This week, our Year 1's visited Tamworth Castle. We had an amazing fun-filled day, where we got to walk around and experience a real-life castle, meet the Lord and Lady and prepare a feast for them, find the knight's armour, tour the entire surroundings and meet our very new friend - Knight, who even shared lunch with us! The children were an absolute credit to the school and showed impeccable behaviour throughout the day, as well as share knowledge they have learnt over the last half-term. We made lots of lovely memories to end the year on - what a fabulous day!

Each week, during our Friday Achievement assembly, we celebrate our ‘Pupils of the Week’ from each year group. Pupils are recognised for this weekly award for a variety of reasons and are nominated by their class teacher. They may have excelled in a particular subject through the week; may have shown one, or more, of the school values in abundance, or they may have impressed their teacher, or other staff members with a huge amount of effort. Whatever they are nominated for, they are recognised in the whole school achievement assembly, receive a certificate to take home and get to wear one of our prestigious black and gold t-shirts. 
During the assembly, we also celebrate children who have 100% attendance for the week and have been in school every day on time. A lucky dip, of all children who are eligible takes place, and one pupil walks away with £5 to spend on whatever they want, Standards and presentation of a child’s book, chosen at random, are also reviewed and celebrated with the school and the child, whose book has been chosen, has the chance to win a dip out of the basket of goodies, as long as they have used their best handwriting every day, completed their feed forward marking and taken care in the presentation of their date and learning objective. We are extremely proud of all of the efforts of our pupils and the Friday Achievement assembly recognises this pride.

Last night's year 4 dodgeball tournament delivered all the drama, energy, and friendly rivalry students hoped for. Teams from Bat, Super, Spider, and Hulk houses packed into the sports hall yesterday afternoon, each determined to out‑throw, out‑dodge, and out‑last their opponents.
From the opening whistle, the atmosphere was electric. Bat House impressed early with sharp coordination, while Super House earned cheers for their fearless dives and last‑second saves. Hulk House brought sheer power to the court, launching throws that echoed off the walls and sent spectators into roars.
But it was Spider House who stole the show.
Displaying a mix of agility, teamwork, and uncanny timing, Spider House swept through the group stages and secured a place in the final. In a tense showdown against Hulk House, Spider’s players dodged with lightning reflexes and landed decisive hits that turned the tide in their favour. When the final player was eliminated, the hall erupted.
🏆 Spider House were crowned champions and awarded 200 house points!
Teachers praised the sportsmanship shown across all houses, noting that the event highlighted not only athletic skill but also camaraderie and school pride. Students left buzzing, already speculating about next year’s rematch.
