 We are pleased to share that pupils have now taken part in the first session of our Heart and Circulatory System programme. The session at U7 academy involved practical, age-appropriate physical activities and interactive learning to help pupils explore how the heart and circulatory system work during exercise. The programme is being delivered by Dr Matthew Handford BSc MSc PhD from U7 Academy & Youth, who guided pupils through engaging activities designed to build their understanding of how the human body responds to physical activity.

Year 6 Climbing, Crate Stacking and High Beams Some Year 6 children had the chance to climb the high beams and work on collaboration and teamwork with crate stacking at River Dart Country Park. The children loved it and it was great using the school minibus!

Macmillan Coffee Morning

The Year 6 hosted a 'Macmillan Coffee Morning', raising money for the cancer support, which help raise vital funds to support almost 3.5 million people in the UK living with cancer, from the moment they are diagnosed, throughout treatment and beyond. The Year 6 children were fantastic hosts and it was so lovely to see so many parents, family and members of our school community. Some children also played their instruments amazingly well. We are delighted to announce that we raised a total of £284.32 for this amazing charity.
