  • Dinosaur Hunt !

    Thu 28 Feb 2013
    Reception have been building dinosaurs in school but they couldn't find any real ones when they looked for them on our field .....
    ..... so this February they went looking for them in the forest at Rosemoor Gardens.
    Even with the help of their ranger they didn't have any luck.
    There were lots of "little monsters" in the woods - but no dinosaurs !!!
  • Hockey Champions

    On Monday 11th February 10 pupils went to Holsworthy community collage, to play a tournament. We went with Sir, Ian and Di.
    There was eight teams that was split in to two groups. One team from Bradworthy went into
    one of the groups and the other team went in the other group.
    One team was called Bradworthy and the other team was called Bradworthy Academy.
    We both played 3 games and then there was a final match.
    All the games were really fun and we had some great results.

  • Bude Cross Country 2013

    Tue 19 Feb 2013

    We took over twenty children over to Bude last Friday where they took place in a cross country running event on Summerleaze Down.
    School's and Colleges from across the South West were present so the standard was very high.

    Our best placed runners were Maddy (10th in the under nine girl's race) and Josh (12th in the under eleven boy's race), however most of our runners finished in the top fifty which is a great achievement.

    The races were very challenging but we had a great time.

  • Burton Art Gallery

    Fri 15 Feb 2013

    On Friday 1st February Class 4 visited the Burton Art Gallery and Museum.
    This term, as part of our topic, we have been investigating treasure,

    what it means to different societies and how people learn from such historical artefacts.

    We have been learning that Archaeology is the study of the past through material remains.

    In the morning we spent our time building an historical picture of Bideford, using the artefacts from the museum. In the afternoon, we enjoyed the art exhibition on display, discussing our likes and dislikes, as well as sketching our favourite artwork.

  • Swimming Gala

    Thu 14 Feb 2013

    On the  22nd of January the swimming team from Class 6 entered the Holsworthy swimming Gala. The teams who were involved were Bradworthy, Bradford, Clawton, Holsworthy and Ashwater.

    The swimming team won all of their races except one, in which they came 2nd. The races involved a mixture of fun and serious events, the sizes varying from 6 To 24 children in each race. This year the swimming team won whole competition. This is a massive achievement as last year the team came second.

    We really hope that we will do well again next year and come back with our heads held high.

  • Hockey v. Kilkhampton

    Thu 14 Feb 2013
    Driving rain didn't stop us from going over to Kilkhampton School this week for two hockey matches. We've been working on our skills at school each week and this was a great chance to test ourselves.
    We were really pleased with the results of both matches.
    Our first match was a convincing 4 - 0 win and in our second we played really well to come back from 2 - 0 down to draw 2 - 2.
    Hopefully we'll get the chance to play again soon !
