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.

A win, deserved! Dodgeballs falling like rain

Year 5 dodging like a man insane

No one stood still, but what a thrill!

Goodness Gracious, Great Balls of Dodge!

The Year 5 House Dodgeball Competition was a fantastic evening of sport, teamwork and determination as Hulk House, Spider House, Bat House and Super House battled it out for the title of House Dodgeball Champions.

From the very first game, every house played exceptionally well and showed a great attitude throughout the competition. The matches were filled with exciting dodges, accurate throws and impressive catches, keeping players and spectators entertained all night.

One of the most pleasing aspects of the event was the honesty and sportsmanship shown by all participants. Players were quick to admit when they had been hit or caught, helping to ensure that every match was played fairly. Alongside this honesty, pupils demonstrated excellent perseverance, continuing to work hard and encourage their teammates even when matches became challenging.

After a thrilling finale, Spider House emerged as the champions, securing a well-deserved victory thanks to their teamwork, perseverance and outstanding performances throughout the competition.

Most importantly, all participants enjoyed the evening and represented their houses with pride. The event was a wonderful celebration of sport, honesty and teamwork, and everyone should be proud of the effort they put in.

Congratulations to Spider House on their victory, and well done to all four houses for making the Year 5 Dodgeball Competition such a memorable and enjoyable event! 🏆🏐🕷️🎉
