Please have a look at the lovely events our children have taken part in this year.
This week, our Eco Council and Eco Club met with Alex from Devon Waste Education Programme to audit our school waste. They will be creating an action plan that will help us to be more echo friendly. Alex then worked with Year 1 and Year 2, building on their work on materials by asking children to explore the properties of materials before deciding whether they should be put in the bin, recycled or reused.

Our new rockery
This week saw the start of our Mini Police programme.
Year 5 spent a lovely morning in the Community Orchard on Tuesday helping to pick apples for apple pressing. We found out about the different types of apples for eating or making cider. Back at school we tasted all the different varieties. The desert apples were delicious but the cider apples were very sour!
Our youngest children have had a lovely time enjoying the mud kitchen. We are all amazed at how well they have coped with their first half term of school and can’t wait to see how well they progress in the coming months.
Reception children have been using the bow saw and brace and bit drill to make badges. They have been using scissors to cut the wool and have been introduced to the art of tying knots. It is great to wear a badge that you have made yourself!
Dogs Trust made a return visit to our school this week to meet our Year 3, KS1 and Reception children. They learnt how to behave around dogs plus the best ways to look after them. The Dog’s Trust were once again impressed with the children’s “great thinking skills, listening and respect.
