We’re going Jubilee-tastic at St Ives today! Our Nursery children have come in fit for a queen & looking fabulous! They can’t wait for their Jubilee party later.

Her Majesty the Queen & her family joined us for a BBQ lunch today!

Year 2 enjoyed a lovely (if wet!) trip to the Queen Elizabeth Country Park in the South Downs today, to support their work on national parks. They climbed Butser Hill in record time & found some fascinating creatures while pond dipping.

Year 6 pupils are finding out what it takes to be a parent this week as they take part in the Flour Baby Project. Each pupil has to look after their Flour baby (or babies - a couple of pupils have chosen to look after twins!) 24 hours a day for a week. They’re all extremely enthusiastic & diligent now, but let’s see how they’re coping in a couple of days!

Years 5 and 6 went back in time today learning what it was like to be taught in the Victorian era at Welshpool Museum. Some of them even had to wear dunce hats!

Fantastic afternoon of Athletics as we invited children from Year 2 at Grayswood & Camelsdale Schools to compete in short and long distance running, relays, ball throwing and hurdles. A wonderful introduction to track and field. Thank you to Grayswood and Camelsdale for coming.

Years 3 & 4 are in high spirits this morning, which is hardly surprising as they’re off to Kingswood on the Isle of Wight for three fantastic days of non-stop activities & fun! Have a brilliant time kids & we look forward to hearing all about it when you’re back on Friday!

Year 4 have been studying Earth & Space this term, discovering more about the awe-inspiring universe & our Solar System. They have been travelling through space (virtually!), making scale models of our Milky Way, & this week learning how night & day are created as pupils took the roles of the Sun, Moon & Earth, spinning & orbiting around each other.

Year 6 pupils are taking part in Bikeability’s cycle training programme this week. The daily training sessions will leave the children with the skills, knowledge & understanding to cycle safely on roads now & in the future.

Wonderful to see so many toddlers at our Toddler Tuesday event this morning in spite of the drizzle. In fact, the drizzle made us busier than ever. We made binoculars, we hunted for bugs, we played in the mud kitchen, we climbed & last, but not least, we finished the morning with cookies & cake! We hope to see you all again on 14th June for our last Toddler Tuesday event of the academic year.
