• Cross Country Training

  Sat 29 Oct 2011
  This is our cross country running team at the start of a three mile training run around the Tamar Lakes last Friday.
  We're going to be training a lot more seriously this year and this is going to involve going out each week to run in places which are much more demanding than our school grounds.
  If only the adults were as fit as the children !!!

• Bikeability

  Sat 15 Oct 2011
  The children in Year Six are spending the next two weeks taking part in Bikeability Training which involves learning to be safe on the roads.
  This is a vitally important life skill and it's great that we are able to take part each year.
  The children practice their skills on the playground before heading off on to the roads.

  

• Tudor Cookery

  Fri 14 Oct 2011
  We took advantage of the great weather last week to go outside and build some fires so that we could cook Pottage.
  Pottage is a vegetable stew which is thickened with oats. It was the staple diet for poor people in the country side for a thousand years.
  Our Pottage was a bit bland but we agreed that we could probably survive on it quite well if we had to !!!
