5 56%

Writing

Level 4+ 85% Level 5 39%

The values and aims of our school can be

seen on our website. However we felt we

needed something to sum up what they are

so that they are clear to everyone. We have

come up with our values wheel (on the right)

which you will also see around the school

entrances. We hope that this will make it

obvious and remind us all of what we are

trying to achieve in school. Let us know

what you think.
