Life Skills 2012

Fri 08 Jun 2012

Every Year we take part in Junior Life Skills and as usual this year's event was brilliant.
We went over to Barnstaple Football Club where we spent the afternoon working with services like the Police, the Fire Service, St John's Ambulance and the Coastguard.
The photos show us wearing goggles which made it feel like you were drunk, practicing the recovery position, an oil fire and the bacteria which is on our hands.

Teaching Appointment

Thu 07 Jun 2012

We are delighted to announce that we have appointed Robin Lewis as our new class teacher and that he will be with us from the start of the new school year in September 2012.

As many of you will know Robin worked for us previously as a sports coach before leaving a few years ago to complete an art degree and to train as a teacher.
He has spent the last twelve months at East the Water School in Bideford and I know that he is delighted with the prospect of returning to Bradworthy.

On behalf of everyone at Bradworthy I would like to welcome Robin and say how much we are all looking forward to working together for our children in the future.

On the Beach

Thu 07 Jun 2012

Our trip to the sculpture garden at Broomhill gave us loads of ideas so we decided to go and get some materials to build with.
This meant a "very hard working" morning on the Beach at Northam Burrows where we collected driftwood.

Sorry - Year Six

Wed 06 Jun 2012

You should have got this information last week - sorry you didn't !

We've been really busy recently with things like walking on Dartmoor and climbing, and in addition to this I've been very busy getting ready for the interviews to find Mr Furber's replacement.
The up-shot of all of these excuses is that you didn't get a letter about a planned trip on Monday 11th June.

The photo shows last year's Year Six at Broomhill Sculpture Garden on a visit last year and as well as repeating this trip we'll be going to the Junior Life Skills event in Barnstaple.

You should get the letter through the post later this week.

Broomhill Sculpture Garden

Wed 06 Jun 2012

Year Six have been developing the school grounds recently.
One of the things that we want to do is incorporate some sculpture into the things we are doing.
We decided to go and visit the sculpture garden at Broomhill to get some ideas.
Keep checking our web-site to find out what we create.

Penzance Update - End of Day Three

The trip has now come to an end, and everyone is safely home. We had a fabulous day at Cornwall Crealy yesterday, with lots of fun on adventure areas, play centres and the rides! As you can see from the pictures below everyone finished the trip in incredibly high spirits.

Throughout the entire trip the children have been absolutely wonderful. Their excellent attitude, nature and behaviour has been commented upon everywhere that we have been, and I have been particularly impressed with their 'get stuck in' approach to everything. I would like to thank them for making the trip such an enormous success and making the past three days such fun! They should be very proud of themselves - I know that everyone in school is incredibly proud of the way that they have approached the entire experience. I would also like to thank Val Brown, Paul Moulton and Mike Furber for all of their hard work during the week making the trip run smoothly! Hopefully everyone is now enjoying a relaxing weekend ready for the week ahead!

Everyone enjoyed celebrating Libby's birthday - especially when there was cake involved! Whether Libby will ever forgive Miss Daniel for making everyone sing in the middle of Crealy is another question!

Penzance Update - Day Three

Mon 04 Jun 2012

It's almost ten o'clock, and we have just returned from a fabulous evening at Laser Tag! We were split into teams and played against one another in a pirate themed course. Everyone had lots of fun, and the blue team were victorious - winning by an enormous 20,000 points!!

As you can see from the team photos, everyone has had a great time playing Laser Quest this evening - there have been lots of requests to play again tomorrow!

We're heading off for hot chocolate before bed now. Miss Daniel will start typing up the postcards in a while, so please check back to have a look at them! We'll also check in at breakfast time tomorrow!

It's coming up to 7pm on Day Two and we have just finished our evening meal and headed up to change. Today has been action packed, and we have had an amazing amount of fun! Unfortunately the weather has scuppered some of our original plans. Luckily our back up plans have worked out well, and we had a brilliant morning exploring Pendennis Castle in Falmouth before heading to the National Maritime Museum this afternoon.

The weather has once again beaten us this evening and the Minack Theatre have contacted us to tell us that the Twits has been cancelled. (We've had a sneaky look at their live webcam and we are relieved as it looks fairly miserable at the moment!!). Luckily, our second back up plan of the day has worked out (!!) and we are heading off to a laser quest centre for this evenings activity. When we get back this evening Miss D will do her best to update this properly with lots more pictures!!

Everyone has slept really well and we are currently eating an enormous breakfast before we set off on today's adventures. As you can see from the photo most of us are bright eyed and bushy tailed, and looking forward to todays activities (even the teachers!). Thank you for your messages so far - its lovely to hear from everyone while we are away! Keep checking back as we will try to update again this evening!

It's now nearly half past eleven and everyone is asleep. We hope you enjoy reading our postcards below!!

Hello everyone!

I am missing everyone including Bob even though he catches rabbits! Today I came second in the boat-race, and I loved ten pin bowling because they played “I’ve got the moves like Jagger”! I’m looking forward to Crealy and coming home, but don’t tell Dylan I got a present for him!

Penzance Update - Day Three

Mon 04 Jun 2012

It's almost nine oclock and we are just finishing another enormous breakfast! We are all packed and ready to go so we will be heading off to Crealy very soon! Everyone slept really well, and Miss Daniel had to do several wake up calls this morning!

Most importantly - it's Libby's birthday today so the children and teachers have had lots of fun decorating the dining room and surprising her when she walked in with a rousing chorus of Happy Birthday!!

We are all looking forward to a fun filled day at Crealy! We will see everyone at school at 6pm this evening!!

Penzance Update - Day One

Sun 03 Jun 2012

It's just after midnight on Day One and everyone is fast asleep! We've had a fabulous evening ten-pin bowling and disco dancing, and all of the children have gone to bed with enormous smiles!

We hope you enjoy our team photos and action shots! The winners from each lane are looking forward to receiving their prizes during the week! (And Miss D is very much looking forward to her prize as she had the highest score of the evening - what will Mr Furber buy?!)

Everyone enjoyed their dinner before we headed to Falmouth for a game of ten-pin bowling!

It's early evening on Day One and we are just finishing our dinner and getting ready to go bowling! We've had a fabulous day at the Eden Project and really enjoyed our rainforest session!!

These photos show us during our Rainforest Rangers session where we learnt how to use plants that grow in the rainforest to help us survive. We were officially awarded a 'Rainforest Ranger' certificate which means that we passed our survival tests! William (our resident Rainforest Expert) has spent the rest of the day guarding the certificate very carefully!

Jasmine and Phoebe acted as wonderful ambassadors for the school in The Core - the hands on section of the Eden Project! They certainly recieved some funny looks!

Having arrived at the hostel we have all found our bedrooms and settled in! The staff were then kept entertained by everyone's attempts to make their beds - I'm sure the photograph below gives everyone an idea of the carnage that followed!

We are just finishing an enormous dinner and heading off for the evening! Please check back later for some amusing bowling photographs!!

The Year Four Residential Trip is to Penzance this year.
