Harvest Festival

Please take some time to look at the beautiful photos from Harvest festival.  A fantastic effort from all children (and staff) for the beautiful songs, poems, prayers and fabulous fruit!
The parcels were successfully delivered to the community by some very enthusiastic children.  
A huge thank you to all those who contributed food for our harvest table and an enormous thank you to the lovely parents and adults who gave up their time to help bag up the food and deliver it (sometimes at high speed).  As you can see from the photos, some of our helpers were very fresh faced! The full range of photos can be see on the slideshow below the collage.

Happy Harvest.

Times table practice

As you may be aware, the children at school take a times table test every day, practicing tables at home to help them improve their score or time.  As promised to parents tonight, I have found a copy of a times table game to help children practice tables at home against the clock.  They can choose to practice a set of tables they find difficult, practice a random selection of all or even choose division/inverse questions.
This is an executable file which needs to be downloaded.  It is perfectly safe to do so.  Windows may try to block the game as it was not created by a large company (only created by my husband).

Enjoy!

Spellbinder 2015

We were treated today with another visit from The Spellbinder.  Unfortunately, Spellbinder lady is still not very well but we send her our love and best wishes.

It is difficult, with just the aid of a camera, to capture the magic Spellbinder brings with him every time he visits.  The only way you can get a clue is to look at the faces of the children who are enthralled by his stories and giggle during his songs and dances.  Please enjoy the pictures below.
