  • Christmas Carols 2015

    Sat 20 Dec 2014

    We spent a wonderful time in our village church celebrating Christmas on the last day of term and it was great that over sixty parents were able to join us.

    We've had a very busy time in school recently and the Christmas break is likely to be just the same.

    It was great to be able to spend a peaceful hour away from all of this, to sing a few Christmas carols and to think about what Christmas is all about.

    We hope that everyone has a good Christmas.

    The wonderful world ofPablo Archimboldo's Circus pf Dreams came to Bradworthy this Christmas when we performed to three packed audiences and over six hundred people !

    It was a wonderful experience for all of us and something we're going to remember forever.
    We've been working hard for weeks and every second of our hard wrok was worth it when we got our third standing ovation on Thursday evening.

  • Christmas Disco 2014

    Thu 18 Dec 2014

    We had an amazing time !
  • Christmas Dinner 2014

    Wed 17 Dec 2014

    Thank you to Janet, Ange, Tara and Natalie in our kitchen for working so hard to cook us such an amazing Christmas Dinner !!

    The adults waited on us so we didin't have to line and we could get on with the party.
    As always our food was delicious and as well as this there was Christmas music, balloons, crackers and "party poppers".
    We didn't have to wear our uniforms which gave us the chance to dress for Christmas and lots of people wore Christmas jumpers.

    Everyone thought it was a fantastic party !

  • Nativity 2014

    Tue 16 Dec 2014
    Our nativity play was called Sparkle.
    We've been working to get ready for weeks and it was great to get to the performance.
    Our school hall was packed with over a hundred people who had a brilliant time watching us.
    We were a bit nervious before we went on but everyone clapped and cheered and we had a great time.
    Afterwards everyone said how well we acted and sang and what a great show we put on.
    Everyone said they were proud of us and we were proud of ourselves too.

  • Christmas Fayre 2014

    Tue 09 Dec 2014

    Our Year Six children run our Christmas Fayre each year as a business project.
    Each House Team has a budget of £30 and they have to make the biggest profit.
    As you can see in addition to selling craft items they also set up and ran loads of different activities, games and competitions.
    People from the local area ran twenty craft stalls in our school hall and the Christmas music came from our wonderful Brass Band and Ukelele Group.

    This year winning team were Puffins who raised £208, but all four teams did fantastically well and the overall profit was an amazing £580.

    The craft sale raised nearly £300 and we'd like to thank our PTA for their hard work organising this.

  • Chocolate Making

    Mon 08 Dec 2014
    In class 2 this term we have been learning about chocolate. Last week, with the help of Sarah Curtis and Alison Stubbs and their Thermomixers, we made chocolate - from scratch. We looked at and tasted cacao beans, cacao nibs, cacao butter and learned where it comes from and how it is produced. We then had the opportunity to see the Thermomixers in action. They ground the cacao nibs, melted and mixed together with the cacao butter or coconut oil and added natural sweetness using maple syrup. Everyone had the chance to design their own chocolate, adding different toppings and flavourings. And most importantly, we got to taste it. It was very different from the very sweet milky chocolate we are used to, but it was rich and delicious, and healthy too.
