Well done to Noah P, who has been awarded a HMA for the extensive amount of reading he has completed over the Christmas break. Sophia R has impressed her teachers with a fantastic story continuation. Simi H and Chaya C have both really impressed Miss Lake with their superb attitudes to learning during their first week back at school.

Mrs Knight has been very impressed by Harry G’s brilliantly descriptive writing about a storm at sea. Sticking with Year Five, three pupils have been praised for their outstanding artwork. Oliver G, Alexander A and Henry K produced some excellent artwork in the style of Henry M.

Autumn Term Sports Awards:

Mr Hodgkins was delighted to award Most Improved Rugby Player Awards to Johannes (U9) and Thomas C (U10). Both boys were absent at the end of last term, so missed out on receiving their awards at the time.
