  • Halloween Disco 2012

    Wed 31 Oct 2012
    Our PTA put on a brilliant Halloween Disco on the evening of the last day of this half term.
    As you can see everyone had a "wonderfully horrific" time !!!
  • Harvest 2012

    Tue 30 Oct 2012
    Harvest 2012.
    The whole school went down to the village church for our Harvest Festival.
    We performed songs and dances with a farming theme and it was fantastic that around sixty parents were able to find the time to come and support the children.
    We held a collection for the Air Ambulance and thanks to everyone's generosity we raised an amazing £180.
  • Bencoolen

    Thu 25 Oct 2012
    On Monday 21st October we spent the day in Bude.
    We have been studying the coast in school and one of the things that we have been thinking about is all of the shipwrecks which have taken place on our local shores.
    One of the most famous was the wreck of the Bencoolen 150 years ago this week.
    We spent some time in the Castle Museum and then went down to the harbour, and out onto the breakwater where the wreck took place.
    As you can see in the photo we did some creative writing in our Journals.
    After lunch we went and found the grave of the seamen who died, read a poem called "Sea Tongue" in the church and went to look at the marshes beside Bude Canal.
  • Football v. Appledore

    Wed 24 Oct 2012
    We played our first football fixtures of the year this Wednesday when we took our A and B Teams over to Appledore School.
    We would have had a lot of fun whatever the results, although it was obviously great to get a couple of good wins under our belts. Goals from Josh (four), Adam (two), Danny (two) and Kai ensured the following results.

    Appledore A   2 - 5   Bradworthy A
    Appledore B   0 - 4   Bradworthy B
  • Class 3 - Bridge Mill

    Sat 20 Oct 2012
    Class Three spent a fantastic morning at Bridge Mill.
    They satrted off by feeding the ducks and then went to look at the sheep.
    We learn't about their wool and how Rosie, their owner, uses their fleeceto knit jumpers. We saw how she dyes the wool and spins it into a yarn. The dye she uses comes from different parts of a plant and makes all sorts of colours.
    It was very interesting and we had a lovely time learning about wool.
  • Dartmoor - Autumn 2012

    Fri 19 Oct 2012
    The children in Year Six went up onto Dartmoor for the first time this year and as you can see from these two photos we had very mixed weather.
    The walk was around 10 miles in length and took us to both the highest point on the moor, at High Willhays, and to the source of the River Taw, which we saw entering the Torridge, near the sea, last week.
    This was a perfect start to our annual Year Six Dartmoor Challenge and also a good opportunity to study another aspect of local geography.
  • Class 3 - Alpaca Trip

    Wed 17 Oct 2012
    Class Three have been down to the Alpaca farm near Ashwater.
    We had a great time finding out about this South American animal which lives wild in the Andes.
    Alpacas give really good wool.
    We will be going over to Bridge Mill to find out about how wool is prepared and used in a couple of weeks time.
  • Tom's Midnight Garden

    Tue 02 Oct 2012
    We had a fantastic time this afternoon (2nd October) when we were visited by a theatre company who performed "Tom's Midnight Garden".
  • Surf Club 2012

    Mon 01 Oct 2012
    Our surf club is up and running again this term.
    We're going down to Bude after school each Friday and as you can see from these photos we're already starting to get to our feet so we can properly ride the waves !!!
